Busy Boy!

Oh, Parker! These days you are such a busy boy! Don't get me wrong, you are so much fun right now & I'm loving your personality! But I feel like if I turn my back for a second, chaos will most likely insue. Like the other day I left you in the kitchen, fully clothed, happily having a snack. I return 5-7 minutes later to a pantless wonder, eating crumbs out of the toaster, on the kitchen counter!!

We've been blessed with beautiful weather lately and have spent lots of time outdoors. You love the park! You even asked to go there at 4:45 this morning ;) You're newest "hobby" is using your dump truck and gardening tools in the mulch at the park.

Although you're just as happy running around....

And climbing the rock wall to go down the big slide, over & over & over again!

You are so into accessories right now! Sunglasses, vests, hats, shoes....You are always stylin'!

We've also been spending lots of time in the backyard. You love playing soccer! (Still not too interested in baseball....) When you score goals, you throw your arms in the air & cheer. I love your enthusiasm & can't wait till you get to play on a real team!

I'm itching to plant some new herbs, veggies & flowers! I think you'll be the best helper. You love your new gardening tools & you're quite into digging, watering....

& mowing! Let's hope you haven't inherited your parents "black thumbs."You have become such a motormouth!! The things you say crack me up! Like this morning (at 4:45 am) when you told me "I happy you're in my family, Mommy" or "I missed you!!" when I was only gone for two minutes. Or when you told someone "My Daddy drives a brown (UPS) truck!" (Sorry to disappoint you kid-he's an attorney.) I think I need to start writing all this stuff down. I'd hate to someday forget all the cute things you say.

Yes, Parker, you are definetly a busy boy. But you're also sweet, funny, crazy and kind & I wouldn't change a thing! (Except for maybe the 5 am wake-up calls....)
