We are back...

It has been a long time but we are back in business. Parker is officially a year old and toddling around everywhere!! He is a busy little bee and keeps us all on our toes. He talks to us all day long, just can't make out all his words. His favorite words are "Dada" (of course), "Buba and dog-dog). When I try to get him to say Mama, he says Dada...hopefully "Mama" will become a favorite soon!!
Other Sealy news...We have sold our house and live with Lucas' parents. I was an emotional wreck packing and moving our first home. Now that we are totally out, I think I am recovering. We will close on our new home on May 18th and then plan to put in new floors and paint before we move in. So the plan is to be ready to move in right when I get out of school. Our new home is in a neighborhood right in front of Lucas' office. So it will be nice to have him close to home. Here are the latest pics from Parker's year old pictures.

Long Time No Post...

Well, I don't have an excuse as to why I have not made it on here!! :0)

But I wanted to update you on what has been going on and of course post some pics of our busy little man. I can't believe we are almost 1 month away from a 1st birthday!! He is so funny to watch...he is trying SO hard to stand up on his own without holding on to anything. He will get up onto one knee and act as if he is going to push himself up but can't quite make it. I think it is hard for him to lift up 25 pounds!! His words are Dadda and Bubba (for Sambo), no Mama to be heard. Even though that is the one we practice the most!! He loves to sing and it is so funny to watch him dance along to the music...he bounces!! Hopefully he has better rhythm than his Mommy!!

We are in the process of selling our house, we are in need of more space. Moving is a huge chore...especially with a baby!! We are still looking for the right house and have not actually sold ours yet, although we have had lots of interest. Hopefully, the right person will come along and love our house just as much as I do and we will find that perfect house!!

Until next time...Enjoy Parker!!

Time Flies!!

I can't believe it is almost the middle of Nov. and I have not had a chance to update.
We had a great Halloween!! Our little lion roared through his trick-or-treating and won a medal at his first costume party!! He was so excited he didn't take a nap all day so by the time it was time to go he was ready for bed!!
Last week, Parker had to have surgery on his "man parts." One of his testicles never dropped so they went in and pulled it down and repaired a small hernia. He did so good!! I was more worked up than he was. The hardest part was watching him come out of the anesthesia, he was very disoriented and just cried. It broke my heart. But he was back to himself within the day.
We also took family pictures. I will post a few of my favorites but you can go to http://www.frostfotos.com/ and click on "clients" and the password is SEALY. They turned out great!! Our little man is growing up so fast!!

ROAR!!

Coming out of surgery

Feeling a little better!!

Hello!!

Our Little Pumpkin

Parker had his first experience at the pumpkin patch. I had full intentions to dress him up in his costume but it was 90 degrees here and that was not pumpkin patch weather. So, we took a few and might go back when we have some "fall" weather. We had so much fun dressing Parker up and taking pictures of him (I should probably say "I" had fun dressing him up). He actually didn't mind all the action!!

Chillin' at the pumpkin patch

Yummy pumpkin!!

This is SO funny!!

He fits!!

Dinner time!!

So serious...I think he had enough!!

ROAR!!!

Hopefully it is cool for Halloween so we can wear the entire costume!!

6 months

Parker went for his 6 month check up and our little man is growing quickly!! He weighs 21 pounds and is 27 1/2 inches long. He rolls around like he is on a mission to find something to get into. It is so funny to watch him go. The last couple of weeks, he has gone from sleeping through the night to waking up either wide awake or hungry!! After much trial and error to try and fix this situation, we found 2 little teeth poking through his gums. His sleeping is back to normal which is a great thing for Mommy and Daddy. We ordered his "big boy" car seat and got it in the other day. Even though we only have 1 pound until we out grow his infant car seat, I am just not ready to make the switch. We ended up ordering a car seat called Maxi-Cosi. It seems to have all the features we were looking for and good reviews. Check out our growing boy...

TEETH!!

Parker's Special Day

Parker Ryan was baptised on September 6th. What an amazing feeling to witness your child being baptised!! We are so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends to support us on this special day. Parker also met his great grandparents for the first time!! Our little boy is forever growing and changing!! What a joy it is to experience each moment with him!!

Parker's best friend

Parker has really grown to love his doggy!! Sambo is so good with him. As you can see, Sambo lets Parker tug and pull on him. They are so cute together!!
