1, 2 buckle my shoe

Are you supposed to teach numbers or letters first? I think I may have done it backwards.

ParKer can almost count to 10 all by himself!

The only numbers he misses are 5 and 9!! He counts everything now and it is so cute! My little man is growing up faster than I want, but it is so much fun watching him.

We have been singing him the ABC's every night before bed for the past 4 months or so...but nothing seems to be sticking there. He calls every letter, "the letter M". Once I was watching Wheel of Fortune and he started shouting out all these random letters! It was so cute.

I'll try and see what videos I can catch of Parker counting. He is really good at it and it is cute....but he hates the camera and he gets a little shy when he knows someone is watching. And next time I post I'll try and put up some pics. I just got a funny video of Eli eating baby food Ham and he is gagging!

And I still haven't bought my washer and dryer yet, but I think I am going to go with the Kenmore. I looked again and I don't like the GE anymore. When we were at Sears on Thursday they had 2 sets of the Kenmore's left. If they are still there on Monday they will be like 30% off and so I am taking my chances. If they aren't there it obviously wasn't meant to be and I'll wait for the next sale.

Stumped...

I have been researching Washers and Dryers now for about 2 months. I am getting really excited cause I am finally going to have a set that actually work (hopefully). I have read so many reviews and comments that I just don't know what to do anymore. There are alot of really bad comments about almost everything. I am guessing that just means that people who are not satisfied take the extra time to tell people, and the people who are satisfied don't even go back to the site to say it cause they just really don't care (or they are busy doing laundry :) ! )

So thanks to alot of help from alot of people and their advice and all the people who listened to me even if didn't want to hear all the stress....I have narrowed it down to 2 different sets.

This is the Kenmore Elite HE3t

And this is the GE

Only it won't be in Red cause I missed that chance. I guess the customers who said they didn't want it really did want it-so because I was so stressed I missed out on a really good deal. I like to think that maybe I did someone a favor by not buying the set because then they would have had to reorder them a new set and who knows why the people wanted them....they could be really needing them. Anyways now the set I am looking at is the same model only in white and more expensive. Dang.

Well Brian is going to come home and get me and take me and the kids to Kenai to go look at some more washers. I don't know if this will help anything or make things worse. Hopefully I will just make up my mind and get things over with.

P.S. is ALOT one word or 2 (A LOT)??? My spell check thinks it is two but I know when I was in school we learned it as one.

Good Morning Parker!

It is always so fun to go into Parker's room in the morning. You never know what funny things he is going to say or what he is going to be doing in his crib. He usually wakes about between 9 and 10 (I'm know I am spoiled cause my kids sleep in). Unless we are in a hurry to get somewhere we usually just let him sit in there and play and talk until he calls for us to come get him out. Sometimes its an hour! I'm not sure if this is healthy or not, but it nice for me!
This morning I went and Parker said, "Look Mummy, CIRCLE!" He was sitting in a circle with his stuffed animals and his blankets! He is so funny. He just talks to them like he is the boss. It usually sounds just like something I say to Parker, "Sit down, K blankie?? K baby?? K?? K??" Everything ends with "K??"
On Sunday after his nap I went in to get Parker and he said, "Look Mummy, I'm feedin the baby milk!" He had his arm out of his shirt through the neck and he was trying to feed his baby milk! What a funny kid. Brian thought it was a little disturbing, but I took a picture. Blackmail. I'll post it next time I have a chance to upload some pics.
Just for journal purposes...
The other day Parker had something sticky on his finger and he went over to the baby and said something like, "Here baby! Eat it Baby! MMM, it's candy baby!" Then he tried to stick his finger in the babies mouth. Luckily I was right there cause I honestly don't know what was on his finger!
