Happy Holidays!




Here are some pictures I took yesterday of the Parkermeister wearing his Santa hat while in his exersaucer. He is sooooo "toot" as Ziko would say! :) (Parker 23 weeks old)
Hello! Hope everyone is doing well! With the holidays fast approaching. I am frantically trying to create holiday cards to send out.
Here's what we have been up to in one big nutshell!
Shawn is doing his practicum at Golden Gate Middle School (off of Moray in St. James). Thankfully, he only has two weeks left then he's on holidays until the new year (Yippee). Other than that he's been working at Wally World a few nights a week and on the weekends.
As for Parker and I, we have been enjoying hanging out together. The little guy learned to sit up about four weeks ago- it is the best thing since...sliced bread! I can put the cutie-pa-tootie down on his playmat with some toys and actually get some housework done! Whooo Hoooo!
Two and a half weeks ago, Parker started eating solid foods. He blasted past the rice and barley cereals and now he's on oatmeal cereal - he's a cereal eating machine! The first week was fun...I think he had more food on his face than the amount he actually ate! Too funny! In a few more days, he's on to MEAT (so much for being a vegetarian :)) and veggies!
Other than this, Parker and I head to a playgroup on Thursday afternoons at Heritage Park School. Parker loves looking at all the other babies! Then on Fridays, the two of us head to Mommy aerobics from 2 -3 pm. Surprisingly, Parker is the most alert baby in this class! Other babies in the class are completely zonked and sleeping in their car seats...but not Parker! He's HAS to be in the action all the time! Plus it is funny for me to see the other Moms huffing and puffing as they use their 'tiny' babies as free weights...then there's me using an 18 lb + free weight named Parker! The class is a blast and I am going to have the most awesome pipes ever!
