Parker Reid

Look at this punkin one day this week after his nap (that would explain the half awake/scowl look and the yawns).  He. Is. A. Doll. 

I feel like he's grown up so much just since we've been in Korea these last three months.  I'm pretty sure he gains weight in the middle of the night because he feels heavier than he did the day before nearly every single morning.  He's now 19 months old and growing like a weed.  Of course there is no way to know for sure until the little suckers actually break through the gums, but I'm almost positive he's cutting his molars right now.  I can only hope that he cuts all four at the same time to just get it over with, because these molars were the worst teething for Connar and seem to be the same for Parker if today is any indication of how this round of teething will go.  He's a strong little guy and Mommy has Tylenol & Motrin to help, so just pray for him that it's not too bad.

Back to these pictures....  Check out how big he looks just relaxing in his chair.  The way he clasps his hands, the way he puts his hands behind his head, and the way he sits with his feet pulled up underneath him all remind me of his big brother, Connar.  It's only a matter of time before he'll be just as big as his live-in best friend. 

I'm so lucky to be his mommy.  :)
