We happened to be driving through Seattle on Father’s Day so we decided to stop at the Seattle Center. We had never been to the Experience Music Project and Daddy really wanted to go so we figured what better day than Father’s Day to pay the museum a visit? Daddy loved EMP and in addition to that they had a Jim Henson Experience exhibit and a science fiction exhibit. We couldn’t take any pictures inside the museum but here are a few from the Seattle Center!
Parker and Maya hanging out together…in a laundry basket. Keeping them both contained. Now that’s what I call parenting!
Parker loves to help Daddy fold laundry. For Parker help means pulling all the clothes out of the basket and playing with them. Even if they have already been folded! Here he is in action!
Okay, so these are out of chronological order. I thought that I posted these awhile ago but realized I hadn’t. These pics were taken in March when Grandma and Grandpa Paskas came to visit. Parker loves his Grandma Sherry and Grandpa Joe!
When Grandma Sherry is in town she likes to feed Parker!
MMMMM…rice cereal.
Grandpa Joe, Grandma Sherry and Parker.
Parker isn’t much for being held for too long.
Ha Ha, my mom will kill me but this is too funny! Parker and Grandma Sherry taking a nap!
Grandpa Joe holding Baby P!
Grandpa Joe says take the darn picture already! You know I don’t like having my picture taken!
Mike, Cassie and Kylie were staying the weekend at a condo in Birch Bay so we went to visit them, eat dinner together and swim in the pool. Unfortunately, Mommy didn’t think to charge the camera battery so I didn’t get to take any pics of them in the pool. They did have a lot of fun though. Here are the few pics I did manage to take before my battery went dead…
Parker and Kylie sitting so well together.
Look at how big I am. I can sit up by myself!

Of course Parker has to scoot under the coffee table!

Parker says it’s so easy. Just watch me!
Parker got to go visit Great Grandpa and Great Grandma Hale in May. He had a lot of fun at the farm. We got to spend a lot of time with Great Grandpa and Great Grandma, see Uncle Bob, Uncle Doug, Uncle Rick and Todd. Uncle Rick had a baby thoroughbred horse that we got to see. We thought Parker would be scared of the horses but he wasn’t scared at all. He even stuck his hand out to touch one of the horses. Such a brave big boy!
Anytime we go to the farm we always go to USA Subs (can’t ever miss that place!). On this visit Parker got to sit in a high chair at a restaurant for the first time. It took him a bit to get the hang of it because there isn’t as much support as our high chair at home. He bent forward and hit his head on the end of the table and got a nice red mark! Didn’t phase him though. That’s our Parker, knocks his head and keeps on going!
Uncle Bob took Justin on a ride in his Porsche. Of course Justin loved it. I told him someday he can have a Porsche, just not that day!
We also went out to dinner with Great Grandpa and Great Grandpa Hale, and Uncle Bob. Another first for Parker…his first time being fussy in a restaurant. We brought his high chair along so he could sit in it but he did not want to sit in it! So Justin and I passed him back and forth so we could eat, then Uncle Bob offered to take him so we could finish our meals. Parker had fun with Uncle Bob looking at the gas pumps that decorate the restaurant as well as talking to the waitresses! My boy is a flirt already!
Here are the pics from our fun week at the farm! We can’t wait until October for Erica’s wedding so we can visit again!
Such a pretty baby horse!
And fast too! Uncle Rick is taking this one to the Kentucky Derby!
Look at how long the legs are!
So pretty!
Parker looking at the horses in the stall.
Parker checking out a horse up close.
Not scared at all…
OOOH, I see a camera, I’d better look at it!
Told you I wasn’t scared, I want to touch the horse!
Big boy growing up so fast!
Such a nice horsey!
Going to touch the camera!
If I am going to be in any of the pictures I have to take one of myself. So here I am.
Parker gets a bath in Great Grandma Hale’s utility sink!
He doesn’t care where the bath is at. He loves his baths!
Giving Great Grandma Hale loves!
Smiling for the camera.
Parkers first time in a restaurant high chair. Such a big boy!
I am so happy to be in the high chair!
Right before he knocks his head on the end of the table.
And right after knocking his head. Notice the nice red mark! Quick give him the pacifier so he doesn’t scream!
Mommy, thanks for the pacifier but I am a big boy, I wasn’t going to scream!
MMMMMM….USA Subs. The french fries were as good as they look.
Parker and Daddy during his first trip to USA Subs!
This is where he always scooted to the whole time we were there!
Blanket play time before I take a nap.
Sometimes Daddy’s need naps too!

Thanks Uncle Bob for taking Parker, now I can finish my dinner!
