Highlights from the week...pics from my phone

This moment: from our day...we have 3 clean doggies and thanks to
these two awesome kiddos, those doggies have clean collars!

Here's one of those clean wooley boogers!  She obviously needs a hair cut but at
least she's clean!



These pictures are all out of order so I'm just gonna go with it!  This was from one of our days
at the park last week.  We had a picnic and then they played for a while.  Ella met a new little
friend so they played most of the time.

Love this picture.


This sweet pic was from the night we went to Cuz/Uncle
Dubby and Beth's for their housewarming party.
Parker was in the sling about to fall asleep.


From another day this week at another park.  You could say we frequented
lots of parks this week! :-)

We had 2 house showings on Thursday and boy were these two tired of running
around while we had to be out of the house.  Love them!

More park play

Have I told you lately how much I LOVE
our Ella Bear?  Attitude and all!

She has actually been better this week and that's
probably because we started a new routine at night getting her
and Parker to bed a little earlier.

Seems like she's been working things out a little
more with Parker instead of always taking things from him or
hitting him.  This still happens but just not as much.

Every morning, she asks me, "Will you please go get me
a really pretty dress or skirt and tights?"
This girl loves her skirts, dresses and tights!

Parker and Ella both sing all day long...
Parker sings happy birthday at least 3 times a day and
You are my sunshine.
Ella sings We wish you a Merrry Christmas and
Rudolf the red nosed rain deer.

Ella usually asks me in the morning,
"Where are we going today, Mommy?"
When I tell her that we are staying home today, she
says, "But I want to go see (insert Grandma, Granny,
Sofia, Aunt Jojo,  Ethan, etc)
I want to go to The Bake Shoppe, Season's Harvest,
Chick-fil-A!  If it's not to someone's house, it's definitely
somewhere to eat.

Ella and Parker have been playing "house" lately
where they build a fort, make meals in their kitchen
and then they get dressed up and "go to a wedding."
Ella plays the "Mommy" and says, "Parker dear...
honey or sweetie..."  so funny listening to them!

I over heard Ella telling Parker,
"You can't dress up like a princess anymore,
only a prince and you have to put some clothes on and jewelry!" lol


and yet again, more park play and Parker
going down the really fast slide!


This boy LOVES climbing rock walls!

A couple of updates on Peanut...

Doing great with potty training!
He has an occasional accident
and those are usually when he is
outside playing.
But other than that he has
been in big boy underware for
the past 3 weeks and diapers only at night.
When he goes #2, he says, Mommy, I went
POOP...not poopoo but Poop!  lol

He's had more energy than ever and dances and
is so super silly all the time.
I see more of this boy's bootie than
anything!  He just loves being naked or at least without
pants.  He tell me, "I want to be naked bootie, mommy!"

He got a big boy haircut by Daddy and looks so much like a
little boy and not so much like my little baby anymore :-(  



Parker is scared to go across this bridge...can you tell by the way he is leaning over...lol

We tried our hand at a grain/wheat free bread to use for sandwiches.
It turned out great except that it had a really strong ammonia smell!
I messaged the author of the recipe book we got this particular recipe
from and he said that it was called baker's ammonia.  He told me how to
avoid it so we'll be trying this again soon.


More park pics.  Not sure why the pics
are so all spread out.  It's way to hard to move all of them though!

At Dubby and Beth's party with Aunt Jojo.

This boy was ready for some Houston Texans football...
too bad they lost!  Already looking forward to next season
though...is it August yet? ;-)  Oh and thanks Grandma
and Pawpaw for the awesome Texans sweatshirt!


Our two little snuggle bugs in their critter throws
that Granny & Poppa got them.

hehehe  love them!  Anytime anyone assumes the position Ella is in, Parker
jumps right on!

Love this boy and his sayings!  He came running in
the living room after taking a bath with Ella
and asked me to tie his towel on him like superman,
so I did.  Then he asked me to put the butterfly wings
on him, so I did.  Then he ran back in with his arms out and said,
"I'm butterfly superman!"  LOL
The joys of having an older sister!

Have a great weekend and God Bless!
