Happy Birthday Parker!!!

Parker is three! Parker is three! I can't believe it! Parker, you are so full of energy and so funny all the time!  You say things like "Mommy, can I go outside?  Mommy, you say 'yes or no'?"  You want a straightforward answer for sure!  When you say cheese you smile so big your eyes are almost closed:)  You LOVE Toy Story and animals and dinosaurs!  You have been in your big boy bed for a month now, and you have never even once gotten out when you weren't supposed to!  You come out of your room in the mornings dragging your new Sheriff Woody behind you, and once you start talking, you don't stop until you go to bed at night!  Sometimes you skip your nap if we have a busy day, but most of the time you are sacked out for almost 2 hours!

Birthday Breakfast!



Hey everybody, I'm 3 now!!!

You absolutely love the little zoo at the local park, so what better place for your party!  If I would take you every single day, I don't think you would ever get bored!  Here are the owl themed goody bags...

and the cupcakes...!

It's Party Time!


Ready for the zoo tour!

Listen carefully!

 He said his favorite thing was holding the "zoo teacher's hand!"

Opa and Papa goofing off!

Love this, Oma and the Birthday Boy, so sweet!

Baby Colt came along for the adventure!

Blowing out the candles!

More zoo animals...a snake...

The Birthday Crew!

"Are these presents all for me???"  You must have asked that a thousand times!  Love it!

Christmas Eve Part 2

In the afternoon on Christmas Eve we celebrated with Jamie's mom and his brother's family at our house.

Parker loves puzzles!

Caleb got a Dinosaur Leapster game!

Hmmm, do you think Emily was a little excited about this horse shirt from Aunt Ally and Uncle "Monkey"?

New art tray that says "P-A-R-K-E-R"!!!

Em and Grandmama got a surprise--a 2 hour trail ride at a local horse ranch!

Love me some Baby Colt!  Merry First Christmas!

Parker didn't waste time getting comfortable in his new chair!

Mmm Mmm, Key Lime Pie!
