medicine

parks really likes medicine,

and he always has.

 the other night he had a slight fever (he is getting new teeth) and erik asked him if he wanted medicine. 

He was super excited and got ready.

After the medicine parks decided to take "tone" on a ride.  They made it all the way to the bathroom before they crashed.

  parks made sure to grap "tone" before fleeing the scene.

tyrone

parks would like you all to meet his best friend tyrone aka "tone" 

 "tone" goes everywhere with us. 

Parks is so funny he always treats "tone" just like we treat him (but we do not carry parks around by the neck). 

 He will have "tone" point to things and then he will tell them what they are, at church he kept showing "tone" the lights and the speakers, "tone" also had to sit on parks lap, just like parks was sitting on dads lap.

  Everytime parks wants to be picked up he will say me.  the other day "tone" was on the floor, parks walked by and said me then picked up "tone" 

We love our parks, and parks loves "tone"

noodles

Monday for lunch parks and i had noodles.

  Parks loves "noods" he was so excited when i showed him the box. 

While our noodles were cooking we had

chips, salsa, and a diet coke. 

Parks is my bestest buddy in the whole wide world.

basketball

parks has turned into a daddys boy.  he just kicked me out of the room he wants "dadee" to put him to sleep... so i quess i will blog.  parks loves to play with dad.  on satuday erik had to spend more time than normal at the library, and parks was not a fan.  everytime that we would walk into the house he would yell "dadee" and was so sad that no one answered. 

 Since then parks wont let erik leave his side 

On Sunday erik and parks played basketball.  Parks found that if he stood on the chair it is a whole lot easier to make a basket.

 

dunkin donuts

on friday night we went to dinner and then on a little drive.

  on the way home erik saw a dunkin donuts. 

erik loves dunkin donuts

(i think it is because it reminds him of being a kid in florida) so we stopped to get a treat. 

 Parks was so excited to get a "don" his grandpa introduced him to donuts a couple of months ago and since then he always wants one. 

Parks even told the man what donut he wanted. 

the whole car ride home parks kept saying "don" and pointing to his open mouth. 

 so dunkin donuts we love you and will be back often because nothing is better than a "don"

laundry

My little parks is being such a good little helper. 

he loves to help me with the laundry.  His favorite thing to wash is his "blanket". 

 as you can he he would put his blanket in the basket and then the basket into the dryer. 

 i love that i get to spend everyday with parks.

little boy

my baby is no longer a baby.  now he is a little boy. 

 The other night parks discovered that if you take the cushion off of the couch it makes it a lot more fun. 

 Everyday he starts acting more like a little mischevious boy. 

 i love that at the end of the day there are toys all over the living room floor,

 cushions off of the couch, and little action figures everywhere.  Every night as i clean up it makes me smile.

guns

the other day during lunch dad made parks and himself some guns. 

parks was so cute running around the family shooting everything. 

he even used his chair as a fort.  he is so funny

feeding the ducks

we have a lake where we live.  parks loves to feed the ducks.  Here are some of the highlights from the last trip to the lake

* parks liked to feed himself more than he liked to feed the ducks.

* he was constantly pointing next to him and telling the ducks that they needed to come to him

* he loves to run down the hill and chase the ducks into the water

* when i would throw bread to the ducks parks would run after it and pick it up and eat it

* he waved bye to the ducks

* parks could not understand why the ducks did not want to play with him

* parks would also put the bread right at his feet and tell the ducks to eat it
