I’ve always been thankful for the way Amy and Byron helped us welcome Sadie into the world and how they have included her into all our travels and time together happily and more effortlessly than we could have hoped for. When we found out that they were expecting Wyatt, I hoped that we would be able to reciprocate the love and attention that they gave our little one. Well, let me tell you, it’s not too difficult to fall completely in love with Wyatt Grover Wallace Kneller. This kid is the definition of cute and engaging, and the Pratt family is smitten…maybe not quite as much as his mom and dad…but who’s keeping track?

Babies are great in general, but there is something really special about babies who are related to you. I’m sure nature intended it this way, but that doesn’t make it any less amazing. I remember having that same feeling when my nephews, Brennan and Braden, were born. You just love them so much. So, needless to say, this little guy is really special and watching Sadie play with him was so much fun. We had a great, low-key weekend of walks around Greenlake, swinging at the park, making pumpkin-spiced doughnuts, crawling around on the rug cracking ourselves up and, of course, the obligatory visit to U Village.

The weekend flew by, we were sad to leave and now we are looking forward to our trip to Mexico in December. Sadie and Wyatt might not have siblings of their own, but we hope that they will grow up to love each other and be great sister/brother-cousins. We miss you Wyatt and we are so glad to have you in the family!
Sadie's too big for the baby swings, but wants to hang with Wyatt.

What a beautiful blog story….I like your expression of inclusiveness…such a good example to Sadie. Have a great time in Mexico. You are going to have so much fun watching the children grow up knowing each other so well.
Great post. You did a nice job capturing some of our most fun moments. Thanks for making the trip up…we loved having you and are really looking forward seeing you again in a few weeks!
That pic of Wyatt and Byron is great! Looks like you had fun. I wish I could have seen you guys–next time.
