April 23rd-3 months!

It's amazing how quickly these little guys change! Parker is a fantastic baby! We are so blessed! He's such a happy boy! He smiles all the time and is quite the chatterbox! He coos and squeals a lot more than Camden did at this age. Parker still talks a lot while he's eating and getting his diaper changed, but he also likes to chat it up in the bath, during tummy time, and when he wakes up. This past month seemed to bring a lot of changes...Parker moved to his crib full time, we began "crying it out" so he would learn to fall asleep on his own (this was BRUTAL at first. I emailed a few friends out of desperation, but I just had to give it time. Now, it's rare for him to cry at all when he goes down for a nap or bed--phew!), he is discovering his hands and sucking on them a lot, grabbing/batting his toys, lifting his head super high during tummy time, and pushing with his feet while laying on his back (he ended up at the top of his crib during a few naps). Parker loves...watching Camden's every move, "singing" with Mommy as he's getting swaddled, bath time, when Daddy comes home, mirrors, looking at his dog toy during tummy time, his aquarium playmat, books, and giving all three of us big smiles! He is such a sweet boy! He is the perfect addition to our family and we love him more than words can express!

3 months!

So many people do cute signs or have the little stickers for onesies...my poor kid gets the ghetto hand-written sign with a marker that's running out! Good thing he's cute!

He got a little tired of sitting up.

Love him!

This boy weighs 16 pounds 6 ounces!

(Camden was 12 lbs 14 oz. at this age)

Love those baby blues!

Check out that belly line

Cheeks and chins!

Growing fast!

Loving the bath

Hi Mommy!

A Fireman and a Baby

As I've said before, Camden loves Parker! He is the best big brother! Camden wants to kiss, hug, touch, and lay next to his little bro, but it is rare that he wants to actually hold him. So, when he asked to hold the babe (after grabbing the Boppy, of course) I had to get the camera! Here's my sweet fireman--he randomly wants to wear his "suit"--with my sweet baby.

Ready and waiting!

Parker's not too sure, but Camden is all about it!

Kisses!

More love.

Notice the hand hold...love it!

Just hanging out

Here are some recent pics of our little one hanging out. Sometimes I get a little concerned that he has the "second child syndrome" so I feel the need to snap some photos! Parker is full of smiles, I just have a hard time getting it on camera. You'll see from the pics that he usually turns his head to the right as he gives a little grin...so cute!

April 21st & 22nd

Puppet Show

Camden is diggin' puppets these days (as I mentioned in his 2.5 post)! He goes to My Gym where they use a lot of puppets at the end of class. There is one song in particular that has really stuck with our little man and he's all about performing it at home. Here are some shots of him in action.
