Babies....

Since Parker was old enough to talk he has let us know how he felt about babies. When asked if he wants a brother or a sister he typically replies "no thanks." At target a month ago we walked by the baby stuff and he proclaimed rather loudly " babies are so yucky." Needless to say he is not a huge fan. My sweet friend has entrusted me to take care of her 9 week old baby three days a week. I was a little worried how Parker would react but about an hour into our first day I was changing the babies diaper and Parker was eating breakfast. I see him look over for a little while and then he says after a few minutes of deep thinking " you know, I guess I do like babies." I'm hoping that when we have another baby Parker will be as welcoming.

Did it work??!?!?!! I'm getting loads of "guess what's" lately.

I'm sur ehe love a baby, and sometimes maybe not so much. But that's the beauty of family, right?! :)

He is so insightful! It is amazing what comes out of these little mouths sometimes!

Maybe Parker's change of heart is a sign of things to come!

About the nike ipod . . . it is the one where you attach a sensor to your shoe and a usb type thing to your ipod. I really love mine. While I'm running it tells me my pace, distance, and calories burned. i ordered mine from Amazon, but I'm sure you could find them at Best Buy or any such store.

If you get one you'll have to let me know, because then we could "train" online together! All this technology . . .
