Happy 1st Birthday Parker James!

Our amazing little boy turned 1 year old on December 12th. We had a wonderful time celebrating with our family and friends. Here is a little bit of information about how Parker is growing up.
Weight: 25lb
Height: 31"
Shirt size: 2T - 3T
Pant size: 18mos
Shoe size: 3 - 4
He is in the 75% for height & weight and 95% for head.
Parker LOVES balls, any type of ball. He also likes to swim, swing, and slide. He can crawl like a champ but doesn't walk on his own. He likes to push his toys and to hold on to your hands and walk, but when he wants to stop walking he will most definitley let you know. Matt says that he can't walk because he has a big head with little feet and can't balance.
Parker is a talker. He will have a 30 minute conversation to himself with full hand gestures. Sometimes he gets so worked up I think he is swearing up a storm. He mimics everything you say, it may not sound exactly like our words but he trys his best. He can say Mama, Dada, Dog, up, down, touchdown (with motions), socks, shoe and much , much more. He can also sign eat, all done, and light. He loves to show off and get a reaction from us.
He is a lover with hugs and kisses all day long. He can be a mommy or daddy baby one minute and then play by himself for an hour the next. He is such a joy and a blessing. We are the happiest parents you could meet. Parker is such a great baby, we couldn't have asked for anything more! We love you sweet baby boy!
Happy Birthday Parker James!
Parker's smash cake
Of all the toys he got, his ball was his favorite. He didn't want to open anymore presents after that!
Kiara took all the good pictures and I have been waiting to get copies from her to post, so I will update with her pics when I get them.
