shake rattle and roll.

pratt pretty much directs his invisible choir every single day. at all times of the day. he swings his arms around more than a monkey. seriously, he really does. they are constantly moving. i rarely get a picture of him being still because he's moving and squirming all the time.

this is good, i know. so nancy asked me the other day if he had any rattles. i didn't remember getting any rattles. i mean, he got a silver one with this initials on it...but i don't really want him banging that one on the floor or anything.

so i looked through his closet. and there on the shelf in a blue basket were about fifteen colorful rattles/chews/etc. thank you to my small group girls! i remember that you guys were the ones to give us all these! i didn't fully appreciate them until yesterday! so when pratt has excellent fine motor skills, i'll be sure and tell him it's all because of you girls! :)

so here he is playing with his infantino rattle. this thing is gigantic. and colorful. and i thought it might be easiest for him to see and grasp.










this has to be my favorite. i love his little expression here. this is the smile i see when i think of him smiling. i love love love it.



he's almost got it...



oh, so close...



success! wooohooo!


let the cursive begin!

just kidding...i hate cursive. :)

About Me

My photo
i'm a girl who likes to write. not a girl that's necessarily good at writing. it's cathartic, i think. and boy do i need that from time to time. i married a wonderful man named clint in may of 2007. he is everything i am not. he is calm. he makes plans. he is organized. his truck is always clean. his clothes are hung by types of shirt/color/size/etc. i'm full of nervous energy. i'm spur of the moment. i can't ever find what i'm looking for. we live in my car...pretty much. i'm lucky if my clothes are within ten feet of my closet. God gave us a precious angel of a baby in september of 2008. his name is pratt allen. he is 2.5 years old.we have another little one on the way. his name is max wesley. and he is due may 19th. somehow i'll be the mother of two boys. craaaaa.zy. i spend my days cleaning house. picking worms and caterpillars out of the flower beds. cooking meals. shopping at target. washing clothes. playing on the floor. reading books. doing puzzles. traveling to sonic. and the library. and blogging. i hope you enjoy our blog. feel free to leave a comment. hopefully it's a nice one. i tend to wear my heart on my sleeve.
