Updates around the Parker household.

Good morning!

Lots to report around here!
We are all doing well -- happy & healthy...and have your prayers/support to thank for that!

I'm now 25+ weeks pregnant with these two baby boy bundles. I'm slowing down in all honesty, not my favorite thing to admit, as the weight continues to pile on & it gets harder to move in general -- but really am feel great all things considered!
We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of our friends too with all kinds of hand me downs -- boat loads of clothes, mattresses, swings, playmats, moses baskets, crib sheets, you name it! Eric & I started putting their room together & it is all feeling a little more "real".
I will post pics of the nursery once we get the dresser built this week :)

I think I was 17 1/2 weeks here?

21 weeks here...

almost 24 weeks

almost 25 weeks



Sutton is using the potty at school & at home -- she is doing an AMAZING job....Even her teachers took the time to write us a note about how she is the model student & has grasped potty training so fast. We could not be more proud of her!


Pop & Patsy got married!!!!!!!! In a gorgeous ceremony & perfect reception under the stars of Richmond in September.....The weather couldn't have been better & Patsy thought of everything. We are SO so happy she is now officially part of the family -- though it's been unofficial for while :) They are now back from their extensive honeymoon to Europe (mostly Italy) and we are looking forward to seeing them & hearing stories at Thanksgiving.

Gorgeous wedding flowers & decor!

Eric's new job @ New Dominion Bank is going well....2 months in! He works a lot, drives more than he wants, but is busy & liking his new role as well as the people he works with!

Oh yeah -- we went to the beach for 5 days @ the end of Sept....we had a blast in Wild Dunes & so did Sutton!




Mom, Annie & I had a girls weekend at Mom/Dave's new place in Naples -- it was a quick 48 hours, but an amazing trip...beautiful views/weather, lots of fun laughs, and delicious seafood!
We bought matching clearance hats @ Stein mart on the first night after dinner :)

2nd night before dinner

Eric took SC to a pumpkin farm while I was gone - she had a blast!


More of the pumpkin farm/patch the following weekend when I took her by myself -- & she rode a pony!
Feeding the little goats

Petting the new puppies (her fav)

Riding on a pony -- she doesn't look happy here, but she LOVED it!!! She was a natural :)



More family fun & photos ---

That's about all from here for now -- Stand by! We have another ultrasound tomorrow to see how these boys are growing & we'll be sure to check in :) Take care -- Love to you all.
