Parker at 10 Months

How is he 10 months old?!  So close to 1 year!!  

Stats:19 lbs 15 oz

We only have this one because of all of the dr's visits we had to make this month.

Eating: Still on the same schedule!  7 oz bottles at 7:00am, 10, 1:00pm, 4 and 7:00pm.  We've tried table foods a couple of times, but he just gags on it and spits it out...just like Graham and Bennett used to do at this age!

Sleeping: He's still my champion sleeper!  At night he sleeps 7pm-7am.  He naps about 9 in the morning and from 1-3:30 in the afternoons.

Likes: bath, his brothers, being outside, cruising on furniture, making noise, music

Dislikes: getting his diaper changed, his car seat, having a toy taken away from him

Milestones: Parker is now standing on his own!  He's so close to taking a few steps.  He keeps getting more and more brave.  He had two more ear infections this month and is scheduled for tubes on the 15th.  

Clothes: He is wearing mostly 12 month clothes.  Size 4 diapers.

Favorite Moments: I love watching him discover something new everyday.  He is crawling all over the house and loves to find new things to play with.

Looking forward to: Christmas with all 3 boys!  They are at such fun ages for all of the Christmas fun!

Personality: easy going, happy, flexible, social, loves to cuddle, wants to be right in the middle of whatever his brothers are doing

Still all smiles at one of his many dr visits this month!  

We sure do love our sweet Parker!

Halloween and Fall Fun

We did lots of fun fall things in October!  Unfortunately Halloween was a rainy evening, but we made the best of it.  It was fun coordinating the boys' costumes this year...we'll see how long they let me get away with that!

My 3 Ninja Turtles!!

Bennett with the Ninja moves!

Our street hosted the block party for our side of the neighborhood, and somehow my neighbor and I ended up in charge of it!  We decided to put up a couple of tailgating tents in case of rain, we ordered tons of pizza, and everybody brought sides and drinks.  It turned out great, despite the rain!

Ready to trick or treat!

The dads braving the rain to get some candy for the boys!

A dance party before the rain picked up again.

And then it was a monsoon.

We ate pizza and hung out until the rain let up.

And then they headed out to trick or treat!

Crystal and I decided to stay dry with Parker and Will.

They knew exactly what to do!

My cute skeletons after a fun night!

Bennett also got to dress up for the fall carnival at his school one day.

And our church had some great pumpkin photo ops that we took advantage of one Sunday morning!

Sweet Parker ready for a morning of fun at Blessington Farms!

I got my workout in!

And the boys did too!

Mimi was in town for a few days!

Hayride

Thankfully Mimi was there to take them in the reptile house!

And we ended our super fun morning with the petting zoo!

I can't believe Thanksgiving is already next week!
