Florida Time

I'm so pumped! Parker and I are packing up today and a little in the morning to head to DeQueen then we are off to Florida! I'm excited about seeing Parker in the ocean and playing in the sand. I'm curious to see what she will think of it all. This is the first time that we have gone minus a few people. Jeff, my brother and Amy, his fiance, won't be able to go this year. I'm pretty bummed because we have been together a few times and always had a blast. I'll make sure to post tons of pictures when we get back or at least I'll try. See ya next week!

Bathtime, Earplugs and Good Fun

Parker seemed to be having such a great time in the tub the other night, I thought I would post a few pictures of her bubble blowing good fun. Isn't she just too cute in those awful ear plugs?! Hopefully not too much longer and we can get rid of those things for good. They are a PAIN!



The Conway Fiasco

This past weekend we went down to Conway to visit the grandparents, cousins and such. Parker had the chance to see almost all of her cousins and a few of her aunts. She enjoyed some time in the pool, playing in the yard and all the attention from her older cousins. We had a great time swimming and just visiting. Hopefully we can go back real soon. Here are a few pictures from our wonderful time.

Around the House




I decided to take a few pictures while Parker and I were playing around the house. She has a "new" old slide that her grandma sent home with her to play on. She has so much fun on. She slides so fast down and just laughs so hard. I had also made some brownies and she had to try out the goods with a little evidence on her lips! A nice and fun day so far.

To DeQueen Again




Parker and I made the trip to DeQueen on Saturday to have a little visit with my family and we had a great time swimming and just relaxing. She loves being in the pool and wouldn't get out when it was time. She did get a nice little tan unlike me! I have a nice sunburn. All and all it was a good visit and we are going back the 18th and then we are off to FLORIDA!!!

Fireworks and Fun..







We decided to go and buy a few fireworks since there wasn't anywhere in Fayetteville that was doing a fireworks show this year. Sad I know. So we picked up some Roman Candles, Sparklers and other little fireworks. Unfortunately, Parker was more interested in a stray cat roaming around than the actual fireworks themselves. She would occasionally ooh and ahh at a few things but there was never any true interest. I really thought she would love the sparklers but I was wrong. I guess towards the end she thought they were interesting but not enough to really care. I did get a few good pictures of her watching her daddy light them and play with them.

Swim Time

getting ready for a swim..

Last night, Jeff and I took Parker to Family Swim at Fayetteville's pool. This is the first time we have actually been swimming this year besides in the little pool in the backyard. She played in the kiddie pool for a while and visited with a few little girls. We decided to take her to the big pool and see what she thought. She seemed to be having a lot of fun but was shivering like crazy too. The sun was going down so it wasn't so warm. She unfortunately had to wear ear plugs too since the tubes are still in there. All and all, I think we had a great time and we can't wait to take her swimming some more. Hopefully this weekend and next weekend she will get some good swimming time in!***Disregard the whale holding Parker***
