Just like Mommy!

Everyone comments on how Parker looks like Ric. It's true, our little man bears many a resemblance to his daddy. My favorite, is the famous "Reyes furrowed brow" Check it out:

Awesome, right?

However, I was a little sad that I couldn't see any of ME in Parker. I know, he's only nine weeks old. And there's so much about our little Bubba that we haven't discovered yet... so there are still thousands of things that Parker might've inherited from me that we don't know about yet.

Still. I want some part of our son to look like me now.

Well... I was looking through some old baby pictures and it turns out we have a few resemblances...

And our newborn picture in the hospital:

** heart melts** It's just nice to see a little bit of mama in our little guy! :o)

Parker's New Trick

Goodbye to the NB

Parker is too big for his Newborn size clothes. I've known this for a few weeks, but still was able to squeeze him in a few last NB items.

But no more.

Today I sorted through his NB clothes and decided what we will keep for (hopefully!) baby boy #2 in the future.

I have mixed emotions: I'm so excited to see our little guy grow, but there is a small mourning as well because I'll never get those first few months back.

Parker's dresser drawers are organized by size, so I've moved up all the 0-3 month sizes to the top drawers. I can't believe I'm now going through all the 3-6 month sizes to prepare for the upcoming months.

3-6 months! I can't imagine my little Bubba fitting into those clothes, but I know he will be filling them out all too soon.

Happy 4th of July!

This is Parker's first 4th of July. So of course I had to take 50 pictures to mark the occasion. :o)

Tonight, we'll be hanging out with some friends for a BBQ. I'm already excited for his next 4th of July when he'll be able to really enjoy the fireworks.

Thank you to Grammy for this adorable onesie!
