visit from baby parker


after the zoo trip, we were fortunate enough to spend time with my cousin's new baby, parker...as she is still in the hospital. a two week old gem...parker stole our hearts immediately! hampton had THE BEST time playing "mom," catering to his/my every whim. hmmm...i kinda love it! she was the bestest helper, and parker was absolutely perfect! of course, his remaining umbilical cord decided to fall off during my watch! garry thought i was crazy to put it in a ziploc...(thank heavens i did...countless people have asked me if i saved it)! parker stayed awake for so long, i was able to do a mini photo session (as his mom, who also loves to take pics, isn't able to). he was awesome! what a treat! a relatively still newborn...doesn't get much easier than that! looking forward to my next babysitting adventure, as hampton tells me i am "the best babysitter ever!" awww! (i didn't ask her about the "best mom ever" award tonight)!
