*Way back in December Parker and I tagged along with Keith and his co-workers to Opryland. We went to ICE. It was my first time to go and I was so excited to take Parker. Turns out, Parker hated it. I think a lot of it had to do with the fact that it was beyond freezing and P was so bundled up he looked like Ralphie from A Christmas Story. Literally. Needless to say, a meltdown ensued and P and I skipped out on dinner much to the relief of the FTI gang I'm sure.
What melts me every time is when he whispers "I love you" every night before bed.
*Speaking of food, he has been going through a growth spurt lately. The boy is a garbage disposal. He's regularly eating all 3 meals, his normal snacks (fruit, cheese, crackers, cheerios, etc.), plus a post nap "snack" of an entire PB&J. *We went to the mall the other day and rode the escalator for the first time. As we approached P got excited. He sat down at the top and started to scoot towards the stairs. It took me a second to figure out what he was doing, but I realized that he thought it was a slide!
*He loves to play Hide and Seek with Daddy. He's a terrible hider (he can't stay put!), but a great seeker.
*He will randomly come up to me, put his arms so tightly around my neck and give me the biggest squeeze and won't let go. If I kiss his neck he'll break into a fit of laughter and squeeze harder.
*He has a new "game" where he'll stand on my feet and I'll walk around. It's a great work out for me!
*My work schedule got switched around so I was able to spend Valentine's Day with P. We went to the Lane Motor Museum. He had a blast playing with the cars (and running up and down the ramp) in the kids area and just walking around looking at everything.
