To a wonderful mother!



Mom has all ways been there for Britt and I no matter the circumstances. She has helped us so much with Parker its crazy. The first day we came home from the hospital she took us to the grocery store and bought us all of our favorites, and some things that we needed. The first night we were back she let Britt and I sleep while she watched the baby. She stayed for a whole week with us after Parker was born. She woke up every single time and helped us feed and change him. In the hospital she was forgiving when I, her son in law had an emotional break down for no reason. she is a wonderful person all ways willing to drop everything and help. Last year I was having horrible pain in my abdomen, she dropped everything to come drive me everywhere to go get tests done to see what was wrong with me. She had so much planned for that day, she had visitors at her house and had other commitments but she was willing to drive me around, and forget what she had to do. We love her so much, and I am glad I wound up with the best mother in-law any one could have! I love you so much mom! Thanks for all that you do for Britt Parker and I!!!

Parker!!!

Well it's been two weeks since Parker has been born. He looks completely different than the the first time we met him in person. He gets more and more handsome every day. It's amazing how fast you fall in love with these little people. Parker is such a calm baby! Britt and I are so blessed to have this little guy in our family. He wakes up once a night, it sometimes takes an hour to an hour and a half to help him fall a sleep when he wakes up, but he only wakes up once a night!!! It is so much fun to have him in our home to take care of and love! Brittany's mom Klyss has helped us out so much with Parker! It's just great having a mother in law that cares so much for us and Parker! She is a blessing in our lives! She has even watched him as Britt and I went to go see Twilight the night it opened. I think it is so important that Britt and i get out of the house just me and her once to twice a month, so we can nourish and strengthen our marriage, and become stronger together for Parker. As Parents we need time alone to organize our thoughts and forget our troubles and worries. I think this will help us be more patient and able to raise Parker in a good manner.We love Parker so much, and all we want is the best for him!

Britt and I Just want to thank everyone for helping us as we settled down with Parker!
A special thanks to Brittany Oliver our next door neighbor who has helped so much! She has brought us dinner, cold medicine, let us borrow a bassonet, Movies, etc. We could not have done this without the generosity and kindness of everyone, Thanks!!!

Thank You!!!
