Playing catch up

Picking up where we left off:

Parker is such a silly kid! He is currently obsessed with always holding something. here both hands are full and mouth while in a trance watching yo gabba.

While little man was kind of sick, instead of going to the YMCA and potentially exposing him to others and others to him, we tried the gym at the clubhouse. He did okay for the most part but he just kept wanting me to come in and play with him in the playroom (which has a half wall so you can see them and they can see you)

I decided I was done with being pasty. I needed to get a jump start on my summer tan. The clubhouse offers free tanning. So I decided to go for like 6 minutes. no big. I can handle it. The bed seriously did not even warm up. it was cold to the touch. So I was telling the office girl they might need to get it serviced. She suggested maybe trying it again just to see. Well stupid me, I did. The bed hadnt been used yet for the day so it didnt get super hot. It did heat up the second time and boy was I feeling it later!! my poor face was toasted! well my whole body was! especially my bum! but because they were new bulbs and I'm pretty sure not all of them were new, I got quite the funny burn.

Parker just likes to hang out on the floor in the kitchen. not too sure why

had to hit the tub again

while at my parents for a long weekend I came across the left picture in Shais wedding book from Nov '11. I think that is what prompted me to take my "after" picture. Its crazy how much can change in 15 months. thats atleast a 20 pound difference and multiple inches right there. agian, more on that later.

oh I love this kid. He is starting to like to play dress up. or atleast put on items that he doesnt usually wear. these are sunglasses from his birthday party last year just with the lens popped out. what a little hipster.

while at my parents house my mom got Parker to get a rolled up piece of lunch meat. Previously I had to rip it in to pieces for him, now he wont eat it any other way than in tact. This morning he wanted lunch meat for breakfast. Thats all he wanted too.

we still play in the car from time to time. He now has to have the keys in the ignition and change CDs like 50 times.

One morning was particularly cold outside so I asked Parker if he wanted to wear his mittens, boy was that kid excited to wear these! I guess I was too because before that day he never would let me put them on him and I always felt bad for his freezing fingers.

He was so silly with them on. I dont know if he thought he just couldnt move his fingers or what but he just kept his hands straight while wearing them

Parker has a new found love for Dora the Explorer. Can you tell he's a little excited?

A week ago this last sunday P had a fever and stayed home with daddy who also wasnt feelin so. I think he missed me because he made sure to give me lots of cuddles the rest of the day.

So we think the fever was from "boy issues" so he spent a lot of the next day just airing it out.

Parker and Brobee have recently rekindled their friendship

Even the next day Parker still loved him and gave him lots of hugs.

The weather had been so bi-polar lately. Last week we got snow. We actually got to watch it change from rain to snow! something that I've never really seen before. Drew has never really just sat and watched it snow so he seriously sat like this for almost an hour. (the pic was while the rain was changing to snow)

Parker thinks its pretty cool to wear daddy's stuff and makes sure to tell you that its daddys too.

chillin' out max and relaxin' all cool...while watching dora.

working on his handyman skills

Parker had his first ice cream sandwich the other day. thats one awesome mustache huh!

Sunday we had nice weather again so we took out the bike. Clearly P was cruisin for chicks. sadly there were only boys at the playground.

Once we came in from the park we skyped with drews family. Parker is always such a little performer when we skype with someone. He found his sunglasses and started modeling.

Drew and I love this picture. We think he looks like he should be on the cover for some west coast kids clothing company ad or just out on a skateboard. 

this kid is pretty legit

so as you can see, our lives arent super exciting. but little P man, hes hilarious. I hope youve enjoyed watching his little personality
