Brush, Brush, Brush!

Anyone who knows Parker knows how he loves to share the kisses.  He practices good oral hygiene to ensure that his breath is continuously fresh for those moments when kisses are due!

Lost Rawhide...


Hello?  Hello?  Anyone?

Your BIG BOY took my rawhide chew and tossed it on the other side of the gate.  I need it...Would you please get it for me?  Please?

Sunny Sunday Evening...



Sometimes I just don't know how he does it all!  While I am at work "bringing home the prosciutto" my wonderful husband gets the exhausting task of "rearing our child" as well as cooking/cleaning/running all household errands, etc.  Today was no exception either.  Mr. Man had dinner ready when I walked in the door from work and as soon as we were done eating he immediately headed outdoors to mow the lawn!

Meanwhile...




Parker is excited to see his Daddy outside and thinks this lawn mowing business is pretty exciting stuff!  Don't worry Parker...Your Daddy can't wait to show you how to mow the lawn, but just remember that your Daddy is meticulous about his lawn care so pay attention to how he wants it done!

...And you Maya...




Is there anything I can do for you?  Anything?  Anything at all?

I Bet You Wish You Had a Birthday Present This Cool...


It's been almost a YEAR since I was given just about the COOLEST birthday present of all time!  Not every one gets a brand spanking NEW niece, but me, I guess I'm just cool like that...if that's what the cool kids say...not too sure because I've never been one though.  A cool kid, that is.  Anyways, getting carried away here...back to the subject on hand:

MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT IS ABOUT TO TURN 1!!!

Which means I'm about to turn quite a bit more than 1...

But we won't worry about that now...

What we will worry about is...what do you get your birthday present when she turns 1?  Or does she get something for you?  I'm not quite sure...is this the gift that keeps on giving?

Hmmm...I'm pretty sure it's my turn though...

So, what to get her?

I might just have to sleep on this one!

Where's Jacob?


I don't know, Mommy, where is he?

Happy Mother's Day, Mommy!


Spring has officially sprung!  I love my Mother's Day present from my BIG BOY!

And He's Off...


"Mommy, I'm bored of looking at tulips.  I'm going to play in the dirt!"

He Doesn't Need a Wagon Anymore...


Mr. Independent doesn't need any assistance from his Radio Flyer.  Once again proving that my baby isn't much of a baby anymore!

The Tulip Festival was a while back too...


Two things Mommy loves:  Parker and Tulips!

Mommy & Parker


 


He is getting TOO big!  What happened to my little baby?  Somehow he has become a big boy...Not sure I can put up with this!

Like Father, Like Son...


I absolutely love these two people!  My baby boy is so much like his Daddy, they even stare at things the same way!  Do you see it?  The same instense gaze?  It's there, I can see it!

Olympics were a long time ago...


The crowd around the torch was MASSIVE and if you wanted to get an unobstructed view you had to stand in line for a few hours...Sorry, Olympic Torch, but you are not a ride at Disneyland, so I will NOT wait in line for the perfect picture!  I wanted a shot which minimized the crowd so I climbed atop a concrete barrier and took my picture!  Voila, problem solved, a pic that is good enough for me and it only took a few seconds of my time...


Parker and His Pacifiers



Before I had Parker I would look at other older babies with pacifiers and think, "Man!  That kid is way too old for that pacifier!"  Well my baby is now almost 20 months old and guess what?  He still loves his pacifiers and I don't see an end to it anytime soon!  Oh, well...they make him happy...and they really aren't hurting anything!  He'll grow tired of them eventually, right?!?

Bad, Bad Blogger!

I've been a very bad blogger!  It's so hard to keep up with this dang thing!  I will work at getting better...please forgive me!

Woodland Park Zoo

We met up with the Erga’s and took the kids to the zoo.  We had a lot of fun although the little ones weren’t too interested in many of the zoo animals.  Oh well…we will try again later when they are older!

Parker’s big boy car seat

Parker was getting too big to carry in his first car seat so it was time to upgrade.  He seems pretty happy with the results!
