Savannah's Milestone

On May 7th, Savannah rolled over all by herself! I was sorting the dirty clothes and J said that Savannah was going to roll over. Shortly after he started recording, she rolled over from her belly to her back! We were so excited. Since then, she has learned to roll from her back to her belly. She is rolling like a pro!

My apologies for the messy living room and my appearance, ew! I was knee deep in chores. Although I was a hot mess, my house eventually was clean again!

Keeping Tabs On Mommy

I put Savannah down for a nap a couple of days ago. I thought that I would use that time to try to clean up a little. In the midst of me cleaning, I could feel someone staring at me. I turned around to check on Savannah and she was staring right at me!

She wasn't asleep very long so I guess she only needed a cat nap...

...or maybe she was ticked because I woke her up!

Solid Food

On April 27th Savannah tried solid for the first time. For her delight, I prepared her oatmeal mixed with formula. Naturally, she threw a fit but by the end of her meal, she was pretty calm and content.

This was after her first bite. She realized very quickly that the mush I was giving her was not mama's milk! She let me know all about it, too! Whenever she cries REALLY hard, she turns really red and splotchy. This was one of those moments.

This is toward the end of her meal. I think she realized that the oatmeal wasn't so bad.

Mother's Day E-Card

Jeremiah usually send me e-cards for holidays or just because. This time was no different. For Mother's Day he sent me two e-cards and I just had to post them. The first one is my favorite. The second one isn't as funny but it still made me laugh pretty hard. I will probably watch these everyday for the next week. Jeremiah, thank you for a great Mother's Day weekend!

Another Easter Under Our Belt

Just like every Easter, there were Easter egg hunts, food, church, family...and Prickett pictures! You know you love to see us in action! Anyway, here is our attempt at ANOTHER family picture. We never got a "perfect" picture but that doesn't surprise me. This Easter I resolved to just have fun and whatever pictures we took would be okay. Here we gooooo!!!

This is the first picture we took and I should have left well enough alone. But nooooo...I wanted a picture where Scarlett's hand wasn't in her face and Savannah didn't have the "what tha" look on her face. Unfortunately, this is the only family picture that Liz's entire face was included. Moving on...

Scarlett has now decided to stick her tongue out and we never saw Liz's entire face again. So we try again...


Now, my smile is crooked and Scarlett is pointing at who knows what.

What is Scarlett and Savannah looking at?! Geez!

Oh well! Like I said, I should have left well enough alone.

THE GIRLS

So then I decided that I wanted a picture of just the girls.

This is the first one we took and it's not bad. Once again, I should have left well enough alone. But nooooo...I just had to have a picture with Savannah's gummy smile.

Well, I got my smile from Savannah but now Scarlett is more interested in the grass/weeds. We've always had a nice green backyard and I still can't quite figure out why it's having issues this year. Currently, I'm letting Scotts and the lawn guy deal with it. Anyway, I digress...

Everyone is smiling and I have "THE" picture. DARN IT!!! IT'S OUT OF FOCUS!!!

We try again and Scarlett is not having it.

Scarlett is forcing her smile and Savannah is on the verge of being done. Surprisingly, Liz did pretty good at looking at the camera the whole time. Usually, she's the one looking off or looking and the younger two.

Close, but not good enough.

We try again and Scarlett just walks off! I guess that's a wrap.


PRICKETT WOMEN
I decided that it would be fun for all of the Prickett women to take a picture for Jeremiah.

I still couldn't figure out what Scartlett kept looking at.

Everyone is now smiling and Scarlett has moved on to playing with her dress. Urgh!!!

Liz has slipped backed into her old habit of looking at Scarlett during pictures.

Scarlett smiling in the wrong direction. Urgh! We were so close.

Who knows?!

Good enough and ready to move on.

MR & MRS PRICKETT

THEN, as tradition would have it, Mr. Man and I had to take a picture together. By now, we should all know where this is going...

...and he's off!

Still being goofy!

After several goofy pictures, I finally got a good one. But wait! It's out of focus, shoot!!!

Much better :o)


J & THE GIRLS

Now the fun REALLY starts! I had this brilliant idea that Jeremiah should take a picture with the girls. Without thinking about it, I just threw the kids in and started snapping. He wanted all these kids and now he's got 'em!

Doesn't he look like he is having fun?!

What's the matter J? Your hands full? I'm not sure who Scarlett was blowing kisses to but it was fun to see Mr. Man struggle for a few minutes, he he he!

I'm pretty sure he's asking me if we are done yet. My response: NOOOOO! We're just getting started...SMILE!!!

They're starting to wear him down. I think Scarlett was trying to console him. I'm pretty sure he is done.

I never got a decent picture of Jeremiah and the girls. As far as I am concerned, these are much better and totally priceless!

Misc. Pictures

I don't have many pictures of Savannah and I so I had to get one :o)

Say cheese!

Her mad face.

Her sad face.

Her now can I go play face.
