Random Ramblings...

Since this blog is what turns into our family journal, I wanted to record a few things before they're forgotten. Kylie and Brinley had their second day of preschool today and while Brinley was napping I asked Kylie if she made any new friends at school today. Kylie responded... "you know who's my favorite?" "Who?" I ask.... "Brinley". Wow! I couldn't have heard anything better than that! She said that they sat by each other at circle time. It's so nice they they really enjoy each other. A similar thing happened while we were in Utah a couple weeks ago. Brooke asked Kylie who her best friend was. She replied that she didn't know. Brooke said, "Well who do you like to play with?" Kylie turned around and pointed to Brinley.
A few things about our Parker man...
He's very active and climbing/attacking everything. He LOVES blueberries! He ate them all summer and now eats them frozen. Straight from the freezer (might help his teething). He can eat an entire bowl full in under 3 minutes. His diet consists of mostly fruit (he can eat a whole pear in about 1 minute) cheerios and my homemade bread. That's about it. I can't get him to try new things. I'm sure he'd love corn on the cob but I can't get him to even try it. Scrambled eggs? Nope! He won't try things. Another different thing about this kid is that he won't let us put anything in his mouth. We have to hand food to him and he'll feed himself. He will eat cereal from a spoon, meaning we can spoon feed him, but we can't put anything else straight in his mouth.
Just an update on life with our little ones!

Sunflower pictures!!

Brooke took some amazing pictures of the kids when we were in Utah. Check them out on her photography blog at:

I love them! I'm not sure how she posted them because when I try to steal them for our blog it says the resolution is too big. At least you can check out her other great pictures while you're there!
