That is my boy!

Parker discovers how AWESOME ketchup is : ) Yeah I was so proud I took pictures! 

Day at the Park

Parker loves going to the little park by the water plant. He can do almost everything there by himself. We stop after work some days with Seamus and Abby. This weekend we took Daddy and met "Ging Ging" there. Next weekend is Great Wolf Lodge for his birthday! 

Daycare Party

Seamus, Mia and Parker celebrating their birthdays at daycare. Parker was so happy with all of his toys. The whole way he kept asking "Parker take cars his house?!?" He was shocked he was getting to take toys home with him from Nana's house. He is such a lucky little guy! 

MY Boy!

I love when Parker comes to my races! Parker was waiting on the course for me and at the finish line. I always think about him as I am finishing. As much as I run for my own health and sanity I also run for Parker. I run to set a good example of making goals, living healthy, finishing what you start and being determined about something in life. Anytime Parker is at a race to support me I tear up as I come towards the finish and see him. My fastest two 5Ks have been races that Parker has been at. I love hearing "Go Mommy"and "Mommy running". He has started to run like Mommy and it melts my heart! I look forward to the day that I am on the sidelines cheering him on in whatever sport/activity/club HE chooses to join. 

Pickles, Brownie Batter and Meltdowns

Parker loves saying "pickle"! It is the cutest thing ever when he says it. He always asks for a pickle when Scott and I eat them and we eat them with almost every meal. So after many times of trying them Parker has decided he likes to eat pickles too : ) 

Parker enjoys brownie batter like his Mommy : ) I made brownies just so I could eat the batter. I left the actual brownies for my house sitter! 

Even cute when he is melting down. Eye teeth are cutting in with a vengeance and Parker has been getting cranky late afternoon. This meltdown was over "more go-go". For the most part meltdowns are short and sweet but Parker is starting to have more of an opinion! I will still miss him next week when it is back to work every day : ( 

Bye-Bye Pool

Parker will be so sad to not go to the pool anymore! We have gone quite a bit this summer. He loves his "babby" pool! We are hoping for a few more days before it is closed for the summer. Good thing Mommy, Daddy, Grammie and Grampy are taking him to Great Wolfe Lodge for his birthday!
