Well it's official Parker is now closer to ONE than to being a newborn!! I was crazy to think that time would slow down for this 5th baby of ours but it in fact seems to be going faster. Parker is just so full of life and is really a great baby for us. She's been a little sick this past month and is right in the middle of getting those first few teeth so sleep has been a little lacking and restless. Aside from those two things going on this month Parker is just so happy. Every day she is giggling and smiling and her excitement continues to show in her whole body. Any bad day is quickly erased when you see her smile at you.
She has perfected her monster noises and is really great at using them to show you how excited she is about something. I think she is most excited about eating and her sisters... but I could go out on a limb and say her favorite is E A T I N G . Don't even think about putting her in the highchair without following with some food. Show her a spoon or bowl and this little one knows exactly what is coming her way. Even if it's a food she can't have she will still try to take it from you or try to win you over with her smile and entire body shaking so that you will give it to her. She will eat anything and we haven't found any food she doesn't like. New to her this month are puffs and apples, we put apple slices in her mesh teether and she goes to town... I may or may not have given her an actual apple piece just tonight to gum on. Her second favorite is her sisters, remember back when Parker was just 2 and 3 months?? Her sisters wanted to play with her all the time and it just wasn't all that fun when Parker couldn't play back. Now that little miss can sit up on her own and play with toys the twins are absolutely loving it. They play with her all the time and even sing to her when she is upset. The are the best big sisters (of course so are Kendal and Madison). I really couldn't ask for anything better from these 4 girls.
Next week Parker gets to go on her first flight to visit her cousin Paisley for her big First Birthday.. I have a feeling we are going to hear lots of Monster Noises on this flight! It's hard to believe how lucky we have been with FIVE super easy babies... Parker is certainly one of THE easiest of the five, she just goes with the flow of everything. If she has to wait to eat, or wait to get out of the car, or even wait an extra few minutes in her crib after she wakes up she just does it. We love this little one so very much and she brings so much joy and happiness to our entire family.
Happy 7 Months Parker Elaine!!
