Parker loves the People!!

We've had the little man for two full weeks now and after careful deliberation and some international (via the interweb) research, he is still the most beautiful baby boy in the entire world.  He's running out of shelf-space for all the "best looking" trophies he continues to receive. 

I've decided he's the Queen Anne version of Justin Timberlake.  I mean, I don't know that he can sing or dance, or act (sort-of....have you seen The Social Network?!), BUT, he gets all the best looking women (and Lars) to flock to him just like JT does!   We've had some fun-filled visits from a lot of family and friends - Parker and I discussed, we've picked a couple of our favorites:

 
  • Shannon Johnson's zucchini bread.  I mean, seeing Shannon was fun too, but the bread was ridiculous.  Thank YOU Local Roots for that zucchini..and YOU Shannon Johnson for the magic that you and your kitchen creates!
  • The visit from Donna in the hospital, middle of the workday (though we wouldn't have known either way!), and with a gift basket for....well, it was for Treva.  But I LOVE US Weekly too!
  • Great Aunt Carol Bettesworth - yep, babies love Great Aunts!
  • Grandpa Totten even got into the act! 
  • Parker got to hang out with the ladies (and Erich) at wine night - which yet again proved that a) our friends are amazing people...and b) the Totten investment in Wapato Point Cellars is a sentimental one, clearly not a quality play.
  • Aunt Tiffany came over, she's a ton of fun according to Parker.  She remembers when Roark was that small - soon enough, Parker will be running around with a Windows Mobile Phone soccer ball too :(
  • Ernie came over recently as well - I didn't get the chance to snap any pictures with the two of them, but I do know that Parker felt some camaraderie with Ernie over the difficulties in eating corn on the cob.   
  • Bigelow Johnsons swung by too - I think Parker has eyes for Paige already, watch out now!!


Aunt Sarah was nice enough to spend several days with Master Parker, so she's a crowd favorite.  But, after all the fun visits, all the kisses and hand-holds...it turns out, Mom is still the favorite.  He's soft - but he knows where the goods are :).
