Opening his presents.

Sara and Kayleigh got the camera I see! Bella loving her presents also. And daddy and Kevin helping Parker play baseball.

Parker playing baseball and Bella was playing with her new chalk set. Thanks guys!

I can't believe he's 2 already. The time sure flies by. Parker had a great birthday yesterday and it was so fun to watch him play and get so excited over things. He is so animated and really got into the gift opening. Every tissue paper, every bag, every wrapping paper etc. He dug until he got it all. Then he would line it all up and go get the next one. It was so sweet. When we lit the candles he just sat there and stared. He was mesmerized and would make funny faces and then pretend he didn't hear us. Then when he felt like blowing he would get the smallest amount of air out and then just stare at the candles. We all got a good laugh out of him.

Things you may not know about him:

He loves ANIMAlS,

Loves to sing and talk,

Loves his daddy, it's the first thing he wants every morning, afternoon and night

he is such a joy in all of our lives and makes us laugh a ton,

Happy birthday buddy, love you.

A great Sunday Picture

Last Sunday Parker had on his cute suit he got from my mom. It was a little chilly out so it was a perfect day for it. Well we thought he looked so cute that we needed to snap a few pics. I was so happy we got a few cute ones! They even matched even, Bella picked her own outfit out that day so it was great! They are getting so big so fast. And we are enjoying every minute of it!

He's not even 2 yet!!

So Bella and Parker were in the bath tonight and Bella of course has to get out at some point to go to the bathroom...(better she gets out than stays in right) but Parker sees this all the time and I guess has caught on!! He was yelling, "I gotta go poop, I gotta go poop." So of course I was like lets get out quick and was thinking we had to put a diaper on him. But he went right over to the toilet seat lifted it up and waited for me to put him on. And much to our surprise he WENT!!! That's right he went on the potty!! He was so excited and were we!! We are hoping this is a new thing and that he will continue on!!

Baseball Season is here

$1.00 Dome Dog night!!

Silly kids

Playing out side, eating some ice cream and making funny faces!

Bella was thrilled to be outside dancing to the drummers. She even got to try it out a few times!

We are so excited that the baseball season is here! We love watching the games at home and at the Dome! We are so lucky to be able to go as much as we do and we all have a great time! This was Parker's first time that he can remember and he was amazed. For the first few innings he sat so quietly and just didn't even know where to begin looking. The lights, baseballs, people everywhere, the music, food and so much more. Everytime the twins bear would come out and then leave he would put his hands up and say, " where did he go." It was so fun to watch his eyes light up and to see how happy they both were. We only made it to the 5th inning and decided to head up and get some ice cream and walk around. John stayed down with some friends and we eventually picked him up around the 7th inning. Thank goodness the game went into extra innings and didn't finish until after 11:00pm. We can't wait for the next one.

Look Way Down on the page..there is like 5 new posts!!

I know, I know...

Bella scored a ton of new dress up clothes and accessories from Grandma!! She's spoiled as always. So I had to organize and re-organize it all so that it looks presentable. She can't wait to have her friends over. Parker has to do for now!!

it has taken me forever to post any pictures or updates. Sorry, I have gone into nesting mode and have stopped working on the house or trying to keep up some sort of routine for the kids etc. It's been crazy to say the least, but we are home!! I can finally say that. John took a day off today and my mom took this kiddos and we finished the basement and it's great. We can walk around and not bum into anything. It's clean and the kids love riding their bikes down here. I'll post more pics later I just have a few little decorations to put up and then I will post a ton!

What is....

Funnier....??

Vacuuming your concrete or hanging pictures on your un-finished walls?? You tell us!

As John and I were cleaning today we had to laugh as he was vacuuming our concrete floors and he said.."um, aren't I supposed to be washing these or something other than vacuuming them?" Then I thought the same thing as we were hanging pictures on the 2x4's?? We got a good laugh and continued on.
