Parker is growing so fast I can hardly keep up! He has so much energy and is advanced in so many things sometimes I forget he is only a 1 year old. The picture below was actually taken a couple of months ago but I love it! Parker absolutely adores his daddy and he looks JUST like him. He is always getting into his ties and shoes and pretending he is the man of the house :)
Parker loves to play with balls and trucks...all the usual little boy favorites but he LOVES to read too! He loves Dr. Seuss books and Sandra Boynton books. His favorite is "Barnyard Dance." I don't get as much time to read to this sweet boy as I did to Noah but when I do I treasure ever moment. He loves to point to each picture and all the different parts of the picture. I love snuggling with this sweet little man.
He is so fascinated by how things work and where things go. He is my little curious George :) Here you see him desperately trying to put on his own shoes. He is so independent and wants so badly to keep up with his best buddy Noah. Lately he has learned to eat with a fork and spoon by himself. He refuses to eat anything without a fork (even if it doesn't require one) because he wants to master this new and exciting skill. I love it :)
Parker is adjusting to being a big brother so well! My heart was so broken for him at first because he truly didn't understand what was going on. Now he loves his little sister and he is learning (keyword "learning") to be gentle with her and what it looks like having her in our lives. The cool part is that he will look back and never remember a time without her. I love how close in age they are even though it's tough while they are young. I love Lily's expression in the above picture...she loves her big brother so much!
