Kid Cinema

Thursday, September 24, 2009

Last Saturday, Bevan, Mara (bevan's sister), Galene (Bevan's mom), and I all deep cleaned our house in order to get it ready to sell. Mara has a set of twins that are just two and a half months older than Parker, and she brought them over as well. Since there were 3 babies, and 4 adults- we needed something to entertain the little kidlets while we finished cleaning. So Mara popped in her Baby Einstein DVD- and all 3 babies were mesmerized. It was the cutest thing in the world.




Stadium seating, with a good view- all they were missing was their popcorn and diet coke!


Parker got most excited on the Dogs section, and the Bugs section. I can hang with her loving dogs- but NOT bugs. Please oh please do not let her like bugs.

I seriously can not get enough of this little girl! It's amazing to me how big she's getting. I swear each time I pick her up, she's heavier than the time before!

Here she is "helping" me in the kitchen. Really she just likes to sit there and watch me. Sometimes she talks, other times she watches quietly. Its interesting that shes fascinated by so many different things.



This picture cracks me up. Her hair is finally starting to come in up front, so when you put a head band on her- it looks like she just got a really bad buzz cut.


3 months old!



Our little Parka-pooh is now 3 months old- well,actually closer to 3 and a half months old- but lets face it: I am lazy and often times don't want to blog.
But anyways, here are some 3 month stats:

*I'm guessing she weighs around 13-14 lbs.
*Sleeps 7-9 hours a night, depending on her mood.
*Can roll over from tummy to back
*FINALLY likes tummy time
*Can giggle (although we've only heard it a few times)
*Tends to be more of a mama's girl- but loves loves loves her daddy. She likes to watch him walk all over the house
*Talks and babbles non stop (her tone often indicates that she's complaining...)
*Has to be in the mix of things- she wants to be facing forward almost always so she can see everyone and everything.
*Likes to try and sneak her thumb in her mouth- but she positions it in a way that we can't always tell she's doing it.

Here are some pictures of our adorable little monkey:

Strike a pose!
I call this her "I love lucy" outfit because it reminds me of Lucille Ball for some reason. But when I'm in the kitchen either cooking, or cleaning- she likes to sit in her bumbo and watch.





Her montly pic with her Thor dog. And of course, doomsday being the little ham he is wouldn't get out of the way.



Stories from this month:

She giggled for the VERY first time at her baby-sitters. Crappy, huh? She only goes to the sitter SEVEN hours a week, and of course it had to be during that time that she giggled. But the first time I heard her giggle was about a week ago. I had taken her for a walk around the neighborhood, and when we got back- I just left her in her stroller and took the dogs out back (because they've been feeling rather neglected lately) and was throwing the ball for them. I positioned her stroller so she could watch us, and one minute I look over at her- and she's staring off in space, and drooling- and the next minute I hear her just laughing up a storm. So I stop and look over at her, and she's just grinning from ear to ear. I couldn't quite figure out what she was laughing at. So I pick up the ball, and throw it again- and she starts laughing hysterically. It was sooo dang cute. I'm not even going to lie- I cried a little bit because it was the most precious sound I've ever heard.

We love you Parker.

I have tasted my own medicine- and it is bitter!
