the biggest news, parker took his very first step on, tuesday, July 11th, a little over 14 months. the three of us were in preston's room reading a book, when he stood up, and hesitantly took a few steps towards us before falling down. i didn't have my phone on me! he did it again with some encouragement. then jack came home and he grabbed my phone, but parker was done and didn't do it for daddy that night.
over the next few days, he would continue to take a few steps at a time, always falling down after just a few and laughing, he thought it was so funny. i am a little late on this entry, so at a little over 15 months, parker was walking pretty confidently. it is the cutest watching him waddling along, being his own little person.
he is definitely saying dada, he's giving and blowing kisses, he is building towers with blocks and toilet papers, he started playing with the little kids big legos, he's been sitting at the little kiddie table with preston on most mornings and eating his breakfast on his own. parker started taking swim lessons in late July, and he is trying to blow bubbles in the water. he can go under the water, and doesn't mind water on his face.
he is saying words like balloon, no, and being the cutest little guy. i can't give him enough kisses, just such a cute age. he likes to pick up trash for the most part and throw it away, he likes to pick things up and put away in a basket. he is into playing with pots and pans and cooking utensils, it keeps him pretty occupied while i am busy in the kitchen.
he's more into playing these days, so he's not eating as much. it's a bit disappointing, i do love watching him eat. he eats a bit and is ready to get out and about. so i am feeding him as he's on the move these days, i do not enjoy this part, especially with 2 kids being like this. can't wait for it to be over, and for another grown spurt to hit!
