Random Pics


Your probably wondering why I am putting a photo of mom laying on the bed, I had to show you the shirt that she was wearing, and tell you what my little boy Caleb did, he was playing with grandma on the bed, he was tickling her, he asked what was on her shirt, she told him that they were Poka dots, he got this look on his face and he proceeded to poke her belly, and he says "Poka Dots" it was quiet comical.

cute photos of caleb





Caleb loved the water at the reception center, he sat on the bench for a long time just watching the waterfalls, and he kept saying "Wow Pretty" I think that he wanted to play in the water, but it made him happy just to sit and relax. When we said that it was time to go he threw a fit, but as we were leaving he said "fun." The photo of Caleb laying on the bed was cute, he had brought the book to daddy and asked him "daddy please read me a book" with those puppy dog eyes, how could you resist.

Shirelle & Gifford Wedding

Poor Caleb...

Caleb will enjoy going with grandpa camping when he is a little be older.
This photo is of the ground cover in my front flower bed, I took a pic, because it was so pretty, I love that everything outside is so green and the flowers are in bloom...


This past week has been a bit challenging, Caleb got sick on Monday evening, he had stomach problems all day Tuesday, and fever all day Wednesday, and he has been sick since then, he keeps dumping everything, I took him into the doctor on Friday, the doctor told me that he had rota virus, and that he will have dumping for four to six weeks and will be sick for about six to eight more days, I feel so bad for him. Every time that he eats of drinks anything he cries and tells me that his stomach hurts. I will be glad when he is feeling better! I makes me sad to see him this way. Nathaniel had rota virus when he was about the same age, but they had to hospitalize him for a few days, I am glad that Caleb hasn't had to be in the hospital!


Nathaniel went with his Grandpa camping for awhile, Grandpa said they would be gone about three to four weeks, but I don't know if it will really last that long, probably about a week or so, Caleb is really missing his big brother, every morning he runs into his room and looks everywhere for Nathaniel, but unable to find him he gets a little bit said and says "Where Nano?" and gives you a look that is so sad. Nano is his way of saying Nathaniel's name. I have really missed him also, I am not used to not having him here with us, it is very unusual to have him gone for a long period of time, although it is good for him to spend some time with Grandpa and go fishing and camping. I love him and know that he will learn a lot while he is camping, and I am sure he will treasure this time with his grandpa. It brings back memories of me spending time up in the mountains with my family and my grandparents, I always loved it , we had a lot of good times, I have of love for the outdoors and camping thanks to my parents who took us camping every summer, and my grandparents who were always there with us. Family camping continues, although not all of the family can't be there since they live so far away, I'm sure that will change when schooling is over. I love all of my family, thanks for all of the wonderful times we have had with each other, have a great week.

Nathaniel's Day...




On Wednesday the 28Th Nathaniel will celebrate his ninth birthday, we decided to spend today how he would like too. First he wanted to go to the store and pick out his birthday gift, he decided that he wanted a bicycle. So he went through all of the bikes and picked out a bike that is red and black, he also wanted a pump for the tires, (good idea) then he wanted to go to lunch, his choice was to go to Red Robin, we went to eat, it was fun they brought a mud pie out for his birthday, he enjoyed it. Then back home we came, finally the rain slowed down, Nathaniel got his helmet on and rode around for awhile, Caleb wasn't very happy, he thought that Nathaniel should share his bike, Nathaniel stoped riding and let Caleb sit up on the bike, it made Caleb's day. Happy Birthday Nathaniel, We Love You So Very Much! May your day be full of fun and excitement!!!!!!

Nine years ago was one of the most treasurable moments in my life, I gave birth to a two pound 15 oz little boy, Nathaniel Deloy Pratt, after many problems the doctor told us he had to be taken Cesarean, I wasn't ready but Nathaniel was, he was born twelve weeks early. We were very blessed, he was born early but didn't have any major problems, just that his lungs weren't quiet developed, he had to be on a ventilator for about two weeks, and was in the hospital for seven weeks. I remember after the c-section I wasn't able to see Nathaniel, because they had to rush him in to the NICU and stabilize him. The first memory of seeing Nathaniel was a photo, I wasn't able to see him in person for about a day, it was an emotional experience, not knowing if I would see him alive, the doctors told us that he had a 50% chance of survival. When I was able to see him it was one of the sweetest, most unforgettable moments in my life, I was a mom, I felt like the luckiest person alive, the lord blessed me with the most perfect little boy ever. Although we knew that the next few weeks would be scary, they were all worth every moment! When we decided to name him Nathaniel we didn' t know the meaning of the name, I looked up the names meaning, it meant "Gift from God" He was definitely a gift from god. Nathaniel has such a sweet spirit, a little more full of life then most children, I believe that is why he thrived as a preemie, he is one of the best gifts in my life, I am so happy that he choose me as his mother! Happy Birthday Nathaniel I love you!!!!
