Uncle Tim....6 months old....Valentine's Day....and THE bug

Sorry this might be a long post, but I definitely wanted to get everything in from the last month (Sorry we've been MIA!)

Tim came for a visit in early February -- Sutton was very happy to see her uncle & we all enjoyed his company; LOVE family time....

Comfy hanging out with Uncle Tim!

Brothers in Hoodies. $$.


Maddie is getting closer & closer with Sutton!





And Sutton turned 6 months old on February 13th -- Katie & Garrett helped us celebrate while Tim was in town :) Sutton was thrilled with the attention & with the new outfit/blocks set from her Uncle Garrett & Aunt Katie....but wanted to grab her candle on the cupcake :) Check out the side of her head in the picture of Sutton in Katie's lap -- the head is getting better!!
They probably could have gotten her an empty bag with tissue paper. HA!

See? :)

Wow, BLOCKS!

Check out my new hot pink outfit! It's a hoodie too!

The girl knows what she wants -- cupcake!! or is it fire? :)


HAPPY SIX MONTH BIRTHDAY, SUTTON CLAIRE!!!!
We all love you....

Already chomping on the new blocks...hanging with Aunt Katie!

Uncle Garrett -- Thanks for my presents!!! Hope to see you soon:)




Valentine's Day with our sweet girl...She got her Daddy a card & She made her Mom one too. So sweet!! Eric & I got takeout & just celebrated loving this family so much. Of course, Sutton had a new outfit for school with hearts all over it :) 





And lastly -- I just wanted to tell a story. So, the stomach bug has made it's way into the Parker home. It started with Sutton on Thursday night/Friday of last week(-end)...and kept us home from the mountains, where we'd planned to go with friends....This week, it claimed Eric for a few days & I spent some time in the guest room to avoid it :) Clearly I have had my fair share of doing loads of laundry on "hot"....sanitizing the house again....and cleaning up poop/vomit -- but apparently I hadn't had enough.
On Tuesday night this week -- the day the bug got Eric (picture him unable to move off the bed or couch) -- I was bathing Sutton before bed when I saw the look on her face. I thought -- please no, this can't be happening. Seconds later, she made the same face & Poop was EVERYWHERE in the tub & all over her....I had to quickly get her out, clean the tub, re-clean her, etc etc....
and as soon as I put her to bed, I walked downstairs to figure out what soup I was going to get Eric to try & I walk into Maddie's poop. REALLY!? So, as I like to say, this week it just feels like I've been pooped on.
TGIF ya'll!!!!!
What a week :)


Keep washing your hands -- from our home to yours.
XOXO

A visit to see Pop & Patsy!

Hello everyone! I hope this finds you all staying warm with this bout of winter chill....Looks like the groundhog was correct after all....but we're not letting it slow us down!

We made a road trip in January to see Pop & Patsy (Nan) & their new home in Richmond...It was a very quick trip :( but we all had a wonderful time...Sutton was wonderful in the car for the 5 hr drive, but didn't sleep too well in the pack n play...Princess is clearly used to a much thicker mattress :) spoiled already!

Sutton's 6 month birthday is tomorrow -- I cannot believe how fast the time has gone. I also cannot believe there was ever a time where she wasn't in our lives. Kind of strange :) Tim, Eric's brother, is here this weekend to help us celebrate with Sutton. She loves having her uncle here. I will post pics of his visit & the bday later this week.

We are off to the mountains next weekend with a large group of my sorority sisters, their husbands/boyfriends & a few other babies...Let's hope Miss Sutton does a little better in the pack n play there or it could be a long weekend. We're looking forward to the fun & we'll also get to see Meg, our niece, for lunch! 

That's all for now. Enjoy the pics & check back soon!!
xoxo
