Army Crawl

So Parker is a crawler now! it's crazy! Its mostly an army crawl but he can get on his hands and knees.

7 months

baby boy is 7 months! I don't know how that is possible!! We happened to go to the doctor the week he turned 7 months and he weighs 19 pounds 13 ounces, so he gained a pound this last month. Parker is very mobile now! He is starting to crawl, mostly army crawl but he can get up on his hands and knees. He's trying to push himself up into a seated position and will probably have that down before crawling on his hands and knees. He's just such a happy little guy!



He's been upgraded to sitting in a shopping cart! He loved it!

End of November

I'm starting to slack again!! One day I'll be a good blogger.
Like I said a couple posts ago, we went to my sisters wedding in Nashville. They had this really cool photo booth. Here are some pictures of me and my lil sis paige. Note how that fake nose could totally pass as my own!




We left after the reception and made the 3.5 hour drive back to Louisville. Can I just say Parker was perfect the whole day! Didn't cry or fuss. He even took a nap on the husband of my mom's friend! he was great!!

The next week was thanksgiving and we headed down to my parents house the Tuesday night before. My brother and his family came in for the wedding from Ohio and were luckily enough to be able to stay for thanksgiving! again, someone had pictures of thanksgiving, but I don't. At one point over break, not sure when my mind is mush, we went bowling. I did horrible, but thats nothing new. It's so weird out here that places aren't smoke free. No one was at the bowling alley but us and the guy working. I'm pretty sure he smoked the entire time- INSIDE!!! yeah, gross!

This is what happens when Parker is at grandmas. hahah! I think this picture is too funny. He just gets so exhausted!


It was a great holiday and ended way too soon! But we will be back down there in a week and a half for christmas then off to Arizona!

Black eye update

Here's Parker's eye a couple days after it happened. I only would remember to take a picture after he was asleep. but you couldnt tell as good when he was awake. This is the day after the really good coloring on his eye

Black eyed P

so yesterday Parker got his first injury. ready for this.... he fell off our bed! You have no idea how horrible I feel! He usually takes a nap on our bed cause he likes me to lay down with him as he falls asleep. He took his nap like normal. I was in our bathroom and heard his stirring but thought hed be okay for a minute while I finished up, less than two seconds later...THUD! followed by crying of course. (washed my hands) then went to check on him and he was flat on his back, which didnt make sense to me how he could of fallen and landed that way because of how he was facing. So of course I picked him up and held him and he cried for a few minutes. Then he was great! I called my brother (ER doc) to see what signs I should watch for the something was wrong. He told me he should be okay but to watch for stuff out of the norm. Well as the night progressed, we figured out what part hit the ground first. He had a red spot on his forehead and around his left eye was starting to swell. He has a little bit of bruising but is completely okay. I'll post more pictures if it gets worse.

Shai's wedding

This last weekend we headed down to Nashville for my older sister, Shai's wedding. We went down on Friday and stayed in a hotel in Franklin. That night, the girls went out to eat and saw breaking dawn in honor of Shai. The next day was the BIG day! We went to the Nashville temple in the morning, checked out of the hotel, then drove an hour to Clarksville for the reception. We had a family luncheon and decorated the reception hall. It was a super creative wedding! We had a lot of fun with lots of yummy food!

Music Sunday

Sunday morning Drew pulled out the guitar for fun. Parker was sooo entertained by it that drew let him try it out. You probably cant tell but he was smiling real big when he got to play it. He loved that sound came from touching the strings. Oh and don't worry, the head phones weren't hooked up to anything, we just wanted to see how he'd like them.
