Parker's Blessing

Whew! Things are busy with three kids, two pets, and one husband (who is really just another kid)! It's been almost two weeks since Parker had his baby blessing at church. He got his own new outfit to wear and he looks even cuter in it now than he did that day!

I'm never crazy about how I look in these pictures, but it's just part of the tradition for the new mother to look fat I guess.

All three boys with Grandma and Grandpa

One child looking pleasant, the other two not so much....

Parker and his closest cousin, Ben, getting to know each other. I think they will be good friends!

Holy smokes Dad!!

These are some more pictures I took today. (I had to hurry before he grows out of the outfit!) You can see how much he has changed just in two weeks!

< I also played dress-up with my live baby doll. He has lots of hats that came with his clothes, but I never use them since they don't stay on more than 30 seconds. So we tried on some hats and took pictures. These are my favorites.

What a face! The fun was over after this shot!

Parker is so well-loved by his brothers. Yesterday he was fussy and everyone was occupied for a minute, so Spencer went in and held his hand and turned on his musical mobile. He is a sweet boy. One day Carson stroked Parker's head very gently and said, "I like his head--it's so soft and furry."

Parker looks great in a hat. Must be customary for Grandmas to look old at baby blessings and grandpas to look silly.
