My daily prayer...

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything in prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. Philippians 4:6

Brunch with Friends...

We had our best friends over for brunch after church this past sunday. It was so much fun! Their kids LOVE Julian! So here are a few pictures from our day!

This would have been so adorable...if it wasn't so blurry! Owen is 3
Here is Brenna, Molly, Aunt Katie and Julian... he looks sad...but he had a great day!
Molly looks adorable here with Julian...look how big he is in relation to her! She is 5...I had to laugh!!
Here is the gang...all playing together! They played so great! We had such a wonderful time. Owen calls Julian "baby Julian" "Where's baby Julian" he said when he was napping...too cute...they are only about 2 years apart so in 4 years it won't matter the age!
It was a really nice weekend...spent the days home with Jeff and Julian. This week at work I am super busy with the spring market in full motion! Mom is taking him over night for me tonight, so I can get in the office early! I worked yesterday, Jeff had off, then we went to Springviller for our monthly trip to Walmart Super Store. We picked up Yogurt for Julian and he LOVES IT! So glad we did so. Trying to get my ducks in a row for the weekend...play date on Friday and Saturday...home Sunday. Hope all is well!

Happy Birthday Papa...

Can you feel the love?
Ok, so I am a day late...but Happy Birthday Papa! It was a special day...yet kinda sad too! My brother is still in Iraq, it was my father's first birthday as a grandfather and Julian rolled over right in front of us! I think we all had tears in our eyes! So here are a bunch of photos from our weekend.


I love this photo!

He looks sad, but he wasn't.



This was taken after he rolled over and we wanted to see if he would roll over again...you can see his rosey cheeks and some drull too!

This was Saturday night after dinner with our friend's Susan and Pete and their son, Devon...we went to Pizzeria Uno's...we had a great time...so much so we are doing it once a month! The boys are 2 months apart...they are so cute together. boys pJeff and Pete had so much to talk about while Susan and I talked mother talk and the boys played.

When we came home our dear friends Dave and Peggy were across the street from our house, so they stopped by and Dave was playing with Julian...it is really sweet!

Busy weekend...

We had a busy weekend! We had Life Links on Friday, Saturday we stayed home, Nana and Papa came by to see us...it had been 2 days since they had seen him...2 days too long! Jeff and I played games at night and on Sunday we had Josh's brithday party...he is going to be one this week! We had a great time! I am going to post a few pictures. Alot has happened since he turned 8 months. He can sit up all by himself for a long time..of course I timed it...45 mins! We found him face down in the crib...yes he rolled over! I thought Jeff was going to have a heart attack when he went in to check him. After he checked him, he came in and said "you have to see him...but don't be scared, he is fine!" Julian is babbling like there is no tomorrow.
This is a picture of Eugene and him having a staring contest...I have to say Julian was the winner this time!

And the winner is...Julian Parker!!!

Julian with daddy, Jake and Olivia are on the mat too!

Having fun at Rollie Pollie with our friends!!! (mommy can't wait for the bib wearing to stop!!!)

8 months!!!

As if to say...I know I am cute...just look at me!
They are to stay on all the time...not with these feet!
Sitting up, by himself...with protection...he loves this toy!

Well my baby is 8 motnhs old! (and a day) I had to work yesterday and I was too tired to post last night. So I will today! I am working from home, mom took him over night for me so I could do some things around the house today...Spring Cleaning and working at the same time...hard to do! He is sitting on his own now. There are endless possibilities for him now! I am happy and sad at the same time. I know you all know how I feel. He looks so cute when he sits there by himself...so proud! Love it! Just wanted to share my joy with all of you! Hugs

Beautiful Sunshine!



Pictures 1 and 2: Ok...so I have a girlfriend from high school who has 3 boys and she had a garage sale 3 summers ago and it rained, so she gave me everything that was left...7 bags full of baby boy clothes! So I have been using some of the clothes...today I wen through the 12-18 month box...so there was this hat in there...he loves his hats...so we put it on him and we started to read the paper...when I looked up...that is what I saw! We were cracking up! It was so funny!
Picture 3: Well what another fantastic day we are having here in WNY! It is about 63 degrees and all sun! So, since I work from home on Monday's, when Julian got up from his nap, we took a long walk...almost an hour. Not sure if you can see them or not, but I got Julian those shoes that are all the rage...Robeeze...I LOVE THEM!!! I bought 2 different kinds...if you don't have them, find them...they are great!!!We saw a neighbor who we had not seen since the fall, so that was fun, catching up on our adventures! He is sitting up on his own, without falling over...it is a big day for us! He has been sitting on his own, but would flop over or throw himself back...not today...he sat there for 5 minutes! Yes I timed it! I know I am sick! So I am getting the hang of working from home...finally, it has only taken 4 months to figure it out! Today was a great day...I got alot done and ended up saving a family almost $200 a month on their mortgage, by refinancing their current one! I love when I can help someone out! Well, Daddy is home and when Jules wakes up we are going out for a bit...enjoy the weather!!!

We are alive!

Thanks to everyone who has checked in with us...we are fine! Busy week! So here is the latest. Julian can take the little puffs and put them in his mouth...He also has been sitting up on his own on our bed than then flops over...well today at church I gave him to Laura and right before we entered to worship, I forgot to tell her something so I went in and there he was...sitting all by himself...I think I let out a gasp...poor Laura said "is this ok?" I said yes, I just had not done that yet. And when I did he would flop over, so I was waiting till he could sit a little while longer by himself on the bed, before I tried the floor again...he bonked his head a few times. SO now he is still by himself. We bought a new car seat, so he is in that...wow...so much is happening all at once! He is going to be 8 months on Tuesday... I can hardly stand it! But that is what happens...they grow up...boo hoo!!! I will post some pictures later today!
