Mini & Me Weekend

Clint left for Michigan Friday morning to spend the weekend with his friends at a race so Parker and I had the weekend to ourselves!


Friday I picked him up from Grandma & Grandpa Reed's and we played with Zoe and relaxed. He woke up around 10:30 and wouldn't go back to sleep so we snuggled in bed together! He must not have wanted mommy to sleep alone :)







Saturday we met Hilary around 10 and headed to the Children's Museum! We played for a couple hours and then had lunch. He was so excited to dip his food in ketchup! Then we went and played for a couple more hours! He had so much fun! 



He passed out as soon as he got in the car and then stayed asleep once we got home. I was a little tired so I laid down with him on the couch and took a short nap. He however kept sleeping! He took a 2.5 hour nap! and let me remind you that he only takes two thirty minute naps a day normally! 


After he was refreshed (and Hilary too) he had a snack (which Zoe got half of) and then we walked around the neighborhood picking the old dandelions and blowing them, picking up rocks and sticks, and laying in the grass. Then we went to El Meson for dinner! He loves the beans and rice! He also enjoys eating chips and salsa now that he knows how to dip them! 

He decided to be a major maniac and acted crazy the whole time we were there....note to self: never take him out after a two and a half hour nap!


Scotty and Hilary read him bunches of books before bedtime.


Sunday morning we woke up and went to Panera for breakfast. We go to Panera on Sunday mornings almost every week. He almost always behaves perfectly. Well, someone decided they were still going to be a maniac! He sat in his high chair for about 5 minutes. Then he kept standing up because the seat belts never can hold him in! So I held him...then put him in a chair...then held him...then he finally wiggled away and stared out the window at the cars on Rockville Rd. Finally I packed us up because wild man was too much for me! Then we went to the grocery store for a few things and he was much better behaved :)





Later today we went to Hummel Park because the weather finally cleared somewhat! He wasn't really feeling the playground but he was super excited to use his new scoop and bucket at the creek! He filled his bucket with water and rocks, threw a bajillion rocks, and splashed both of us. We stopped by the splash pad for a few and then made our way to the car after picking up every leaf we could find.

(don't mind the naked baby booty)

On the way home we stopped for ice cream! Once we got home Parker had to feed Zoe (because he is obsessed with feeding her!). Clint got home about 6 and by then Parker was pretty wore out! We had dinner and he had a bath and was out! Too much fun this weekend!



16 Months

Mr. P-Man is going to be 16 months old this weekend! He is growing so fast but I love every minute of it! He is saying more words all the time and he is finally responding somewhat to questions. We definitely hear or see no the most because he knows how mischievous he can be ;)

Wing Beast!

Playscape at the museum is awesome!

He had an ouchie on his toe so he needed a bandaid and he was obsessed with it.

Fun times at the park.

and of course a few videos...

My new favorite video...I've probably watched it 30 times!

He loves to play peek a boo.

This kid is obsessed with cleaning!

His favorite thing to do at the park is throw rocks.

Baby giggles!

Eating ketchup. Only ketchup.

My mom bought him a tent and the first time he got in there, it fell over!

I had Back to School Night tonight...so I'm gonna keep it short and simple! Like Parker!

15 Months

You would think that I would blog more during the summer since I am on break...but we just have too much fun during the day and at night I am wore out or trying to get my classroom ready! School starts next week!!

Our little boy changes so much these days it's hard to keep up! One thing hasn't changed though...he is still the same size! It's hard to believe that he's only gained 3 pounds since January...especially after he eats and he walks around with the biggest pot belly you've ever seen! He's been 30 inches since January too...short like his daddy :)

He has added a few words recently...he finally said wawa (water) in addition to boom (broom), up, down, and nana (banana). He says bye kitty when we leave the playroom which is upstairs. He loves saying hi whenever he sees someone new or someone pass by but he hasn't quite gotten the hang of saying bye before someone leaves. As soon as they're gone, he says bye and gives a big wave!

He still loves carrying around brooms, mops,  or Swiffers. He loves dancing! Most of the time when he hears music he starts to sway, sometimes clapping or 'snapping'. He loves bending over standing on his head and laying on the dog & cat. He picks up the cat sometimes...she is very patient with him. I didn't declaw Lucy but she has never scratched him! She purrs almost the whole time he bugs her...even when he's sitting on her she is still purring.

 
 He makes the best faces when he's eating...and here is his first selfie!

 
total goon face!

See that raggedy ole bear? It was Clint's when he was a boy and of course Parker loves it.

He likes to try on my headbands...for about two seconds.


He is always trying to cuddle the pets!



 

I love these two pics!

If you made it to the end, congrats! I should blog more often so I don't have so many pics and videos to upload at once!
