Innocence... right?

Such a sweet and innocent child he is. Or does he have a motive? I put Parker in his crib the other night so that I could clean his room while I ran the bath water and not have to worry about him getting into dirty diapers or jumping in the tub. I finished his room, turned off the water and returned to the crib to undress him and get him ready for the bath. I took his clothes off and diaper. Now, I don't know if it was the cold air or what!? He then proceeded to pee all over his bed. I tried by best to catch it in the diaper, but have very little luck. To make it even better... he giggled the whole time. Innocent? Maybe... maybe not. We shall see when he turns 18. Or 16. Hmmm, he is Preston's... we shall see when he turns 2.

We also received his professional 12 month photos today. He also let his 'mark' there too. During his birthday 'suit' session he got a cupcake to smash to pieces. When he was done with it he then peed all over the leftovers. It was priceless.

One Year Ago Today

Here it is 11-18-09! Parker is officially 1 at 9:31pm! I can hardly believe my 7lbs 1oz, 19.5" baby is now 24lbs 8oz and 29"! I don't know what amazes me more: him growing and developing at such a rapid pace in 12 months or my discovery of how rewarding and euphoric motherhood is. It has been the most amazing, breathtaking, life changing, momentous year of my life.

Parker, you are the light of my life, the heart of my soul, and everything that I live for... you are what I dreamed of and have the most capturing smile and energy. God bless you for everything you have brought to my life. Happy First Birthday my sweet little glowbug!

The First Party!

I haven't posted in awhile since I have been planning this first birthday party, but here it is! Parker was so entertained the entire afternoon. I was worried he would feel overwhelmed with all the people in the house, but he didn't even pay attention to them. He just wanted to play! After we had a light lunch, Parker opened all his gifts ~ he ran away with the store! He got so many cute clothes and lots of fun toys. Since the party he has been in Heaven with all the new fun stuff he has. After the gifts he ripped into his cake - very hesitant at first. Daddy gave him a taste and then Parker had no problems finishing the task at hand. He did so well all day. The only problem we had was bedtime. He had so much fun and was so busy playing he did NOT want to go to bed. All in all, he had a great day and it will be a very memorable one for us. Thanks to all who came!
