Elizabeth Hope Pratt

Betsey was baptized this weekend!!!

Our Oldest Daughter is now an official Member of the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! She was baptized on April 30th 2011! We arranged a special time so that all of the family could come. Her Uncle Steve and Uncle Nathan gave awesome talks on the Holy Ghost and Baptism. Kaylee her 7 year old cousin played I am a child of God on the Piano for a special Musical number where her cousins sang. Glen Baptized her and did a great job. (thanks Steve) Grandpa Wood and one of our best friends Shaun were the witnesses. Here are a couple of pictures that we caught!!!!

We had a great weekend! Thank you to all who came and a big Thank You to Abby who made the dress that I am completely in love with!!!!!

DON"T FAINT!!!!

I know you can't believe I Blogged... It is true... I did it! I might even change the photo on top but maybe not I love the picture of the 5 kids up there!

This summer we had lots of fun with CAKE!!!

This First one Is Baden's first Birthday... we had a Rubber Ducky Party!! It was so fun!

This next one is Livvy's 3rd Birtday party.. She told me she wanted a Tipsy Cake!!!

This was a cake for Faith... it was her first birthday and she had a Tea Party!

This Is Jaxon's Cake from Last year we had to do a Thomas Cake. If I can find a picture we did a swimming pool cake this year. I will have to dig for that one!

Here are some Cakes from the Past..... This was Livvy's First Birthday!!!! Love the Princess!

This was CJ's cake we made when we lived in Spanish Fork....

Well this has taken forever!!! So I am not going to look for anymore pictures of cakes... when I come across them I hopefully will post them or at least remember where they are!

Post is now complete... you can faint now because I posted once in a blue moon!!!!

GRRRR I NEED TO BE BETTER!

okay so it has been forever.....and a ton has happened. My home computer died and the DSH took it to be fixed and then when it came home the recovery disk accidently ran and it wiped the whole machine. 10 years of photography is gone! (((BACK UP YOUR PHOTOS RIGHT NOW)))) So I had to morn that loss for about 2 weeks and it is still a senstive subject. Then Anthony turned 10!!! wow that made me feel old. My oldest son is in double digits. Then I was in Loan training for a week for work.....then one night we were sitting at the table at Artic Circle letting the kidos play. I was showing my new program to a friend and Baden was in the car seat on the table so we could feed him ice cream....well as we sat there he was kicking and I went to move his carseat and in the process the 32 oz Pepsi spilled all over my laptop. I grabbed it really fast and dried it off and did what I could but it still got the keyboard and now it is messed up. GRRRR I was just glad it was me and not Glen or the kids that did it... cause I would have been even more mad. I guess I just like to ruin my own stuff. However I am tired of my stuff getting messed up!

Other than that.... Baden is doing so good... He is rolling over but likes to pull himself up almost crawling, rather then roll over. He won't take a bottle very good but we are working on that. Betsey turns 7 on the 28th! We just redid the girls room... I will have to post some pictures. I love how it turned out. We did it in Pink and Brown.

We also went to Bear Lake for spring break.... And of course we forgot the camera so we bought one I will have to see if I can post pictures. Well I have to run, so that is it for the super fast update!

Baden!!!

Okay so I was going to wait for pictures to post, but I waited too long and the home computer died!!! Hopefully the pictures just have a "cold" and will return when the computer is resurrected! But I now have GOOD NEWS and BAD NEWS!

Well most of you know that BADEN is now OFF his OXYGEN!!!! As of January 11th the oxygen tank no longer lives at our house. It is so nice to be able just to pack him up go. I can also not worry about tripping over any oxygen tubes.

So now on to the BAD news......BADEN has RSV. Yep just one month after coming off the oxygen he gets sick. He now has to have breathing treatments every 4-6 hours. If this helps and he starts to get better then we won't have to check him into the hospital. However because of this VIRUS he also has ear infections. So the last couple of nights have been spent with me and him in the LAZY BOY trying to get some kind of SLEEP and I am here to tell you that it is NOT working... Here's to hoping he gets BETTER SOON!

A New Year A New Update!!!

Wow what a crazy couple of Months!!! Now time to catch up...

So I made Christmas Cards do you think that they got mailed out? Nope they sure didn't. Some people were lucky to get one hand delivered to them but if you live outside of Utah.... well Sorry!

Christmas was good to us this year...the boys got legos and transformers and action figures.

Betsey got an MP3 player and loves it. She now knows, by heart, like 5 new Taylor Swift songs. Today I learned how to put the new primary songs on it. So hopefully she will be able to pick those up and help the other primary kids get to know the music.

Kayla got a Tag Reader and loves it. The only time that she gets upset is when the reader tells her that they batteries need to be changed, or when Olivia steals it.

Olivia... oh what to do with Olivia.... she has started her terrible two's and boy she is good at them. She will cry for me to hold her and then cry because she is not with Daddy. Whenever she gets into trouble she has to have her blanket. Heaven help us if we can't find it!

Baden...well Baden is now 5 months old and yes still supposed to be on oxygen. I take it off every once in a while but last night he had a really bad night so it will go back on today! He has a Doctors appointment this week so we will see what is happening.

Tamma... well I managed to make the work schedule very nice for the Christmas break. Between Christmas Eve and Today I worked One Day! But got paid for the Holidays!!!!

Glen... well we spent quite a bit of time with the Pratt's for the Holidays.... Glen's Uncle Bart died and we traveled with his Brother Steve to Manti for the funeral. Then we made the rounds Christmas Day to see his Mom and then spent some time with Steve and Bernice. Then the Nephews came to our house to play mind games with Uncle Glen. Then we rang in the New Year with Steve's Family. Thanks to Aunt Bernice the kids learned how much noise they can make with Pots and Pans.......New years day we spent with the WHOLE Pratt family....

Here is to a GOOD NEW YEAR!!!!

Let's hope it is a good one!!!

I have great news about Baden but I wasn to post his picture with it so check back soon!

New Pictures!

My friend Cassie was taking a photography class and needed to practice... So we went out for a photo shoot! Six Kids in one good shot is so freaking hard to do. And most of these are just the five older kids....
I love the one where Livvy is the only one looking back and she is the only one in focus!

Baden and Betsey!


I love this one of Baden Yawning!!! I can't believe that he is already 3 months old. He is going to have a sleep test this week to see if we can take him off the oxygen!!!!!


This picture of Betsey turned out 100 times better then her school pictures!!!
I just need to figure out how to make the title picture smaller and still look good!

BADEN IS 6 WEEKS OLD!

Where have the last 6 weeks gone? On Thursday Baden had a breathing attack and we ended up at the Doctor's office. He just started to sneeze and cough and wasn't getting enough air. So I turned up the oxygen and about 10 minutes later he came around and fell asleep because he was so tired from fighting with this attack.

So at 6 weeks my "little" boy weighs in at 11 lbs 2 oz man I just don't know why they have to grow up!

We have been doing a few fun things with the family and we finely remembered to bring the camera and get some pictures. So here are some fun times with the Pratt Clan!

Labor Day.....Shooting guns and riding the ranger in the West Desert! Livvy doesn't like the Ranger and just wanted to sit in the chair with her Blanket!

Our First Cabin Visit (Daddy's Birthday)

And let's not forget that Baden has been good luck so far for the COUGARS!! They haven't lost a game since he has been born!!!
