Another Snow Day

Have a milk cup and watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Making it snow inside with some Kleenex. It bought us a few moments of entertainment. 

Spaghetti for dinner! However, I do not think any of it made it in his mouth : ) It took about 9 paper towels and the dirt devil to clean up after this meal. And since Scott is still out of town I quickly regretted spaghetti and practicing with the spoon. 

Sugar Cooke cupcake for dessert. I was a little disappointed in this one. I was super excited to try it but it was too dry for me. Parker on the other hand actually liked this one. 

I have enjoyed all the extra time with Parker this winter but NO more Snow Days please. This was number seven. 

Second Haircut

I finally broke down and cut Parker's hair again. I was wanting to let it again a little long again but it was looking pretty rough. He is finally starting to wear 12-18 month clothes. I think he is going to get "big" on me. He is talking up a storm! Repeating lots of stuff and using lots of jibberish that we do not understand. Eating is our biggest battle right now. Basically he lives off of fluids, goldfish, waffles and peanut butter crackers. 

Mommy's Half-Marathon

Playing in the snow at Grammie and Grampy's house. 

Watching Nascar with Oreo and Rascal. 

Due to some CRAZY flight changes Parker picked Mommy up at the airport in Lexington! 

Chilling with Mommy on the couch : ) 

Snow Day

Spending the time with Mommy for TWO Snow Days : ) 

Valentine's Day

Early Valentine's Gift for Parker since Mommy is headed to Myrtle Beach to run. He was watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse so we went ahead and gave him his little Mickey. 

Weekend Adventures

Parker has spending extra time with Grammie and Grampy here lately. I have been making sure I get in all my runs since my race is next weekend! Who knows what Parker was getting into here : ) 

Parker was showing Grammie and Grampy what a big boy he is! We went on a nice little date night while Parker stayed at Grammie and Grampy's Saturday night. Saturday was very busy. Parker went to the skating rink for the first time. He enjoyed letting Stacy carry him for a trip around the rink but he was a little nervous of Mommy's ability to skate! HA! Then we took off for Lexington so Parker could watch the UK game and go to Guadies with Grammie and Grampy. Then Sunday was the Super Bowl! Shew! Busy weekend! 

Looks like Parker is trying to hide in Daddy's work boots. Parker is such a Daddy's boy : ) 

Cupcakes!

Parker was very excited to try out some Twisted Sifter cupcakes. They had their Grand Opening today so we went by to get Mommy some belated birthday cupcakes. Scott had the peach cobbler and Parker and I tried the free vanilla and chocolate they were giving out. I still have a Margarita cupcake and Peanut Butter Banana waiting in the kitchen : ) I tried to teach him how to lick the icing off his fingers but he preferred to wipe it off on his shirt. 

Goldfish Junkie

Parker loves his goldfish. He is always wants "gofish" from the pantry. Tonight he helped himself to the pantry and brought the box in the living room for a end of the night snack. As you can tell he was really full of himself and thought he was big. Wonder if Goldfish would pay for these adorable pictures? 

Many Faces of Parker

Parker likes smiling for the camera! It is hard to get a good picture of him anymore since he wants to be six inches from the camera. Notice the spoon in the picture. That plastic spoon has been one of his favorite toys for about  a week now. His another favorites are books and pots & pans. 

Parker Update

 Parker is having a blast right now! He is talking up a storm and all over the place. We are so lucky he is such a good kid. He plays with his toys by himself most of the time. He tries to get remotes and play in the toilet but for the most part he keeps out of "our stuff". He likes to play with things that are like Mommy and Daddy's. He loves to get into pots and pans and talk on his cell phone. He is quite the climber which we knew was going to happen. So far he climbs all over the couch, on and off all the beds and ALL chairs : ) Luckily he has not even attempted to climb out of the crib YET. We are trying to hold off the toddler bed for as long as possible since Parker does not love taking naps.

Parker is going to one nap a day at the babysitter. He is finally taking it later in the day so he is not cranky at night when I get home with him from work. Night time sleep has been disturbed here lately because Parker has had his fourth ear infection in 2 months. On top of that he has gotten 3 molars in the past few weeks. He got top and bottom on the right side in one day back around Christmas. Last week the bottom on the left poke through a little; still waiting on top left. So that makes 9 teeth! Chomp! Chomp! 4 on top front, bottom 2 and three molars. So lots of re-medicating in the middle of the night and some nights of sleeping in the guest room with Mom or Dad.

Words that Parker says: Daddy, Mama (very rarely : ( ), Nana, Tami, dog, kitty, juice, eat, cheese, truck, ball, dunk, "get" for blanket, Uh-oh, and lots of other jibberish that Mommy understands : )

Right now our only issue is eating. He does not eat ANYTHING : ( His basic diet consists of milk cups, juice/water cups, goldfish, pizza, waffles, bananas, peanut butter crackers, cheese and oatmeal cereal. NO Veggies and NO fruits. We offer him a variety of foods all the time but he will go a meal or two without eating anything at all : ( Any suggestions from any of the veteran parents out there?
