Parker Turns Two!

My son is two! Such a big boy.

Live From Austin

So we've been in Austin for a week now. All settled into our temp place. I will always be grateful and thankful for my friends who took me in. Parker's so happy. He loves the dogs and can even call both of them by name. Quite a feat for a kidlet who still isn't talking. He learned how to say banana on the drive down here and we sang Twinkle Twinkle Little Star until he fell asleep. He did great and behaved wonderfully despite having his nap cut short and then strapped into a car seat.
Now time to find a job and then a place to live. Only good things ahead for us. Pictures soon. The bluebells are in bloom so poor Parker has to go sit in a field of them and pose like he's having the time of his life.

Things Mom Dresses Me In

Don't you just love it?

Monday Morning

Today I saw K driving down the street as I looked out the window while changing Parker. I knew most likely he had to pass our place on the way to his. But I'd been lucky and not seen him. It upset me a lot more than I realized. In fact, I think it gave me a minor panic attack. I can't wait to move. It's very unsettling to have him living across the street. My arm is still sore to the touch almost a month later. But Parker and I spent some time outside and I feel much better.

This just happened somewhere in the internets-

*****says: pepsi has too much sugar in it for me....I'll drink it if I have
to...but *shrugs*

Why would you HAVE to drink soda? Is there not water? Maybe juice as a last resort...

A Little Ditty About My Windshield

Right before I moved away from MO, my windshield was cracked by baseball size hail during a tornado. I just dealt with it, but once I moved to Texas, the heat here made lots more cracks. I finally convinced K to replace it. And I seriously lived in dread that it would get a rock chip or more hail damage. And then one day, a crack appeared and spread like wildfire. I somehow managed to get it replaced for free even though I was 2,000 miles away from the company that repaired it. Then a vent started to leak every time it rained hard. Then I noticed a warp. Then I got a rock chip. So I headed back to the first place that replaced it and viola! I am getting a new windshield tomorrow. It's about the one lucky thing that's happened to me in the past month. I'm very excited to get yet another shiny windshield and hopefully it was the install that made water leak into the vent.

One Week Before Yet Another Move

It's about time for me to get busy packing. Ugh. I'm just not motivated at all. However, here are some highlights from our week-

We met with a behaviorist on Thursday who said Parker was acting normal for his age and he would be fine as long as he had me, his primary caregiver. I have noticed a big change in him since we've been home together.

My favorite moment- Carmy the cat meowed and Parker waved back to him. Too cute!
