September flew by, I didn't even realize it was past the 25th! We have been keeping busy...training, and planning for our up coming trips and parties! I should have some exciting family updates soon! No new baby so don't get too excited!
Parker is 1 month shy of turning 2! He has really grown in the last month. He is so smart, I can't keep up with him. When I say smart he is also bad smart, he is a little pill. I think he will be quite the trouble maker later on in life. He is full of adventure, and it scares me!
He talks a ton now, lots of full sentences. I love hearing his sweet little voice. Don't be surprised if he doesn't talk much around you though, he seems to only do it at home when he is most comfortable. Pretty common, I think.
He also loves to sing. He has surprised us several times by knowing the words to song, he just chimes in and starts singing! A few songs are, ABC's, I am a child of God, Popcorn popping on the Apricot tree, twinkle twinkle little star, BOM stories, Itsy bitsy spider,Elmo's Song, and The mouse ran up the clock. Not sure if that's even the name!

He loves to help. He insist on helping me wash the dishes and cook. I can't even go to the sink without him saying "help mama, help". or he just yells "wash or cook". I have gotten use to my un-needed help. It's kinda nice having someone to keep me company! I sure hope he likes to help as he gets older, I could really get use to it then! We even painted our bedroom and he had to help. I didn't let him paint with paint obviously, I gave him a cup of water and a foam brush. He painted the walls and his chair. I came behind him and dried everything off with a towel. He has so much fun!
We transferred him into a big boy bed earlier in the month. He wasn't sleeping very well in his crib and would always make his way into our bed at night. It felt like we had a newborn in the house again. AWFUL. We were desperate for sleep so we thought we would get him a big boy bed to see if it helped. We ended up buying him a bed and its very comfy, we thought for sure it would do the trick. I think in two weeks he sleep the whole night twice. I was nearing my breaking point...even considered putting a for sale ad on craigslist! jk!!! We have accepted that we have a vampire child who doesn't like to sleep, only he is one of a kind. This type of vampire child doesn't like to sleep day or night. I think the excitement of having a new bed is wearing off because he is sleeping much better now and longer at night. either that or lack of sleep finally caught up to him!

Well stay tuned for more updates, I am going to try to stay up to date but with our crazy lives it may be hard to do.
Parker loves Date night co-op night, he gets to play with all his friends!
