Happy Birthday Parker!!!!



Parker is one! What a great year it has been! I can hardly believe a year has passed and so many memories are behind us. We had a great birthday week, complete with two parties- one for family and one for friends. There was a polar bear theme and many of our gifts were polar bear themed as well! Parker enjoyed all the things a little boy should with his first birthday- the people, the food and the singing! He dances to any song he hears, including Happy Birthday.

And the gifts! Parker was spoiled rotten by friends and family alike. His favorite toys were his little people farm from his cousins (he loves animals), several musical instruments (comeplete with maracas, which he LOVES), a HUGE polar bear pillow pet (bigger than Parker and maybe heavier too!) and singamajigs. What's a sinamajig you ask? This adorable stuffed creature that sings. If you have not seem a singamajig yet, you should check them out--- they are a better adult toy than they are a kids toy!

Thank you to all friends and family who read the blog. Parker loves you.

And now we await yet another exciting milestone--- Parker's 2nd Christmas!!! Parker can hardly wait for his Nana (and Santa!) to get here!

Happy Holidays!


Well, the holiday season is officially here!! We spent a great Thanksgiving in Liverpool with Nana and plan to spend Christmas here in Saratoga. Parker has already been tree decorating, to the classic Saratoga Victorian Streetwalk and have been shopping, wrapping and listening to Christmas music non-stop! Parker is sure to have a very happy second Christmas.

But first....he must turn one! First birthday pictures to come!
