We had a fun pirate themed 2nd birthday party for Parker. All of his friends came and bounced their little hearts out (while eating cotton candy and snow cones between bounces). And the best part of the birthday was when we sang Yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me to Parker instead of Happy Birthday. Parker and all of the kids loved the song. They were singing, clapping and dancing so much we sang it twice!

I love my little two year old!


After Birthday Shave

I love our neighbors and our street. I love Amy, Aaron, Avery and Harrison...and they love us! Harrison and Avery gave Parker a shaving kit for his birthday and Harrison joined Parker in the bath to show him how to shave. What fun!

Boxed In


Parker loves sitting in boxes. I came into his room this morning and the lad had climbed in one of his toy crates. He was reading busy reading a book when all of a sudden he fell back. He laughed all the way down and then continued reading. Such a happy boy.

Just the two of us...

A night out for a friends BBQ and a picture of just the two of us. Both are a somewhat rare occurrence!



Slumber Party




Parker has the best grandparents and uncle in the WORLD! Last weekend, DiDi and Matt took Parker for a night. They had a slumber party that included swinging under the stars (because Parker did not want to leave the park), having cookies with Elmo while watching Cars, falling asleep on the couch with Matt and sleeping with DiDi. Wow, what a lucky kid! And what lucky parents. Nothing makes me happier than watching Parker climb into DiDi's car to head off for an adventure.

Breakfast with Papa

We installed a new water heater, furnace, and air conditioner this month. Because of the dusty mess, Parker and I spent a week at my parents house. Parker enjoyed the change of scenery and having breakfast with Papa every morning. He is so lucky (and so are we)!
