Sweet Parker,
Mommy and daddy cannot believe you are already two years old! One week before your second birthday, you looked at me and said "mama" for the very first time! We were in Sam's doing some shopping and I think I melted right there in the aisle! :) Now you say it all the time and it's music to my ears. I love that you can be in another room and you call for me, love it!!
You are so very independent and your vocabulary is all of the sudden taking off! We can understand your words a little better, it's not a foreign language for the most part.
Some of your words are:
Dada, Mama, eesie (Neesie), gdad (grandad), Nana, cheese, chin (chicken), gaga (pasta), ball, Geeus (Jesus), wa (water), tick (stick).
You have a passion for playing ball...basketball, t-ball and golf. It is so much fun to watch you develop these skills more and more. You still just lay down in bed and go to sleep at night, you still take a 21/2 hour nap in the afternoon and you are a good eater. Your favorite foods are: chicken nuggets, pasta, grapes, turkey and cheese sandwiches, edamame and broccoli. You adore being outside at all times...just like your mommy! We love you so much and look forward to seeing what God has in store for you as you keep growing up!
Now for some pics from the weekend...
Our big two year old!
"Driving" mommy in the mule.
We started the day off with a big birthday breakfast!
Uncle Luke and a tired birthday boy. He took a 21/2 hour nap starting at 10:30 that morning. He had so much fun the night before with everyone!
Open wide!! He escaped the kiddie table to let Nana feed him!
Back to the kiddie table.
Parker loves the driver's seat!
James grilling the chicken we were having for lunch.
Katherine and Adelynn hitching a ride with Geefather!
Blake became quite the tractor driver! (so did Meredith!)
It was so HOT on Sunday afternoon...the girls found the shade and just relaxed!
We did hit the pool quite a bit but I don't have any pics from that, so sad!
Katherine just loves Waco.
I talked Blake into smiling for the camera!
Parker enjoyed watching me assemble his dump truck cake.
Handsome little boys just dying to get their hands in that cake!
A mouth full of lunch! :)
Singing and blowing out the candle!
Cake time!
Parker loved his Lego set Aunt Sissy sent him!
My grandad (Dede) got Parker his very first glove, Ruben showed Parker how to put it on.
And here Ruben is mowing on Monday morning. Goggles, check. Pink shorts, check. Rubber boots, check. Lobster shirt, check. This is one serious mower! ;) We love Ruben!!
And since all the guys were mowing, Parker busted out his new mower from Mema and Papa and helped out!
Riding with Geefather on the BIG mower. (this is how most mowers dress by the way...work shirt, khaki work pants and a hat)! :)
Saying bye to Neesie.
One last picture before they drove off. Thanks for driving up mom and dad, we had so much fun!!!
Looks like we had similar Memorial Day weekends riding on tractors and mules the entire time! That's one cute and very happy birthday boy surrounded by such a fun and loving family. Glad you guys had such a good time - can't wait to have some time with you next month...praying that our weekend together goes by slowly!
