PRICELESS!

This is WAAAAAAAAAY BETTER than monkeys riding motorcycles or even Dubya dodging a pair of size 10 loafers! (Sorry for the crappy quality, hope you can see it well enough to enjoy it... and yes, he was totally asleep!)

More to come...

Quick Update

No folks, we have not fallen off the face of the earth. We are housesitting for Parker's Grammie and Papa while they are on vacation. So, I don't have my camera USB out here to upload pics or video. Look for a new update with new pics and maybe even a video next week when we are back at our own house!

Upstaged

Hi everyone, it's Parker. I just wanted to post a real quick entry just to say that I'm a little teed off. You see, I am the oldest cousin. My cousin Landon is 6 months younger than me, and my cousin Annelise is still in my Aunt Laura's tummy doing some growing. Being that I'm the oldest, I should be the FIRST to do everything. Well NO....that darn Landon has upstaged me! I FINALLY got my first tooth a few weeks ago, and wouldn't you know it, now Landon has gotten not only his first tooth, but also his second tooth. And here I am, still waiting for my second tooth to poke through. It's not fair, I tell ya! Here is Landon getting all these teeth and he is still too young to eat real grown up food. I'm old enough for the steak and potatoes, but my mommy and daddy won't give me steak yet since I only have one tooth to try to chew it with. (But they do give me potatoes, and I do LOVE ME SOME POTATOES!) Well guess what Landon, I'm still bigger than you and can beat you in a crawling race any day!

You could probably tell from the last thing the kitties wrote that my mommy and daddy love to embarass me. Well, here is some more proof. If only I could dial the phone (and actually talk in grown up language), I would call CPS on these two in no time at all!
Mommy thought I was looking especially adorable this morning just sitting so patiently while she and daddy got ready for church. So she took a picture of me being such a good boy. I rewarded her with a tongue-filled smile for the camera.
I don't really have anything else to say today, and it's about my bedtime anyway, so I'll just leave you with a couple of movies of me.


Have you ever seen a kid go from perky to pissed off in a matter of seconds??? All my mommy and daddy have to do is give me my little 4-wheeler and BOY DOES THAT THING MAKE ME MAD! See....



Also, I found these new fun toys in the kitchen. Mommy keeps telling daddy that he needs to "baby-proof" them so I don't pull something out and end up hurting myself. I don't know what "baby-proofing" is, but I hope daddy never does it! Also, I am speaking in my secret Parker language in the video. No one will ever know what I am saying....


Alright people, I'm out for now. Happy Turkey Day to you all - hopefully these crazy grown ups will actually let me taste some!

Monkey business

Ok, we are convinced. Our humans have completely FLIPPED THEIR LIDS.
CAN YOU BELIEVE that humans PURPOSELY dress their miniatures up in get-ups like this?

Seriously, check out the look of despair in that poor kid's eyes.

But wait....it gets weirder. As if ONE small person dressed as an animal wasn't enough...a little while later we glanced outside and saw this.....


Yes, that's right, 2 small children dressed as animals. That's Parker's friend Mason, although if we were Mason we are sure we wouldn't be friends with Parker anymore if it meant having to get dressed up in a ridiculous outfit to get to see him.

AND THEN all 3 humans left for a while and we are told that while they were gone they found this.....That's a turkey, my friends. Parker's cousin Landon dressed as a turkey. Poor guy is only 4 months old and could not even effectively protest the madness.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE??? We are SO, SO, SO thankful that they didn't get ahold of any strange outfits in our sizes! We definitely would have been scarred for life.

So there's been a big to-do around here in the past few days because Parker FINALLY got a tooth. Well guess what people...we were BORN with teeth. That's right, 26 of 'em, in perfect working order. Did anyone make a big fuss about that when we were born? Nope. Absolutely not. When will you people learn that we cats really are superior to your species!?!? We don't have any pictures of the tiny tooth to share, because the little monster HATES for anyone to try to look or feel in his mouth. But we promise, there's a tooth there. One tiny tooth. Right there on the bottom. Whoopedeedoo.

That kid keeps us laughing though. He has learned to dance. That's all he does anymore. Music or no music, the kid is constantly dancing. We shot this video as proof. (Ok, so it is entirely possible that he is making a nice little present during the shooting of this video, but he never gave up the dancing in the process. Perhaps the dancing actually helped to "move things along" a little better??!?!) And yes, we realize that he is dancing on a pole. Keep your filthy jokes to yourselves (especially you, Uncle Cody, Uncle Jason and Uncle Russell).



Ok, that's all we got for this week.

Until next time,

Making up for lost time

Ok, so yeah, it's been a while. Life gets hectic. The days run out of hours. It happens.

Since the last post.....
Let me introduce you to my future daughter-in-law, Miss Harlee Dianne Hayek. Parker's little girlfriend was born on October 16th and weighed in at 6 pounds, 15 ounces. He is a little timid around her right now, but someday he'll open up around her, I'm sure!

This picture will someday be shown on the jumbotron at Kyle Field, when Parker starts for the Texas A&M football team. Whoop! ("Put me in coach, I'm ready to play...")

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25TH: THE MAIN EVENT - PARKER vs. THE NIGHTSTAND It's fairly obvious who the winner was...


"V-Smile Baby?" no thanks. "Barney videos?" who needs 'em? "Tonka dump truck with jumbo legos?" BORING. "Toilet paper rolls?" NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN 'BOUT!
(apparently toilet paper also has opioid properties that serve to make a baby appear stoned out of his mind)

We grown ups got a much needed break from babyland on Sunday and headed to Houston to watch the Texans play the Bengals. The Texans won big (can't remember the score), and we had a great time just being grown ups with our friends!

Ryan, Ryan and Cody

Me, Laura and Karissa tailgating with Miller Lite before the game

We decided to try Parker's Halloween costume on him to make sure it would work for his very first Halloween. He tolerated it for about 2 1/2 minutes. I'll try to get some better pictures of our little monkey on Halloween.


Parker is learning how to wave "bye-bye" when someone says bye-bye to him. I got this short video of it. Sorry it's from behind him, but if he had seen the camera he would have been trying to eat the camera instead of waving. (he also gives you a sneak-peek at his mad dancing skills in the middle of the video. anytime you say "Dancy, dancy" he shakes his little booty and dances. The next Fred Astaire? Nah, probably just the next Ryan Weishuhn...poor kid. anyone who has seen Ryan dance knows what I'm talking about.)



AND FINALLY.... while downloading pics for this post I came across a pic of Parker from a year ago. I'll put it with one from now...my how he's grown! (cue sappy sentimental music, and get me a kleenex!)



Ok, that's all for now.
Until next time,
Sarah

Adventures in MEAT

First of all, we'd like to say that we are still trying to adjust to having one little noise box in our house. Why, then, did Sarah insist on allowing THIS to happen a couple of weeks ago??

Yup, that's ANOTHER miniature person IN OUR HOUSE! I tried to give her the stare-down and intimidate her into leaving...it only made her more intrigued by me.
Her name is Ella, and she's one of Parker's girlfriends. He will have lots of girlfriends, since girls are the only thing that seem to be being born anymore. (Except for Parker's homeboys Mason and Landon, of course!)

Anyway, Sarah likes to call me a "bed hog" because I insist on sharing her pillow with her when she sleeps at night. I entered the room the other night to find THIS....that kid learns fast!
In no time at all we shall succeed in ridding that room of grown ups all together!
And yes, that clock in the background says 4:48. Yes, that is in the morning. Yes, the lady human and we felines were up at that time. And it was a Saturday morning. We have lost our damn minds.
So Parker is expanding his diet these days. He's now eating cheerios (he has only choked a couple times so far, so now they are being broken in half before he gets them), and has been introduced to the wonderful world of baby foods containing MEAT. We think they smell simply scrumptious. We think he disagrees. Here's what happened on his first experience with turkey with rice and mixed vegetables.

Stay tuned to future posts for his opinion of beef and chicken.

Well alrighty, that's all I have for now. I've been up and around for approximately 27 minutes now, so it's about time for another catnap.

Until next time,

OWWWWWIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!

Hi! It's me, Parker! My mommy told me that a friend of hers (who shall remain nameless, but she says her name rhymes with Schmecky Schmagarr) once tried to get rid of my Aunt Heather's cats by hiding them in a box while no one was looking. Since I wanted to speak my mind tonight, I decided I'd give her trick a try. I only have a little while before those cats break free and realize that I have hijacked their blog, so I'd better make this quick...

I AM A BIG, GROWING BOY! I turned 9 MONTHS OLD on Friday, and so today my mommy and my Grammie took me to Giddings to visit my girlfriend Dr. Amy. She always tells me I'm SO HANDSOME, and who could argue with her??? Sometimes Dr. Amy is not my friend, like when she makes me be still so she can look in my ears, or when she makes me open my mouth so she can look in there. I try to promise her that I am NOT stashing away food in either of those places, but she insists on looking anyway. Today the doctor told us that I weigh 23 pounds and 9 ounces and I am 28.5 inches long. I am such a pro at growing! Since I was born, I have gained almost 14 pounds and have grown 7.5 inches! If any of you little babies out there need tips on how to become big and strong, just hit me up! After I flirted with Dr. Amy for a while she left the room and sent in another lady. This lady does NOT want to be friends with me! First she made my mommy and my Grammie hold me down while she stuck a needle in my arm and pulled out some of my blood - OUCH! I protested as loud as I could, but she did it anyway! She says they are making sure my blood counts are ok and that I don't have high levels of lead in my blood. Apparently it's normal to torture babies like this when they are my age. When it was finally over, I was just beginning to calm down when she made them hold me down again. I knew this was going to be bad news when YOW! SHE STUCK A NEEDLE IN MY CHUNKY THIGH THIS TIME! This time she pushed some stuff INTO my skin instead of pulling blood out! I don't know why these people insisted on hurting me today! I cried for a little while, but was quiet by the time we got out to the car. I was so glad my mommy and my Grammie got me the heck outta that place!


My cousin Landon got baptized yesterday. I'm so glad HE was the one getting water dumped on his head this time! I remember when that man dumped water on my head and BOY WAS I MAD! Landon was NOT happy about the water either. Here's a picture, but you can't tell that he was crying.


My mommy hasn't taken any embarassing pictures of me lately, so I thought it may be about time to share some embarassing pictures of Landon. My Aunt Heather sent these to mommy today - they are of Landon's first day back at day care. After seeing these, I sure am glad that I don't go to a day care, because they do WEIRD THINGS there!

A couple of final things...I want to give a shout out to my new homegirl Reisy Day Janca, who was born last week Thursday. Mommy says she is SO CUTE and that I'll definitely like her when I get older. Now I am just waiting for my other girlfriend prospect, Baby Girl Hayek, to be born sometime very soon! And mommy says that she'd like all of you to pray for the family of her former boss and friend, Kelley Oliphint. Kelley passed away Sunday evening from brain cancer, and he was only 42 years old. He leaves behind a wife and a 10 year old son and TONS of friends.

I guess I'd better go let those cats out of the box now before they get a chance to plot their evil revenge against me!

Until next time,

Parker
