Blessing day

Parker was blessed on September 6th, 2009 by his daddy Tim. It was a great blessing, Tim did a wonderful job.

We thought it would be cool for Parker to wear Tim's blessing outfit that was kept in such good condition, but strangely enough a 10 pound baby Tim doesn't fit in the same clothes as 6 pound baby Parker. We even took the outfit in, but it was just too huge. As you can see Parker didin't think much of wearing daddy's big clothes!

We had lots of family come to support us and Parker on this day. This picture is of the moms; Teresa Fugate, me, Parker, and Carla Olsen

This is some of the Priesthood men that stood in the circle; Grandpa Ralph (Fugate) Barry Olsen, Tim Olsen, Parker, Richard Fugate, Grandpa Best.

It turned out to be a great day!

cant upload!

So the last several times I have tried to post something, blogger wont let me upload any pictures. Has anybody else come accross this annoying feature? It been doing that for a few weeks.

First temple outing

Tim, Parker and I had an outing to Temple Square on Sunday. The weather felt nice with an overcast sky and a warm breeze making it great to be outside walking around. Rain started coming down about an hour into our outing. Parker had his first trip to the temple as well as being in his first official rain storm. He thought it was great long enough to take a picture and then he had had enough!

swimming, marshmallows, and fire oh my!

Brooklyn meet Parker, Parker meet Brooklyn...Saturday night we went to our friends house for Carne Asada and a game of scum-very fun night by the way...one year old Brooklyn and 6 week old Parker are pretty much going to get married some day, I mean look at them eyeing each other!

Mariah had all the girls and our husbands/boyfriends and kids over for a pool party and BBQ, so of course we had to take our usual group picture. My eyes look funny but all the other girls look good so I had to post this one. Maybe this will be the first annual of many?!? Either way, it was fun and always great to see the gals.

Look at my little baby all grown up and going swimming! Parker is a little guy and being a little guy he only fits in Carter's brand newborn clothes (I guess they run small) so that seriously limits his wardrobe. He had a very cute tiny swimsuit but of course it was humongous so since he had to dress the part for the pool party I took out my sewing machine and took in 1 1/2 inches from the sides! I might by biased but I think Parker is one cute boy.

Happy Birthday

I am not sure if I have ever taken a birthday picture with the cake and candles-you know the traditional shot, so August 13 I decided it was time. Tim celebrated his 28th birthday with one candle and some yummy razzleberry pie. We went to Litza's Pizza for dinner with some of our friends, one of Tim's favorite restaurants. This was our first time taking Parker to a restaurant and luckily he didn't bring ALL the attention to our table. He did get hungry just as our food came so unless one of us had 3 hands we couldn't eat. Thank you to Chelsea for taking over the feeding position so both Tim and I could eat to our hearts content!

Wow! Raise your hand if you are tired

Being a mom is so great, but geez nobody told me i'd be so tired! kidding. So our little Parker loves to sleep, but only when he is being held. The second we lay him down he wakes right up, it makes for some good snuggles, but snuggling at night is not my choice time! So I have gone through the possible reasons and I have decided that maybe its because his bed drowns his little 6 lb body...

All lack of sleep aside, he sure is a cute fella.

My two loves being handsome together!
