PARTY!!!

Parker's friend, Will, had his 1st birthday party on Saturday. We were very excited to get to go and share in the special day with Will, Mike and Whitney. This was Parker's first time to be an "official" invited guest to a party, so it was fun. The weather was great and the park and pavillion, where the party was held, was very nice. The Cookie Monster cupcakes Whitney made were yummy and Parker got a few bites of the cake part.
Parker had a busy day that Saturday. Earlier in the day, we went to a "pottery" party and Parker got his handprints made for a Santa plate he is getting for Christmas. Then, after the "pottery" party, we had our swim class, then after swim, we headed to Will's birthday party. It was a busy, but very fun day!

Parker and Will - good buddies.

I believe Will was starting to wonder why he was suddenly in a diaper when everyone else was wearing clothes. I think this picture is cute, because it's like Parker is leaning over saying, "Dude, everything's going to be okay - I see cake!"

Will invited his friends over to help "smash" the cake. Parker didn't quite know what to think. We did manage to get a little icing on his fingers, but he didn't know what he was supposed to do next. I told him we had 2 more weeks to practice!
