dear pratt.

dear pratt,

oh how you continue to grow! here are a few things in honor of your (belated) six month birthday...

you love to ride in the stroller. sitting up, of course. laying down is apparently for the birds. you want to be sitting as straight as you can. leaning forward is best, actually.

applesauce is your favorite food yet. i almost can't get it in your mouth fast enough. you sit up so well in your highchair. we hardly ever use the bumbo seat anymore.

you grab at anything and everything within your reach. hair. earrings. necklaces. scarves. you name it...you love it. and want it in your mouth.

you have learned to scooch. half scoot, half crawl. i guess it should be called a croot. but i like scooch. i have it on video...but we live in the country and our signal isn't good...so it's hard to upload videos out here :) maybe next time i go "into town" to your dad's office, i'll upload it.

you are such a happy baby. even when you're tired. and exhausted...you still smile for people. it melts my heart.

you love your daddy the most. every single time you see him, you begin to squirm with delight. it's so sweet. and i love that you love him so much. it reminds me of why i love him so much too.

you love ice cold water. from my glass. you'll drink it by a straw. (like, me dropping it in your mouth from a straw) but you most like to put your mouth on the glass...then drink. big gulps. welp, see you later. just kidding....that's a line from a great movie. we'll review that later :)

anyway...here are some pictures from tonight. we love you pumpkin.

wow. that's insane, Hannah. Drinking from a glass? We're not even able to sit up on our own yet - and yet you're telling me that in 2.5 months, she could be sipping from a glass? Good job, mama - he's growing just like he's supposed to.

loving the movie trivia...we've got no food, we've got no jobs, our pets' heads are falling off!

you know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. - dr. seuss

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.
