Our Christmas

I know it's late but I figure better late than never. Our Christmas was wonderful this year! We got to spend time with both of our families and it was so much fun this year with now 6 month old Parker! Of course he didn't really know what was going on, but he knew that he was having fun! Parker got some awesome toys and outfits, his favorite I think would be his sit to stand toy. I got a SEWING MACHINE!, and fishing gear (fact that most people don't know about me: I love to fish! No, I don't eat the fish I let them go (kinda mean-I know) but the thrill of catching a fish is incredible and I love to be in the great outdoors), and some Ipod touch accessories. Darrin got some video games for the xbox360 he was wanting, frisbee golf discs, new xbox controller and Dashboard Confessionals tickets.

We had such a great time with family and I'm sad that it's all over with. But I'm SO excited for the new year as well! With the new year for me came a NEW CALLING. I used to be a primary teacher for the 10-12 year olds for the past year and a half. Now I am the Mid-Week Committee Coordinator/Chair-basically the Enrichment Night Coordinator for those that don't know the new term "Mid-Week". I'm REALLY excited about my new calling and I hope I can plan some great activities with my team!

Parker had his 6 month appointment after Christmas and I wanted to share his stats:

Height: 97th Percentile!!
Weight: 18 pounds! 75th Percentile!!

We love our little boy SO much it's unbelievable and we're excited to watch him grow through the next year! Here are some pictures from the holidays:
