Apple Orchard and a Parker Pumpkin Patch!

A goat sniffing Parker. We ripped poor Parker from sleeping in his warm stroller to take pics, he was a good sport!

Looking cute as ever in a pumpkin patch!

Our good friends Jade and Ginger had previously set up this ideal photo shot for their three little pumpkins and let us borrow the costume, set and camera to capture the only Halloween that Parker will fit in a pumpkin. I love it!

First Pair of Jeans

Parker's first pair of jeans! He dressed up to go shopping at the mall.

Doesn't Brett looked rugged in his beard? I think its a good look for him!
The cutest view!

Newborn Photos

Having a photographer in the family is GREAT! We are lucky enough to have two! In Utah, my sister in law, Ellen, was always willing to take photos for us. And now that we are in Minnesota, Brett's cousin's wife (got that?), Kim, is a photographer with her own buisness. She offered a free sitting and picture to me for my baby shower and I was so excited! 10 days after Parker was born we headed down and did a little photo shoot. Parker was not as cooperative as we wanted but Kim was extra patient and spent a lot of time waiting to get the shots we wanted. Kim is very fun and easy to work with. Check her out at krussellphotos.blogspot.com She has a great deal going on right now for Christmas pics!

Melt my Heart

Parker started smiling a couple weeks ago! Truly nothing better. He is looking JUST like his daddy now so now I need to add baby boo to his long list of nicknames. Other nicknames include; Mr. Floofloodoo, Mr. Man, and Parker Roo. He also started reaching for toys several weeks ago.
