Parker’s 3rd Birthday

Parker is 3!! We celebrated his 3rd birthday a couple of weeks ago and he had a great time! He has really been into Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles the past couple of months and so we decided to do his party with it.  He had a few friends over and family of course.  We had pizza and let the kids run around and play ninja turtles and just let them run free! Parker got a little overwhelmed with it all, but after everyone left her played with all his toys and had so much fun with all of them.  He is such a sweet little boy and has turned out  to be a great little kid! Since we started him on allergy medicine and last year he has been like a new kid and just happy so much.  He is so tough too. His body is just constantly bothering him, but he finds a way to not let it bother him.  He is such a little entertainer too and I love watching him. He is constantly jumping off of something or finding a new way to play with stuff.  He loves being with people and making them laugh. He loves his momma! There is not a day that goes by that he doesn’t find time to snuggle with me and I can’t count how many times a day he will just yell through the house, “Love you Mom!” He is just the sweetest kid! People at church just love this little guy and every week someone comments to me or David how much they love Parker and how entertaining he is to watch.  It is so fun! He gave us quite the ride for the first 2 years, but has definitely made up for it this past year and it is so hard to believe that he had such a rough start to life. WE love our Parker Scott and are so lucky to have his energetic self in our family!!

 

P.S. The only reason I have found time to blog this month is because of my amazing friend, Alice-Anne. She invited all my kids to come play at her house today and I have enjoyed every second of this oh so quiet house!! Thanks Alice-Anne!! You are amazing and a life saver!!

Lizzy and Lincoln’s Party

Elizabeth and her cousin Lincoln’s birthdays are just a few days apart from each other, so we decided to have a joint party together for them! Giselle, Kevin and Lincoln were staying at our place for a little while and so we thought it would be perfect to do a combined party. It was so nice and fun to plan this party with Giselle. We just kept coming up with more and more fun things to do for it and had to put a stop to it at a point.  It was a colorful candy land theme.  So we made some little lollipops and other fun little things and then just put color everywhere.  The two little babies had a good time. Lincoln was a little sick, but during the party he seemed to have a good time. We had cake, yummy foods and present time. The guests were just family, which makes it a big party!   It is so crazy that these 2 babies are so close together and it has been fun seeing them grow up together this past year.  Cousins are the best!
