birthday boy on January 1, 2011
I can't believe it! Where did my little peanut go? This year really has flown by. It's scary that life can be so mundane and repetitive (I have referenced the movie "Groundhog Day" numerous times this past year) yet it can be over in a blink. There were times it felt like the days were going to last forever... now I look back at those days when Parker slept more on me than anywhere else and all I could accomplish was eating and showering and I want those days back... well sometimes... I love this kid more than he'll ever know. I look forward to the years to come watching him grow.
tons of presents!
Parker's whale cake. I made the whale of out of a rice krispy treat... his mouth started to melt a little. Oh well. Parker got his own mini cake to destroy.
At 1 year Parker is:
- 21 pounds
- 30 inches
- walking all over the place
- done with crawling
- LOVES Roxy
- likes to play with cars, trucks, things with wheels - even makes a "vroom" noise
- likes horses - smiles and points if one comes on tv
- likes Elmo - smiles and points if he sees Elmo in a store or on tv
- can point to my nose and bellybutton - working on ear, mouth, eyes
- understands A LOT (he'll walk and get a ball, truck, or other object when asked), but still no talking
- eats almost everything; loves goldfish and saltine crackers among other things
- starting to use his practice fork, spoon, and cup - really wants to eat and drink like us
- still hates being changed - screams and rolls around in protest
- has a devilish smile when he knows he's doing something wrong
- still takes two short naps a day
- still wakes up between 4:30 - 5:30 each morning.... uuuuhhhhhhh
