5 Years

It is hard to believe this was only five years ago!

We celebrated our anniversary by going to dinner at Vivace (YUM!) and then we watched our wedding video with Colin and Parker. Colin was naming everyone in the video and then asked where he was ;). I am so thankful for these last five years and I can't wait for the next seventy!

Class of 2010

On the 15th Cody graduated from the UofA!!

Congratulations Cody! We are SO proud of you!

7 months

Parker is crawling! He is all over the place, I can't take my eyes off of him for a second!! His poor knees are always red and rug burned but he is loving that he can move! He still has just the one tooth (bottom left). If you look really close you can kind of see it in these pictures. He is getting so big I can hardly carry him in his car seat anymore! He loves sitting in the stroller and is such a good shopper :). I decided to move Parker into Colin's room so we can make Parker's old room into a playroom. They both seem to like sharing a room so far and they definitely love their new playroom! It is so fun to see Colin and Parker together. Colin always makes Parker laugh. It is the cutest thing, he plays peek-a-boo with him and makes funny faces at him and Parker laughs so hard! Even in the car Parker tries to sit forward and watch Colin who is usually doing something silly. I know I'd better soak it up now because I am sure in a few years instead of squeaks and giggles it will be yelling and crying! Parker has been a little attached to me in situations where there are a lot of people. Especially if he can't see me, his bottom lip goes out, his eyes get red and he starts crying. It is pretty normal at his age since he is becoming more and more aware of everything and everyone around him. But for the most part, he is still a happy boy! As of today, Parker is a bottle only baby. No more nursing! It is a little bitter/sweet for me but it was definitely time. Parker is getting so big and was always so distracted every time he nursed. What happened to my little infant?!!

I love my sweet P!

bowl-o-rama!!

For Cody's birthday, we had a little family bowling party. It was so fun! Of course my mom went above and beyond and we had the cutest bowling party ever!

My mom made the most AMAZING cake for Cody!

My mom also got cute socks for everyone to wear...even the little boys :)

We had an awesome STAR WARS birthday party for Colin! It was a lot of fun and I think we all had too much sugar! I still can't believe my baby is THREE!

The morning of his party, Colin opened a couple presents...

a little table from Yia Yia and Papa

And a Star Wars tent playhouse from Mom and Dad!

The Party:

Darth Vader centerpieces (thanks Mom!)

I gave everything fun Star Wars names...

Chewbacca Chips

Windu Watermelon

(We also had Padawan Pizza but I didn't get a picture of it)

Of course all four of us had to wear Star Wars shirts!

Beautiful day for a party!

On Colin's actual birthday we went to Peter Piper Pizza for dinner!

Colin loved it and Parker was holding on for dear life!
