So Big! Loving his Bumbo...

Don't you love his cute scarlet & gray outfit!?! We had this outfit in the closet & had to get it on him before it was too small. He is quickly growing out of the Carter's 3 month sleepers. Side-note: I hate the sizing differences between stores! Just like for adults, every store is different! But I can try stuff on, it's a little hard to try things on a baby (and not get slobber on it)! Anyway, he is smiling, laughing and wanting to sit up. We are loving every minute!


Ray noticed that Parker kept trying to sit up while we were holding him so he busted out the Bumbo! Parker loves his new little place to sit and watch the big screen TV! We put him against the couch (like the pic above) so if his head leans back he has more support. He actually does really well. His personality comes out more and more each week.

Our alternative work schedule has been working out great. We seem to have a schedule down and Parker loves spending time with mommy and daddy. Last week was my birthday so the Hix Family watched Parker so Ray and I could go to dinner. We ended up going to Smokeybones and it was so nice to have some alone time. Parker enjoyed his time with the Hix family. Keegan was talking to Parker and making him laugh. Carter doesn't really know what to think of Parker but is very excited to spend the summer with him.

We are so lucky to be surrounded with such supportive family and friends! It really does take a village to raise a baby. Thank you for being part of our "village"! :)

14 weeks Baby = lemon

Well, the 14th week is upon us. My belly is growing and people are starting to notice. Ray is especially infatuated with my belly getting so hard. At first it was a little soft but then one day it was hard as a rock. Very weird feeling!

BabyCenter.com says that the baby is as big as a lemon this week. I love how they compare everything to fruit. Even funnier, the title of the slide show is called "Poppy seed to pumpkin: How big is your baby?" Doesn't pushing out a pumpkin sound like FUN!
Below are some pics I took of my belly. I will try and sport the same type of tank top so that you can watch me grow! :) Remember, I wasn't a twig to begin with but my belly didn't look like this 14 weeks ago!!

Ray and I have decided that we are a little overwhelmed with all of the items we are going to need for this new baby. We are taking things very slowly and have made Friday nights dinner and shopping nights. The last two weeks we have stopped at Babies R Us and Target. We have just been looking around to see what we might like. Don't worry we aren't buying we are just looking! :) Once we find out the sex of the baby many more decisions can be made. Well, here is to another great week and hope everyone is doing well.

Congrats to Phil & Katie! We just found out that they are excepting their first baby two days before we are! The babies can be poker partners! :)
