3 Months

I really need to get with the program and do this on time :) Parker is just growing so fast! During month 3 he has started rolling over from back to tummy and only a couple times from tummy to back. He has decided that he likes to sleep on his tummy at night too and it freaks me out :) Thats another thing is he has graduated from mom and dads room to his own room in is own bed. I was quite sad about this but he wasn't sleeping good in our room so Josh said it was time. He has been doing pretty good sleeping through the night. He usually sleeps about 6 hours and then eats and goes back to bed for 3 more. He has also learned to grab toys, my hair, and the hair on grandpa Stan's chest :) He is starting to laugh and recognize who Mom and Dad are. He went on his 2nd vacation to Oregon and even made it to the Ocean :) My mom, Parker, and I got a wild hair and decided to drive to Oregon and surprise my sister for her baby shower. It was the greatest surprise ever. Parker did really good for driving 14 hours both ways. We love our little guy so much and can't wait for whats to come!!

Meeting Uncle Mathew

Josh's little brother has been in the Marines the past 4 years and we have missed him so much. So much has changed since he has been gone. We have helped him with several suprise visits and his final time coming home we were able to go get him. This was Parker's first time meeting Mathew. We are so happy for his safe return and for all his service he has done the past 4 years! We love you Mathew and are so happy to have you home!!

2 months/Blessing

I am really slow at getting Parkers 2 month post up and his blessing pictures. I took him in on August 22 for his 2 month check up and he is doing good :) He weighed 10lbs 9oz(13%) and he was 23 inches long(7%). He grew really long, but is still skinny!! Parker LOVES to smile all the time and has been sleeping pretty much through the night til he got a cold the last week. He can hold his head up so good and loves to be up looking around at everything. He got a new play mat and he absolutely loves it! I can't believe he will be 3 months on the 10th. On August 20 we had an awesome day with his blessing and Rylee's 3rd birthday. We waited til then so that Mathew would be home from the Marines and that Justin, Ashlee, and Rylee could be here. Parker was blessed by his Great Grandpa Russ and he did an amazing blessing. I couldn't have asked for a more special day. We had a huge crowd and yummy food. After the blessing we celebrated Rylee's birthday. Great Grandpa RussGreat-Great Grandma Von
