My baby boy... well maybe I should say Toddler had his 18 month checkup and all things looked great! Our little bundle of joy is growing and he amazes us each and every day with new words, his skills, his emotions and everything else! The Stats: Height - 34 inches - 90% Weight - 27 lbs - 75% He's only 2 feet from outgrowing his mom!! Yikes! He's also got a slowly growing vocabulary. As of today, he knows how to say: -bear -berry -mameh (milk) -mommy and daddy -wall -ball -shhhhzzz (shoes) and he makes so many sounds that mimic animals and cars. Its SO CUTE! Ugh, i love Leonidus so much. Can you tell I'm a proud mama? :) amd for those of you who know LJ, you know he's obsessed with all kinds of sports...especially those that involve balls. He still golfs around the house, yard and just about everywhere else we go daily. I am not joking, he LOVES it. He's now added baseball swings and basketball throws to his daily list of things to do. He even loves to watch all the ...

Going to march madness games tonight at the HP Pavillion. Hopefully will make it there by 4ish. LJ's first college bball game. Can add it to his list of sporting events. I'm sure he'll LOVE it. will post pics! Peace

OMG OMG, its so beautiful outside. Its like as soon as Daylight savings kicked in, it made life so much better. I'm still trying to find that lost hours worth of sleep but the extra daylight in the evenings and the beautiful spring weather make it all worth it. Here are some pics that I took that just SCREAM SPRING!! Nothing says spring like a sunday at the farmers market: Enjoy this GLORIOUS DAY! Happy st Patty's!!

great day at work.. just got moved into a cube with a window!! I'm so happy. My other cube was awfully located in an area that I faced a hallway so everyone walked in and around past me and stared... the worst was when I was trying to stuff my lunch in my mouth in the mere 10 minutes I had to eat. I mean, its not cute and everyone had to witness it. So thankful for my new cube today! I'm also thankful that its Thursday. This week was LONG and I had the worst tummy pains! Its gotten to the point where I'm going to see my doctor, i swear I think I have appendicitis. Let's HOPE I'm wrong but the pain in a bit worrisome and at times unbearable. My plans for the weekend look fun so I better be back in full functioning mode in 24 hours. I get to see dear friends, spend time with family, have LJ play with his beloved Jace, Aryana and Cyrus and hopefully get some much needed quality time with my hubby. Don't have much time for REST & RELAXATION but who has time for ...

oh the life of a working mom. Things have been insane the past few weeks and i swear i feel like exhausted when I finally get to hit the couch by 9pm. Working full time, being pregnant and having to take care of a family can be challenging at times. Don't get me wrong, I am FAR from complaining. I love my life and all things that make it what it is but WOW, can you say Life is CRAZY BUSY right now! I hope that I can take a babymoon somewhere sometime in the near future but we'll have to see about that. The Parry fam boys are doing great. Neil is busy working and getting ready to start the new season with the Sobrato Bull Dawgs. LJ is growing growing growing and getting cuter and more affectionate and personable as the days come. I just adore my little dude to pieces!!! The doggies (since they are part of the Parry boys) are great too. They love having a backyard and they love playing outside when the weather allows it. LJ is enrolled in lots of activities and we hope to get hi...

I have to tell everyone about my friends Etsy store because she's UBER SUPER DUPER talented and makes the cuties room decor and onesies for your little kiddo's. You can check out her work here @ lapetitebebeboutique.etsy.com Spread the word because she'll be selling her stuff in department stores in no time. She made LJ a few things for his 1st birthday, one of which is shown below. a custom banner with his name. It looks SOOOO cute on his wall!! and if that wasn't cute enough, I got an LJ padded pillow to hang on his wall too. My son has everyone now fully personalized :) Yay for La Petite Boutique :)

After 18 weeks of waiting and wondering, The Parry Family is excited to announce that come this summer, we will be adding another baby boy to our family. It's funny because ever since I found out I was pregnant everyone had predicted this one was also going to be a boy...I always had this feeling I was going to have all boys but to hear it actually from your doctor that my 2nd baby is another boy was an emotionally overwhelming experience. Neil is beyond excited and on cloud 9. He started to give me high fives as we walked out of the doctor office and he began telling Leonidus about all the fun that he was going to have once his brother arrives. I guess the news means that I get to save a WHOLE lot of money but at the same time, Leonidus and his new baby bro are being born into different seasons meaning I'll need to buy the new bambino some CUTE summer wear!! Leonidus grew very fast... I mean, he was 90+% on many of his chart stats so he outgrew the cute Carter 0-9month outfit...
