Pause

I wish I could press the “pause” button. Why is life going by so quickly these days?! Since I cant press “pause”, I thought I would capture a few of Parker’s milestones, likes and dislikes in a list. That way we can look back on June 2009 and remember what our little ladybug was up to. One of my favorite things as a parent is watching Parker grow and change. The little things that no one but Garett or I care about. We are in awe of her. So, here goes. Just a few:

+ She is officially doing the sign for “more”. It is amazing to see her communicate! She also does “all done” but it is the same as goodbye, hello, and the Beyonce “all the single ladies” dance. So we just go with it.
+ She HATES her car seat and will wiggle and squirm and yell with all her might in hopes of getting out of it. And she is a strong little thing!
+ She loves music and still does a dance anytime there are good tunes playing
+ She love Veggie Booty and could eat a whole bag if we let her
+ She loves her Miss Bunny stuffed animal and will reach for it any time we put her down to sleep. Sometimes we think she might love bunny more than us.
+ She loves to swing and could swing all day. AND throws a fit every time we take her out.
+ Her dad can make her laugh harder than anyone. Just a quick peek a boo and he can have her going
+ She likes to play with the swiffer and anything in a kitchen cupboard.
+ She pulls up on everything, likes to climb stairs and likes to show off that she can balance on her own two feet.

Hopefully, in a year these will jog our memory. Here are a couple of recent pics to go along with the list....

PS Yes, those are nail clippers in her mouth. Safety first!

Off to California for Karen's baby shower and some family time!!
