Hi!

We have been working with Parker for the last week or so on 'waving hi.'   I was lucky enough to have my cell phone handy to tape is first time actually doing it.  I am not sure who was more excited, me or Parker ;-)




St. Patrick's Day Parade
This past weekend we took Parker to his first St. Patrick's Day parade.  He seemed to really enjoy it, despite it being so windy.  He got to see the Londonderry marching band, clowns, horses and of course the bag-pipers and drummers.  I didn't take one picture (I guess I was just having too much fun!), but thankfully Auntie Katie got an adorable shot of Parker all dressed up for the occasion.

Pictures!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!



Checking out the guitar




 We had some pics taken this week, poor quality as I took digital pictures
 of the print outs - but still cute enough to share :-)

Happy Birthday to Daddy!

We celebreated Marc and Todd's Birthday's this past weekend. 
Happy Birthday boys!



A little bit of jumping fun:

Parker's FAVORITE thing to do these days is to hang out in his jumper!

8 Months



And just like that... our baby is 8 Months! 



Age: 8 Months.
Size and Shape: I'm sure, any day now, he'll be out of the 6-9 month clothes (he's been wearing them since 6 months).  Still size 3 diapers.
Sleep: Parker is sleeping through the night! Down at 8pm and up around 6am, you won't find any complaints here (thank you Dr. Ferber and all of our friends/family that supported us while he was crying it out).  He has figured out how to put his pacifier back in his mouth and turn on his fish tank, both helpful in keeping him happy in the crib. He takes 2-3 naps during the day, they range from a half hour to almost 2 hours.
Eat: I'm kind of muddling through this eating thing. He enjoys, Puffs, peas, carrots, pears, oatmeal and has had a few 'bites' of pizza crust (yum!).   Drinking 4-5, 6-8oz bottles daily.
Getting Around: He is not getting too far without the help of mommy and daddy.  He is starting to figure out the crawling position, that little but in the air is CUTE!
Best moment this month:We are treasuring all the moments these days!  I especially love when he is tired and puts his little body against mine and his head on my shoulder, usually makes me stop dead in my tracks. 
Milestones: Two teeth and lots more babbling! And he totally gets the hang of his jumper now.
Check out those choppers!
