Parker is 6!

How in the world is my baby 6?!

Parker is a combination of being "all boy" and "a little brother to two sisters".  He loves running, playing sports (especially baseball), Atlanta Braves, watching football, and sometimes his temper flares pretty quickly.  On the flip side, he loves to "snuggle" with me on the couch, he sleeps with a Cabbage Patch Kid doll every night (hehehe, I'll make sure he doesn't forget this one!), and he follows in his sister's footsteps with some of the games they play, YouTube slime making people they watch, etc.  Parker is really good with numbers, I'm wondering if he'll be my math whiz when he gets older.  He hasn't really shown an interest in reading until recently.  But numbers- he loves them.  He loves to look up baseball teams on my phone and write down two names and then play a pretend game of baseball with pencils and little balls in his room, and write the score down.

All of his scores written down.

He is so funny and smart and sweet, with a side of being able to aggravate his sisters really well.  I'm so thankful that God put this little boy in my life. :)

Parker's birthday was last Thursday- he wraps up our 4 September birthdays in the family.  We opened his presents the night before his birthday, since we have soccer until late on Thursday nights.


A card and check from Aunt Katherine.


Baseball pants!  He was stoked!

He's been eyeing these sweet tarts at Five Below for months. 

He's been wanting a "real bat"- he was so excited!


On Thursday, he woke up to his decorated room, and we got to snap some pictures before school.




Stephen and I went to his class and brought cupcakes and little goodies for his classmates.  They went outside to eat the cupcakes, and the kiddos sang happy birthday to him out there.

His birthday announcement on his school sign.




What a great day celebrating my little man!
