The last photo shows Parker taking one step in front of the other while holding onto the couch with one hand. this is the one of 2 times I have seen him do this. he seems to have taken a vacation from practicing walking and clapping this last week. :)

Emma and Parker are becoming fast friends. She loves to make him laugfh and he laughs whenever he sees her! Of course Emma is a bit caught up in the whole this mine, and this that is yours thing, but it actually isn't as bad as I have seen most kids get. She has learned to say "This is mine, but Parker can play with it." or "This is Parker's but I can play with it."

Parker crawling and Emma loving him!

Playing and eating and being darling

These are some pics of parker when he was first playing around. I need to rtake some new ones as these are a little old. He loves to play, and is a great at entertaining himself for short periods.
The other pics are of Parker eating avocado...boy does he love avocado!!!!






Some random pictures of my chunky monkey. It is such a treat to have such a happy little boy!

4th of July

We had so much fun on the fourth of July. We went to our stake dinner and then across the street to watch fireworks from woodbridge lake.
For some reason Emma just loves Jonathon. I think they have eqaul amounts of energy. whenever he is around she has so much fun. Below you see them chasing each other.

Parker and Emma

These are Parkers first real pictures. He has changed so much since then. They are from April. I will add more pics of the kids soon!




These pictures show the many sides of my dear Emma. She is so shy at times and the life of the party at others, She loves to connect with other people and she ADORES her little brother. Emma is the real deal... And I am so proud of her.

fun pictures of us at the park and a few others of parker.

I still can't "see" anyhting in the text box when i upoload pictures other than some funky computer language mumbo jumbo... i was going to erase a few of these...but can't figure out where they begin and end. Sooo if you know how to fix this problem... please let me know.

We went to Irvine Park during memorial day and it was sooo much fun! It was a great family day! Emma enjoyed the horsey rides...although at first she was scared and had to make friends with the pony. After that all was good! There are also some pictures of Parker playing with toys when he started playing with them about a month ago...
