Ella loves Uncle J!

Hey! I'm backwards!


Hmmm...how can I get out of this?

Let me just say...Ella just adores her Uncle J and he just loves her too. He will come over just to visit with her. Anyway he got in a hurry one day and this is how I found her...backwards in her walker...too funny!!!!

Tanner's Funny

I came home from work...took Ella inside...came back outside to find Tanner in the passenger seat ready to go. He just cracks me up!

Dinner giggles

Ella just thinks Mommy is the funniest person alive (naturally), and she sure was cracking up at Mommy while eating dinner the other day. Could these smiles get any bigger? I just love them!!

Ready to go

Daddy has Ella ready to go hunting and he's even going to let her drive!

April Update

Hi guys! Sorry it's taken so long for an update, but not much is going on. Ella is doing well. She just got over a double ear infection so she's much happier. When she went to the doctor this morning to recheck her ears, she weighed 21 lbs. She's definitely my healthy girl. But she has been amazing to be around. She is so much fun. She's talking to us (starting to say bye-bye and dadada), eating all kinds of baby food and some people food, still only has two teeth, running around in her walker (and I mean running), being a bully in her class at school (we're working on that), she's starting to give hugs and saying "aaaugh" at the same time when she's giving you lovings, loving her 7:30-8:00 bedtime, and still loving her bath (she could stay in there all night). Those are just a couple of things I can think of. Jeremy and I are doing well. I've been busy with work lately and Jeremy just joined a golf league, so he's very excited. Hope everyone is doing well and we will add pictures soon.

Easter

The fam freezing after church

Ella's first Easter was wonderful. It was a little chilly, but nothing we couldn't handle. The Easter Bunny came and visited her and brought lots of fun things. We went to church that morning with Nannie and she was a wonderful church goer. Didn't have to get up once with her, which was a good thing considering we were in the second row (thanks Jeremy for picking the seats). We had a wonderful holiday as a family and hope everyone did the same.

Is he jealous?

This is what happens to Ella's area/toys after she goes to bed...

First Playground Trip

Well we took Ella to the playground for the first time yesterday since the temp has been in the low 70's. Arlington built this great playground for the kids about 2 years ago, and this was our first visit to it. Boy, was it great! I have a feeling we will be spending a lot of time up there as Ella gets older since she already loves it. Don't forget...you can click on the picture and it will pop up in a window for a bigger version.

This is the best you're going to get

You would not believe how hard it is to get a picture of this tooth. Every time we pull down on her bottom lip to see the tooth out comes the tongue covering it. She's like a pez dispenser. We could finally get a tiny glimpse in these two pictures as she was eating her prunes, which she likes by the way.

It's a snowy kind of March

Well we had some inches fall in Memphis Friday. Ella got to go outside and play in it, but she wasn't too enthralled. But Tanner loved it.

Remember that fit I was telling you about?

6 month pictures

Here are a couple of Ella's 6 month pictures that were taken on Saturday. And she has a tooth!!! It came through last week. And it feels like she has a couple more that should be here soon. So, of course, thats making her a little cranky. Lets see...what else...oh, yeah...she threw a bloody fit at us the other day. Mommy asked very nicely if she could see the toy that Ella was playing with, and she was not having it. As soon as I took it away out came a large scream. We could not believe it. Of course we got it on video. So as soon as we can figure out how to upload video's on here we'll share it with you. So things are going very well in the Parker house. She's growing and changing daily and is such a wonderful blessing to have. We feel in awe that God has entrusted us to take care of her. Amazing!
