Parker

I have a lot of random pictures of the kids, so I wanted to do a post about each of them individually. I'm going to start with Parker, since he gets so overlooked. I don't know if it's because he's a boy, or the middle child, or because he's just a mellow kid, but I really do feel that Parker gets overlooked by the world. But I absolutely adore him. He is such a sweet boy, so low-maintenance and so caring.

Here are some of the things we've been loving about Parker lately:
*He always says, "Me love you big much!" Yesterday I asked him why he loved me "big much." He was very serious and told me, "Cuz I not love you tiny much!"
*Everyone is his "best friend," especially Kenley. At least once a day Parker tells her she is his best friend, and she squeals with joy and they hug. It is so cute.
*He loves to be in pictures - almost every set of pictures on my camera ends with one of him with his cute little squinty-eyed grin.

*He sleeps in much later than the girls. It's not at all unusual for Parker to still be sleeping at 8:30 when the girls have been up for an hour or two already.
*He has a very caring and giving personality. He will be the first to go get you a blanket, to split his own treat in half and give you some, to go put your shoes away just to be sweet, etc.
*He loves being clean, taking baths, and brushing his teeth. He gets very sad if someone else gets a bath and he doesn't.
*He adores his daddy and is missing him a lot lately with all the hours James has been working.
