Welcome Parker!




So just a little update for now, for I am too tired and busy lately to put all of the pictures up. There will be more coming soon, I promise! So little Parker arrived at 11:32 PM on Friday the 28th after a very difficult and tiring delivery. I had to push very very hard and fast to get him out because come to find out, this little one had the cord wrapped around his neck twice. Another 10-20 minutes and I would have had to have an emergency C-section. But he is doing fabulous and our little peanut came into this world at 5 pounds 4 ounces and 17 1/2 inches long. One ounce less than Rayden was and the same length. Rayden just loves her little brother but hasn't gotten to hold him and be near him too too much because she has a really bad cold. So more pictures and everything to come soon and Jeff is working on editing a little video that you can all see. Thank-you to everyone for all your support and prayers before, during and after Parker's arrival!

Painting




Rayden has been painting with watercolors lately and boy oh boy does she have a blast. This will keep her occupied and entertained for hours! She loves to pretend to paint her fingernails like mommy, painting in the book and all over herself of course. I am not sure what she has more fun with, painting in the book or on herself. By the looks of these pictures I would say probably herself :) Good thing they are washable!!!

First Haircut




Rayden finally had her first haircut at a haircutting place. She was badly in need of a trim so Sabrina evened it all up for her. Rayden was so good the whole time and sat there like a champ. Evidently it is a lot of fun to get your hair cut.

A New Scarf




A lady from my mom's work made Rayden this pretty new scarf. Rayden loves to wear it everywhere!

A Little Snack




"Parker" was craving ice cream one day while at the mall so we all got a yummy chocolate treat! Rayden seemd to enjoy it!!! What a beautiful mess :)

Blueberry Muffins




Rayden and I made blueberry muffins together one day. She had fun and always loves helping out in the kitchen.
