I'm a little behind :)

Well as usual I'm a little behind with my posting.  Parker has tried her first Oreo (and loved it) we celebrated Thanksgiving but I only took like 2 pictures:( There were a lot of people over for Thanksgiving and on top of Parker taking a late nap she was a little fussy during lunch. Today we took Parker to the Christmas festival here and Natchitoches.  We found a place that had live bunnies and she LOVED that!! She is not found of loud noises.  The parade bothered her a little bit with all the drums for the marching bands and the sirens from the fire truck and police cars, so needless to say we are going to bypass the fireworks this year. 

Parker also turned 15 months on November 28th. She is still talking non-stop and learning new words all the time.

Now she can say hi, sissy, thank you, she says b for bear, uh oh (which is so cute when she says this)
We are also just giving her paci to her at nap time, bedtime, and when she is in the car depending if she is getting tired.
She loves getting up and down off the couch- she acts like its a game and she thinks its hilarious!
She now has 7 1/2 teeth.  All her gums are pretty swollen so I'm thinking that we will be seeing more teeth pretty soon.

she loves to "help" clean

Big Weekend

This past weekend Parker and I had a BIG weekend.  We left for Hot Springs last Thursday to visit my parents and my sister and nephew were flying in as well so we were really excited to get Parker and Barnes together again.  Parker also turned 14 months on the 28th. 

Parker is just talking more and more each day and all I can do is just stare at her at her and smile, it amazes me how much she is learning and discovering.  I am so thankful that God chose me to be her mother of such an amazing little girl.  We also celebrated Halloween when we got back and I have to say I have never seen a cuter little ladybug!! Here are some pictures that I took over the weekend.

this is probably one of the better pics I got of them, its impossible for these 2 to keep still!

I wonder what's in here??

Well this past weekend Justin, Parker and I went over to the Hawkins house to watch the LSU game and we also ended up picking pecans.  Parker had a great time and I was able to take a lot of great pictures!!

I just love this picture!!!

Happy 13 Months

Okay, I know I'm a little late posting this and I could make up a ton of excuses but I was just being lazy.  Anyways, Parker Ann turned 13 months on September 28th.  I thought that after she turned 1 things would seem to slow down a little but its still going just as fast as it ever was. 

Parker is eating and trying new things daily, and let me just say that she has quite the strong personality.  She will let you know what she want and what she doesn't want. She now has a total of 5 teeth, she got her top 2 within the last 2 weeks. We also celebrated Justin's 28th birthday. 

look at all the hair
