Spending Father's Day with my son

Parker and I had a great time riding go karts and playing putt putt. 

We also got to open cards and gifts together. Parker helped with both my card and grandpa's card. This is how Parker opens cards...

It was a great day!

I forgot the sky

This morning at drop off, we decided to do some art before Dada left on the big plane for work in Seattle. Of course, I decided to draw a helicopter. I even added clouds and a sun. But Parker reminded me that I forgot to draw the sky. So, he found a piece of blue chalk and added it for me. He is definitely a stickler for detail. 

Farmer Parker

Check out Parker's first attempt at growing something. Seems like he has a green thumb. His is the bright yellow-green pot. 

Parker Warhol?

The other day when I was dropping Parker off at school, he showed me his new art project. Know what it is? I had to ask too. It's a juice box. See the straw? That's where the juice comes out. I think we have a Warhol on our hands. :)

Popsicle stick fun

What do you do when you are under tornado watch? Make Popsicle stick arts and crafts of course. Check out the train and airplane. Dada glued the sticks together and Parker decorated them with jewels. He was sparing because "it was not a special bocassion", but they still look good. 

Parker playing hopscotch

Can you believe how good Parker is at hopscotch even though he just learned how to do it 1 minute before this video was taken?

1st day at the new school

Parker started at his new school this morning. He gets to bring a lunch like a big boy. You can see him showing off his Spider-Man lunch tote below. He was a little apprehensive at first, but he warned up to the class quickly!
