Happy Four Months Parker









So I am a day late on posting, but none the less, my baby turned four months old yesterday! I know that doesn't seem like a big deal, but its huge to me. It seems like only yesterday I was huge and waiting for this baby to come, all the while being confined to bed with thoughts racing thru my mind of what would come. I can't believe how easy of a baby he has been and we are so blessed by his mellow personality and sweet smiles. He makes it seem easy to have a baby and a one year old! I will say, it does get challenging at times but mostly its his brother causing the commotion, hehe. Yesterday Parker went for his checkup and shots, and weighed in at 15lbs 3oz and was almost 26 inches long! His length is the same as Paytons at that age, but Payton weighed 17lbs 10oz's!! Big difference in babies! The doc also suggested starting rice cereal if he tolerates it because she thought it might help his reflux. Last night we tried some with him and he LOVED it, no choking, coughing, or gagging. He was smiling and is almost going to laugh. It was sooo cute. Enjoy the before and after pics of the feeding! Then today, welcome spring, we went for our first walk outside in the double stroller! Oh what a lug that is but the boys really enjoyed it! Happy St. Patty's Day (a day early)!

Almost Spring!

Oh can you feel spring coming? We can't wait! Things have been going well since the last post. Parker still has a bit of a cough but both boys are still doing great considering all they have been through! School is getting quite annoying for the fact that these papers really really suck! I am so crazy for going back for my masters with two little ones! Jeremy's been staying pretty busy with his new job as a realtor and still really liking it, so thats great. I am super pumped that in April mom, my sis, and me get to go to Florida for a few days of relaxation and margaritas on the beach...ahh! Hmmm..I better get ready for swimsuit season, seeing as I have been pregnant the last two summers, we got major work to do! Parker is just on the verge of laughing and gets talking so loud its hilarious. He is sooo smiley all the time and just is such a good baby I can't get over it. Payton is getting to smart for his own good....he knows where his snacks are and is banging on the cupboards when he wants something and if its not at that second he begins screaming and stomping his feet!! He isn't even two yet...oh boy...what is to come!? Well, our house will be up for sale by the end of next week and I look forward to building our new house. I think it will have a much better layout for us and it really feels cozy. I can't wait to decorate a new home! Well, I better stop procrastinating and be productive. Next time I will try to post some pics.
