Let's review...

At the request of my friend Missy, I am updating my blog, not that anyone even cares anymore... Since I have not updated since September, this is another long post, just of a review of stuff that's happened in the last 4 months.

Parkie wearing daddy's shoes and doing her "funny face."
Her "funny face" is sort of a trademark in our family.
Sometimes she does it so hard she shakes.


Picking out pumpkins for Halloween.


At the pumpkin walk.


At the Venetian garden in Las Vegas.

The week before Halloween Kory and I went to Disneyland with my parents and sisters. Parkie didn't come, she got to stay in Logan with her Grandma Cyndi. Of course Kory and I stopped in Las Vegas first for a few days.


Me as a toy!
California Adventure opened the new Toy Story ride just this last summer. The line for it was always insane, but Kory and I managed to ride it FOUR times! (I also beat Kory 3 out of 4 times!) It is probably my new favorite ride!


Kory as the Mad Hatter.
He doesn't pull it off as well as Johnny Depp...


Parker in her ladybug costume.
This picture was actually staged and taken after Halloween since Kory and I were on the long drive home from California the night of trick-or-treating. Grandma Cyndi got to take Parker out and they just went to family members houses, but I'm pretty sure she really enjoyed it!


This was actually taken the night of trick-or-treating.
I'm not sure what the grumpy face was all about. I guess Halloween brings out the full range of emotions in kids. Her costume is vintage- my mom made it for me when I was a little girl.


Riding the carousel at the South Town mall.
Every year me, my mom, and sisters go on a Salt Lake shopping trip before Christmas. The South Town mall is my favorite mall- Parker loves it because of the carousel.


At our ward Christmas party.
This picture makes me want to kiss her face all over!


Christmas Eve with baby Maddie.
Baby Maddison is actually my cousin (so that makes her Parker's 2nd cousin?). Anyway, Parker is absolutely obsessed with her!!! Whenever we see her, she begs and begs to hold her and gives her kisses and says things like, "Baby so cute..." Baby Maddie was actually asleep in this picture, Parker was pretending.


Christmas morning.
Santa brought her a kitchen set and about a kajillion pieces of play food.


At Grandpa Mike's on Christmas.


My parents got her this adorable table and chairs.


Mommy and Parkie on her 2nd birthday.
Actually her b-day was on Dec. 30 and we had a family party for her on New Year's day, this picture was taken during the party.

Grandma Cyndi and Papa Jeff gave her this adorable little pink chair. I didn't know they made stuff like this for little people! Doesn't she look so cute sitting in it?


At the Utah Auto Expo.
I also had a birthday and for fun Kory and I went to the car show at the South Town Expo Center. I don't actually want a Jeep, this was one of the only pictures we took.

I look forward to updates, your readers care. :)

Parker is too adorable. I saw that ladybug costume and recognized it instantly. There is a picture of us in our little bug costumes on my wedding video, which my 3 year old insists on watching every day. :) I love that it is still around for your little one to wear.

I care if you update your blog -- I check it every day! You and Parker and the funny face is too cute. And I think Kory pulls off the Mad Hatter BETTER than Johnny Depp :)

Hi Amy! Love the funny face. My niece Brookelyn would do that but we called it "oh, scary" and she would clench her fists and shake too. Parkie is a doll! We need to come visit you guys!

Holy Cow! I guess it's been a while since I have seen Parker, because she looks like such a big girl! Cute, Cute, pictures.
