3, 4, & 5 Months


Man, I'm either a slacker or time flies!! Maybe a little bit of both. This summer has FLOWN by! We only have a couple weeks left here in CA which is sad but we are excited to get back to Utah and all of our friends there. But Parker has grown like a weed this summer! It is so hard to believe. Even compared to other babies I see, he is a giant in comparison. I looked up his stats the other day and they are as follows:


Weight: 17 lbs - 50-75%

Height: 24.5 inches - 5-10%

Head circumference - 18% ABOVE 95%


So he is short with average weight and a HUGE noggin, but I don't think he looks out of proportion but then again I am a little biased. Anyway, here are some pictures from the past 3 months, sorry I am such a slacker, hopefully I'll be better once we get back to school. Enjoy!



Some of my recent favorites:

  • He still screams bloody murder if you dare interrupt him while he is eating and I still find it hilarious.
  • He is laughing a lot more now which is the BEST!
  • He is always smiling! We are blessed with such an amazing baby. He is truly only sad when he is hungry.
  • He gets super excited and shakes his arms and legs to express it
  • He is SUPER talkative. I think he is going to take after his mother in this way, my parents used to call me Motor-Mouth. So it might drive me crazy in a couple of years, but for now I cant get enough of it!
  • He loves to eat his feet which is also fun to watch.
  • He still loves to fly, read books, and look at the adorable baby in the mirror.
  • He can sit up by himself which is fun and can roll halfway over
  • He is even starting to scoot to his toys that are out of reach. I don't think I'm ready for him to be mobile yet . . .
  • It is fun to feed him, he loves to chew on the spoon.
  • He also likes to hold his own bottle
  • He is really starting to develop a personality now and know how to whine to get our attention. The best part is as soon as we turn to him he is all smiles. Such a faker!!
  • He is sleeping great and can really recognize people now.
He is so much fun!!! I am amazed that I love him more and more each day!!

Parker is so cute! I agree, they grow like weeds. It makes me sad sometimes that they grow so fast.
I'm so excited to see you guys in a few weeks!
I think by then I can go walking (maybe shorter walks), so we should go walking while the weather is still warm!

Hooray! I'm so excited to see you guys and hold Parker because the last time I did was when you were moving and he was tiny! We'll have to start up FHE again, if you guys want to. I'm so happy to get my husband AND my best friends back! what a long summer

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

Em's Blessing

Emily's Blessing day was so great! Since we were moving home so soon after she was born, we decided to just wait until we got out here to CA so our family could be there for it. It was pretty low key compared to P's (and by that I mean less family there) but was still just as wonderful. Jeff gave a beautiful blessing. It was also special because she wore the dress I was sealed to my parents in. Jeff wasn't a fan of how long it was for such a small baby, but it was so neat for her to wear something that is so special in my family. The P-man looked like a little stud in his outfit too! I wish I would have gotten some of the two of them together, o-well. It was a fabulous day! Thanks so much for all the family and friends that were there, it meant so much to have you there and we missed those who couldn't come! Isn't she so perfect! I love this picture of her laying on the grass. She is so pure and clean and perfect ! I love her!

Disneyland

A little late but . . . We Went To Disneyland! So you may or may not know that we went to Disneyland back in July. It was so much fun! As we were planning the trip I was really worried about how it would be taking 2 babies there, in my mind they were way too young to do anything there but boy was I wrong! All of us had a great time and we all went on tons of rides, even Emily! Here is a list of all the rides we went on: (The bold ones were P's very favorites) Disneyland Railroad Train Enchanted Tiki Room The Jungle Cruise Tarzan's Tree House Pirates of the Caribbean Haunted Mansion Winnie the Pooh It's a Small World Story Book Land canal boats King Aurthur's Carousel Dumbo Mad Tea Party Tea Cups Peter Pan Mr. Toad's Wild Ride Pinocchio Finding Nemo Submarine Autopia (Cars) Did you know babies could do this much! I sure didn't! I even nursed during 4 of the above mentioned rides which was so nice and saved tons of time! They both did so well on all of the...
