too long!

I have to get back into this! I havent done my "brady at 3, and parker at one- milestone post!

Want to update quick tho, that we have had a long road of ear infections since October, and we are doing tubes next week! (parker this is!) Hope things turn around for that kid.

Parker's latest- blowing kisses! It is awesome!

updates!

over the weekend we celebrated both of the little boy's birthdays! The boys both enjoyed it I think.

Last night parker fell and (over nothing, and just walking!) eye landed on book. I took him to ER because I was quite concerned about his eye and the cut on the bottom. (the lower pict, you can really see the u shaped cut well). Long story short, P is tough. It took 3 of us to hold him down just to examine his eye. I wont tell you about getting the rectal temp! whoa. Doc said he technically should get a stich or glue in that lower lid cut (eye ball is fine) but to do that w.out sedation would be impossible. I agreed. And to sedate for this wsant worth it. I agreed. Unfortunatly, by not doing a stich the scar will probably be bigger and take longer to heal. But it was the right decision.

soap.com

Oh, I have discovered and fallen in love with Soap.com and diapers.com. Mostly soap.com because I love Target brand diapers. :) It is fabulous for busy people! I love it because I can place my orders on my lunch break, get free shipping, and it ships to my house in just 2 days. Seriously, if you are like me and have a hard time getting to the store- this is fabulous. The prices are very compariable to going to the box stores, sometimes even better because they have sales and coupons.

If you are going to try them out, either soap.com or diapers.com use the referal code crankid and you will get 15% off your first purchase and I will get $$$ for refering you.

Honestly, give it a try!!!

I mean really, is all this chaos in life worth it? GO GO GO. Dont forget this, or that. Pay this bill. File that here. Eat healthy? not really when so many meals are in the car. Enjoy the little things? right.

And dont tell me that is just how life is, because I think it's bs.

pictures below!

Parker at 9 months old

My little peanut had his 9month checkup today. He is 18 lb and 15oz. 25th percentile for weight. 29" long, 75th percentile. He is right where he should be on everything!

Parker has 1 tooth almost in, and 1 just below the surface.
PArker claps when you say YAY! very cute.
He is a professional at army crawling, and he is fast!
He is content and happy most of the time.
Parker usually wakes 1 time a night, and prefers to keep his naps to a slight schedule.
He loves playing with his big brother and following him around the house.
Parker loves to be spoon fed! likes almost everything. He opens so wide it looks like it hurts!
When he gets picked up he usually pats your shoulder.
Parker likes to hug back!

I couldnt imagine my life without my little Parker. :)
