Parker says hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.

When Parker puts his mind to something, he does it!

Summer with Parker!

Got bottle?

What's it take to get a drink around here?

Pool? Did you say pool?

It is very difficult to look adorable in this giant life jacket, Mom.

Many of you know that for the past three summers Mike and I have spent a lot of time in CA and other parts of the country. We have missed three summers at home, enjoying the yard, our garden and friends and family on the 4th of July. We have missed the fun of being home for the summer together! Well, now we have all that time to spend with Parker--- and then some! We are particularly excited because we just got a new boat and have been really enjoying all the fun parts of summer--- especially with the latest heat wave! We are so lucky to both be teachers and love our jobs the way we have. Parker has experienced many firsts the past couple weeks at the start of the summer, here's just a few.

1. First swim in Nana's pool
2. First swim in Sacandaga Lake (well except for in utero)
3. First ice cream cone (well, a couple licks!)
4. First pickle (He teethed on it and didn't mind the taste!)
5. First fireworks (slept through it!)
6. First trip to Jumpin' Jacks
7. First boat ride!
8. First baby cousin!!! (Welcome Baby Henry!)
9. First trip to a restaurant where he sat in a high chair (and tried to put everything in his mouth)
10. First bout of shrieking. It has seemed to pass as of now--- which is good because it was getting kind of loud around here!
