Hello friends and family. The Pratt family has been busy as ever (reason why we have been so bad keeping our blog up to date). Lets just get started.
McKay has decided that he is no longer a baby. He no longer wants to be breast Fed. This has been hard for Jordan because nursing was usually the only time Jordan could slow down McKay and have some quality time. Jordan has told me that he is not a baby any more. I believe he is a baby as long as he sleeps in a crib and wears a diaper. McKay also has become a walker!!! This has been a welcome surprise. Everybody told us to enjoy the time we have before McKay walked. Jordan and I couldn't really understand until yesterday. Jordan, McKay and I decided to go on a walk (favorite hobby) after 20 minutes in a stroller, McKay wanted out to walk like his parents. Jordan and I agreed and got McKay out and placed him on the sidewalk. McKay got really excited walked five steps and then fell. Fell is the wrong word because it happened so fast and with so much power. McKay's head slammed into the concrete and you could her the duuud as it hit. Poor Jordan swooped him up only to see his nose bleeding from being grinded against the sidewalk. McKay was a champ and fought through the pain and played with his toys the rest of the day. McKay has a desire to be better understood. To accomplish this desire McKay has began to scream for no apparent reason. Whether he is happy or sad watching tv (mainly baby Einstein) or eating chicken nuggets (favorite food) McKay will scream to get us to pay attention (even if we are paying attention).
Jordan's brother Joseph and his "special someone" Julie came to visit us last weekend. It was great to have them visit. Besides Joseph was growing tiresome listening to McKay screaming (we all were) everyone had a good time. Jordan loves her family so much and when ever they make it up to Ontario, Jordan and the rest of the crew feel so lucky. Jordan has been doing so good since the last blog. She has been moved in symphony to a more important role (I forgot the name of it but...... IT IS A BIG DEAL.... IT'S HUGE) and played a concert that was a success. Jordan also had to go four days without a husband when I took off to the state tournament for the Nyssa boys basketball team.
Danny has been adjusting well to coming home right after school instead of going to practice. I love seeing the family more and helping out. The state tourney was great. My parents came up to Salem and became adopted into the Nyssa community. After the girls won the state championship dad was on the court hugging the coaching staff.
