The Park

We went to the park this afternoon with Grandma Lees, Aunt Danielle, and Ellie. It was warm today and I thought it was going to be chilly. I think I got sun burnt. I did not prepare for good weather. I should have brought sun hats and sunscreen. Anyways, Grandma brought a ball, bubbles, and sidewalk chalk. The kids had fun. Parker thought the bubbles were hilarious and couldn't stop laughing. Ellie and Staucie went down the slides and went on the swings.


If you look closely you can see the big bubble that Staucie is chasing.
The girls loved watching Danielle feed the ducks.

Happy Parker.
We should have brought 2 balls... We had 2 two-year-olds. What were we thinking, ha ha!

Thanks Grandma Lees and Danielle and Ellie for inviting us to the park. Maybe Staucie will be less shy the next time we hang out. She was a WILD child tonight! Ellie, we hope your head doesn't hurt from your trip over the water fountain wall.

A Tuesday Night

After dinner tonight Staucie threw all the pillows from the couches on the floor like she does every day and night. She likes to jump on them, sit on them, and crawl under them. She makes Daniel hide under them, but then he doesn't come out... I think he sleeps. Parker likes to climb up the pillows too. Tonight he climbed in to find Daddy. He giggled the whole time. It was cery cute. He loves to climb over things and crawl under things.

He found Daddy!
Staucie did too!
Then when they were getting ready for bed, they climbed all over me.

We hope you had a happy birthday yesterday. We can't believe you are already TWO. Staucie hopes to play with you soon. We love you!

Nine Months!

He is already nine months old. I took him to his doctor appointment yesterday and he weighed 18 pounds. I new he was getting heavier! The doctor said he was only in the 25% and I thought he would be higher up the scale, but I am comparing him to Staucie who was skinny. Anyways, I still think he is little. He is my little baby and I am sad to see him grow so fast. He is still army crawling everywhere in the house. He likes to crawl over and under anything he can. He likes to laugh and yell a lot. He likes it when we yell with him, he thinks it is pretty funny and mimicks the same sounds we do. He is eating everything I feed him now and sometimes seems to never stop! He loves his big sister and is already getting into anything he can reach. We love our little Parker!

Family Fort Night

For Family Night last week we made a fort. Tyne and my mom were over that night and it was Tyne's idea. Staucie and Parker enjoyed playing in the fort. Parker likes to crawl under things so he stayed inside for awhile.

My mom's feet are sticking out in this picture, don't worry Grandma got in too!

Random Pictures

This is Staucie eating off Parker's tray. They like to eat Cherrios together.
Staucie likes to sit in the high chair in the pantry so she can eat the food. She found some Doritos early one morning. Mmmm...
Two babes in a box of balls. Parker is getting BIG!
This is random, but I made Daniel stuffed bell peppers twice now. (They are raw in this picture.) He was a afraid to eat them, but I think they are so good. I am getting Daniel to try new things once in awhile. I think he likes them, they are made with beef so they aren't THAT scary :)

Baby's Turn

Most of the time when I am feeding Parker in his high chair Staucie always wants to join in or have her baby eat. She usually eats off of Parker's tray and eats his food. Whenever he is done, she always says, "Staucie's turn" or "Baby's turn." Anyway, the other day she went and got her baby's high chair and all the baby stuff and fed Baby. She does it a lot, but it was cute because I was feeding Parker at the same time.

This is her stirring the pretend food in the bowl.
Giving Baby a bite.
Taking a bite for herself...
And then Baby needed a bottle.
She is a cute mommy!
