picture update!

tonight i left parker with his daddy and ventured up to campus to mooch off their internet. its kind of nice to be back on campus, but not have any homework to worry about.
a new hat for the summer.... a little girlie maybe but still cute!


i love this picture of parker and my grandma. im secretly my grandma's favorite grandchild. so it makes sense parker is her favorite great grandchild.

my grandpa allred fought a tough battle with pancreatic cancer this year. im glad he was able to meet parker though. his funeral was a very nice tribute to the great life he led. it was so nice to be with my whole family for the weekend.

parker has recently been doing this face... you cant really see it but he will suck in his bottom lip... he gives himself hickies by doing it!

this boy LOVES to be outside. and loves to swing. we got him a bike trailer, and we have enjoyed lots of long bike rides as a family.
he still isnt rolling over much... or at all. occasionally he will go from him tummy to back, but not very often... should i be worried?
he LOVES his jumperoo. keeps him entertained long enough for me to get some house cleaning accomplished.

he also enjoys laying on his side. he will roll over to his side but wont go to his tummy because he hates to be on it. i try to give him tummy time. he will last maybe 5 min till his is screaming! maybe one day he will enjoy it.

even if he isnt rolling over, he can sure sit up all by himself now! and loves to be up and playing. he gets a little discouraged when he throws his toys too far and cant quite reach them. he is getting so big and so fun. he loves his rice cereal, and grabs and reaches for everything these days.

jared is just chugging away at school. i feel like we hardly see him during the week. with no internet he is always on campus doing homework and studying. but he is getting good grades and still really enjoying accounting... i think.

life really is good and really cant get much better... except for maybe getting the internet :)

MIA

okay, so i know ive been missing in action for the last month.... its killing me really. we moved into our new place that was suppose to have internet but for some reason we cant access it.... totally lame. i feel like i miss out on so much now! but it has been kind of nice to not be a total facebook/blog addict anymore. still i miss journaling all of parkers new tricks. he is growing up so fast. i love the new stage he is in. maybe one day we will get the internet to work and i can post pictures, but for now im blog stalking at the public library... i was hoping parker would stay asleep longer so i could do a giant update, but he is awake and im sure the people here would perfer to not hear him scream anymore. since i know i have so many people out there that read this (ya right) to you i say, dont worry... ill be back soon... i hope.
