Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season. Our first Christmas with Parker was everything we hoped it would be. It was so awesome to have him around for our family's annual traditions.
He was fantastic during our trip to see the extended family and was content with all of the strangers holding him. He also enjoyed playing on the floor while everyone watched and played with him.
Shortly before the holidays, I stopped feeding Parker right before I went to bed, and to my surprise, he didn't miss a beat. Now, he sleeps straight from about 8:30 until 7:45 or so. Amazing! Then, he eats, stays up for about an hour, and then sleeps again for another hour or two. Since I am not a morning person, this is more than I could have hoped for. This morning, the whole family slept in until 11:15. What a great start to New Year's Day.
Parker is fond of putting his bib over his face and having someone lift it off in a peek-a-boo game. So silly. He's really into petting the cats now and can rip out a clump of fur. Poor kitties, but they are good sports and come up to him for a pat. If I place him just right, Parker can sort of balance in a sitting position for a few seconds, and he seems to be sprouting a bottom tooth! He's growing so fast. I just can't stand it!
