Parker's got skills...

I am constantly surprised at how quickly Parker is learning new things.  I feel like I don't even get a chance to get used to what he learned last week, and then he is on to learning something new!  My baby is growing so fast! 

The past 2 weeks Parker has majorly improved in his ability to pull himself up on furniture and stand up holding on to something.  He loves to stand on the armchair in the living room and peek over the back.  He also has started holding on to our hands and walking around.  It is so funny because he over exaggerates every step...lifting his legs much higher than necessary...almost like he's marching!  (9 1/2 months)

Other things Parker has been up to...

Parker has grown more curious with the back slider door.  He enjoys pounding on the window and looking outside at squirrels.  There are constantly hand prints all over the window, but I never clean it because I think they are so cute!  (9 months)

Parker is climbing stairs!  We don't have any stairs at our house to practice on, but when we go to Grandpa and Grandma Nagelkirk's house he gets some practice.  He climbed the whole set of stairs last week! (9 1/2 months)

He loves to hit balls around the house.  He will literally hit the ball throughout the whole house almost like he is dribbling a soccer ball. (9 months)

We are hoping some new teeth are on their way soon because Parker has been a little out of character lately...waking up crying in the middle of the night, refusing to eat a bottle at times and crying hysterically when I put him down for a nap.  I miss my Parker.  I am hoping some teeth pop through soon so he can feel better quickly.  In the meantime he chews on a wooden spoon to help ease the pain.  (9 1/2 months)

Parker's baseball bat and Xylophone stick are the toys of choice lately.  Parker likes to crawl around with them, and hear the noises they make when hitting the wood floor...future drummer?!
