Catching up....(29, 30,31/365) POTW-21 weeks

Parker and I have been sick the past few days so I haven't had the energy to post on the blog, so I'm playing catch up today!


Another week has drawn to close and Parker is another week older. My favorite photo for this week is a picture of my two babies. I love how much my daughter has connected with Parker. Sometimes you never know how another child will respond to a new baby in the household, especially since Vanessa has been the one and only child for almost 11 years. She is wonderful with him and wants to help out a lot. I hope they will continue to be close and cherish each other as much as they do now.

Picture of the week & 30/365




Playing with his Octomonster 31/365

"C" is for Caterpillar (Week 20, 24/365) POTW

Another beautiful day outdoors hanging out with Parker. I will continue to brag about the wonderful weather here because I know in a few months it will be too hot to go outdoors...expect for to swim.

Tomorrow he turns 21 weeks, another day closer to being 5 months old.


I chose this first photo for "picture of the week." I love how he put his hand on mine while I was reading the card to him.

Scavenger Hunt Sunday (week 19, 17/365) POTW

Another week has gone by and on top of that today marks the one year anniversary of me finding out I was pregnant with Parker. What an amazing journey we have been through together this past year.

I was having troubles figuring out pictures for "Scavenger Hunt Sunday" so I'm a little late posting mine.

1. A Different View

I realize this is not the best picture. I only had the time it takes for the stoplight to turn green to capture a good picture...and yes I do have a HUGE crack in my windshield.





2. Looking Up

Parker has already learned to roll from belly to back and is now practicing back to belly. He caught me taking pictures. I also chose this picture for my picture of the week. It's amazing how much he changes in just a week.



3. Abstract

I was stuck on what to use for my abstract photo then tonight I found my cat playing with my sewing pins and it struck me that it would make a interesting photo.



4. Hair

Trying to take my day 17 photo with Parker when he decided to grab my hair.



5. Half

This was another challenge for me. I was trying to find something different then what a lot of other people had already done. I had pretty much given up and started to get Parker ready for a bath when his shirt became stuck on his head, it struck me that this would be perfect.



He was having more fun than me with this....

It's already January, what?!? (week 18, 10/365) POTW

18 weeks have gone by since Parker was born, that just amazes me! I can't believe it's already 2011.

It is so funny how much happier a baby is when you let them be naked. He was being so funny after his shower today and I just had to take this photo. I know Valentines Day is still a month away but, I remembered that Paper Mama was doing a Valentines photo challenge and thought this was the perfect photo to use. I also thought this was the perfect photo for the picture of the week.

I Love Daddy (Week 17) POTW

I love taking pictures of Parker and daddy. My hubby doesn't think he's photogenic but I think he's gorgeous just like our baby boy. This is also when I realized that my camera has to be an essential item in the diaper bag.

My father in law bought a car for my mother in law for Christmas and we had to come to the dealership to drop off their old car which was used as a trade in. So here are the rest of us waiting in a car dealership for all the final touches to the car deal to be finished and Parker is being really cute. I'm just so happy I had my camera. I can just see my hubby looking down at his son with unconditional love in this picture which is why I had to choose this one for the picture of the week.
