Six Months Of Parker


Parker turned six months old yesterday. We continue to feel so blessed to have been chosen to be the parents of such an amazing gift. He brings us such joy on a daily basis. He is constantly growing and changing.

Some things about Parker:
  • He is still measuring tall and skinny- 95% in height and 25% in weight
  • He is a great sleeper and prefers to sleep on his stomach with his behind in the air
  • He enjoys playing with his feet and sucking on his hands
  • Some of his favorite toys are his caterpillar, elephant, and Clifford
  • He is rolling all over the floor and enjoys batting at the toys that hang above him on his play mat
  • He is experimenting daily with his voice and is making some pretty sweet sounds
  • He likes bath time and splashes water everywhere as he kicks
  • He almost always gets the hiccups when he laughs too hard
  • He is becoming more and more alert to the things around him and is grabbing for more and more objects
  • Mark and the dogs still continue to get some of his biggest smiles
  • He naps in the morning for about an hour and takes a longer nap in the afternoons
  • He has started cereal but is still not quite sure what he thinks about it
  • Some of our favorite times with him are when he first wakes up and we put him in bed between us. He talks, smiles, and coos, and often falls back to sleep snuggled up next to us
  • He continues to be our calm, content, handsome, and happy little man
