Parker - Month Two

Parker turned two months old on January 25th...these two months have flown by! His two month appointment and shots went well.
Here are some of his milestones at two months:
Weight - 12 lbs 7 oz (75th percentile)
Height - 23 inches (50th percentile)
Head - 16 1/4 inches (75th percentile)
Sleeping about 5-7 hours a night
Smiles a lot
Coos

He didn't like his shots too much and his little legs were sore, but he handled it like a trooper.

Parker - Month One

Christmas 2011

Christmas this year was a little crazy with a one month old and 3 year old! We spent Christmas morning celebrating our first Christmas as a family of 4. Ryleigh loved all of her presents, especially her Minnie scooter from Santa! Then we headed over to Jarred's parents to celebrate with his family, the traditional breakfast and then opening presents one by one. After a nap and break at home, we headed over to my parents for the afternoon and dinner and opening more presents. Ryleigh was exhausted after a crazy, busy day. Needless to say she slept late the next morning! Nevertheless we still enjoyed our favorite time of year!

Too many presents!



Silly daddy


Santa left one present at MiMi & PapPaw's...her cd player!

Parker was exhausted from the day too! :)

Christmas Program

Ryleigh had her preschool Christmas program on Wednesday, December 14th. We got there early, but not early enough...lesson learned for the next program! :)
She did so good singing the Christmas songs with her class along with 3 other 3 year-old classes. We heard these songs for months...and still hear them!

Photo Shoot

I found several cute photo ideas from pinterest that I wanted to try on Parker. A few were successful, but the others not so much. Posing a newborn is not as easy as it looks!
Here are a few of the "good" ones...
