11 months old!!

play time

taking a snooze on the couch

Lydia is now 11 months old and oh my word how time flies! She took 2 steps all by herself today...she promptly started clapping! He vocabulary consists of "uh - oh" , "mama", "dada", "baby", "woohoo" and "yay". She's beginning to have some seperation anxiety and while it's flattering, it also breaks my heart! She's got 5 teeth now and just starting grinding them! Not sure how I'm going to deal with that! She loves her Daddy and her face lights up when she see's him. She loves her new baby cousin Keegan...actually she's not really sure what to think of him yet, but I know they will love each other and be great friends!

Keegan Wallis Pratt















Meet the newest member of our family! My brother Jason & sister-in-law Heather welcomed Keegan Wallis Pratt yesterday at 5:38pm via c-section. He weighs 8lbs 1oz. and 19 in. long. He is perfect in every way. We got to witness my brother change a diaper...that was funny, and see the first moments of him bonding with his son.

9 months old and a Wedding!








I know I've been slacking and I apologize! Life has been a little hectic!
Lydia is almost 10 months old now. She's crawling all over the place. Standing up to everything she can and trying to stand on her own. She's waving "hi" and "bye" and puts her hands up as if she's saying "i don't know", it's pretty cute! We took her to the park for the first time yesterday. She wasn't sure what to think about the grass...she wouldn't crawl in it! Matt pushed her on the swing she even went down the slide.

Lydia fell asleep while playing!


On Easter,Lydia was eight months old. Big day for her...she started crawling! She is such a silly girl. She's got her second front tooth coming in and EVERYTHING goes in her mouth! She's been battling a bug, but we're hoping she's on the mend.

The wedding is less than a month away and we are getting excited. I had my first bridal shower, and this weekend I have another. Time has just flown by!

7 months old...oh my!


So silly...


Holding her own bottle...such a big girl!



Showing off her first tooth!!


Little Miss Lydia Vivian is our little ray of sunshine! She never ceases to amaze us. She is so animated and has the silliest facial expressions. She loves sitting up like a big girl, but once in a while that round bottom makes her topple over. She's got a flare for the dramatic...unfortunately she comes by it naturally(Matt, of course). She's quick to give us a good fake cry to get our attention and then quick to smile or laugh when she gets it. She makes everyday enjoyable.

At her 6 month check-up she weiged in at 19.4lbs and was 27 3/4 inches. Making her in the 95% for weight and 97th % for height. She has her first tooth showing and another coming. She's working on this crawling thing, and just today started pushing herself backwards.

She is a delight in every way.

6 months old!!!

Wow...half of a year has FLOWN by! Lydia is never ceases to amaze us. She's learning new things and displaying new personality triats every day. I think she's working up to crawling. She's rolls onto her tummy and rocks her body back and forth trying to scoot...we'll see! Matt and I just moved to a townhouse in Burlington. It's about 3 times bigger than the apartment we were in and Lydia has her own room now! As soon as we get all set up I will post some pictures. Wedding plans are coming right along. We truely are enjoying life everyday and loving our family time together.
