Ever since Parker hit the age of ONE, he has been growing, learning and changing so much. He is really starting to interact with us and the job of being his mommy, while super busy, is absolutely the most rewarding job in the whole world. He is finally signing "more", "milk", "water" and "all-done" without any problem!! I tried to start teaching him how to sign when he was six months old and it is just the most amazing thing to see him finally get it. He can say "dada", "mama", bye", "hi", "bath", "dog", and his favorite..."no"! Of course, these words are all said in his own precious little Parker dialect, but he says them nonetheless! He literally talks ALL the time and primarily sounds as though he is from Slovakia, but looks at me as if I should be understanding every word he says. He still loves to climb, and his latest obsession is to climb and then stand up on top of the coffee table. He likes to dance (especially when he hears the "Hot Dog Song" from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse) and his best move seems to be some sort of a back and forth elbow combo that is beyond precious. He can "point to mommy", find his head/tongue/ear/belly button, and one of my favorites--he will reach up, grab our hand and take us to where/what he wants. (usually its to the back door to go outside!) Truly, I am blown away by how much he understands and how much he is doing...Parker is definitely not a baby anymore! I think that out of every change he has made and every milestone he has hit, my very favorite is that he now gives the best, sweetest, most adorable little kisses in the whole world! Complete with the "mmmm-wah" sound and all. It just couldn't possibly melt your heart more than that! Here are a few pics from the past couple of weeks....summer has been busy, busy!
