Pratt is 11 months old

where have the last 11 months gone? granted, the first month or two did seem to drag. night after night - getting up multiple times to feed this precious child. now, though, i can't believe it has almost been a year since pratt came into our lives. what a joy he has been! i think there is going to be a bit of depression next month when he turns one - july 25. i just love this time with him and he really likes this time with us. we all know that will most likely change. he won't want to be around us... we may not want to be around him. you know, seven year olds, 16 year olds, aren't as fun or as cute as an infant. oh well! we'll take it all as it comes and make the best out of it. pratt is so wonderful, i just expect that he will be his entire life.

Pratt has started holding his cup, for the most part. he usually has to be in his high chair with it somewhat reclined. he didn't want it first thing this morning, so i just left in on one of our end tables. next thing i know, he gets it and helps himself. he just needed a little help tilting it back... see it's resting on the ottoman. too cute not to share...
