Parker's Bday

It is Parker's birthday today. We celebrated in style even though he is having a party in a few weeks with his pal Mac. Here are the highlights of our adventure.

Michael took the morning off and I got a sitter for the gals. We first headed off to breakfast, something we used to do often but haven't done in ages. Then we made our way to the Jumpy, Jumpy place.

Parker just loves this place.



Mom and Parker go down the slide.



Dad sits in the ball pit.



Then we came home, dad went to work and everyone (yes everyone) got naps.

When we awoke, the gals ate and then played, while Parker played with his new favorite thing...the Super Marble Run, a gift from the Marcuses.






A couple hours later, dad came home and we opened the rest of the presents.

First was an activity table from Grammy and Ginny. Here he is opening it and then enjoying it while reading, Uncle David's gift, a great book by the same author/illustrator as the Fly book.




Then Dad let him open some presents form us.

A tshirt of Zonk the turtle (Parker has some Zonk paintings in his room.)



Another book...Good night Moon, in Spanish. Buenos Noches Luna. (He sang an entire song in spanish the other day.)




And then finally, a complete puppet show. With stage and 6 fabulous puppets. He was a bit scared of them, but I'm guessing he will come around.





Then some dinner and some birthday pie. (See next blog from Dad for more on the pie.)

Then baths for all the kids, some nursing, some reading, some singing and bedtime.

Just in time for mom and dad to watch Survivor.

Happy Birthday Parker!
