Mia comes to Cleve

We have loved having family visit especially because every time some one comes into town, they bring the good weather with them.  Our blue background is to encourage anyone to come visit to keep the sunny weather around.

So here are some recent pics from when Mia came to visit (she brought her Huntington Beach weather with her.)  It was so fun to have her and Parker loved all the attention and gifts. (So did Ben and I, we love our new Rainbows!).  

So now that I have something on our blog I might actually send this out so I don't get harped on anymore...

Daddy and Parker after a late dinner out one night.  We have had so many visitors so Parker has no schedule anymore...

Parker loves his stroller (just like his mommy) and scoots himself down so he can reach and put his feet up while he rides.  Parker and I love it when it is warm in Cleveland so we can be outside!

Except when Mom takes too long to get out the door.

All of us in the same picture?  This never happens because usually Ben or I am taking the picture but this is pretty typical of our life: Parker is the center of attention and Ben and I are trying to make him laugh.

Parker with his beautiful and tan so-cal based Aunt Mia

Parker's "focused" face.  He is trying to copy Ben clapping

And he gets it!  He loves to clap now.

Showing off in the tub.

Just happy from so much attention...

Ok so I just saw my last post (you will see below) and well... I am new at this.  This is a perfect example of how I try to do too many things at one time and therefore don't get anything completely done but a lot of little things started.    In this case I would type something, then get distracted by an email, then add a few pics, then Parker would cry, then I would add some more, then the phone would ring and voila!..a messy post.  Not perfect but at least I am doing it..
