The many faces of Parker...

 

We considered Charlie Brown as a potential Halloween costume because of his giant head.  Parker's head circumference is in the 90th percentile.  Doesn't sound that crazy except that his weight is close to the 30th percentile.   Only v-necks for this kid.

He also has some crazy hair days.  We couldn't get a good shot of the back, but trust of us... it's full Nick Nolte.  

 

OK, now for the cute pictures....

Just a day in the life of Parker...


Please excuse the clutter, the music, and our annoying voices... but this what our evenings usually look like.

The past few weeks have been crazy! So much has happened:

Parker got his first tooth!
We celebrated my birthday.
We celebrated Parker turning 9 months old.
Parker went on his first airplane ride to San Diego.
I vowed to never fly alone with a baby ever again.
Parker started to get his second tooth while in San Diego.

Parker can crawl and pull himself up on anything. He'll walk along the couch and can even stand on his own for a few seconds. He also has a "push-cart" toy that he can use to walk with and he'll push it all over the house. I think he'll be walking soon! We go to his 9 month appointment next week (he'll be 9.5 months) and we'll find out how big he is.

For my birthday we went to Carmel

Parker loves the sand and doesn't try to eat it... but he did try to eat a piece of bark.

He bangs on the table demanding more Cheerios!

Loves snacking on Cheerios all day.
