Time is going by really slowly lately and I hate it!! Hopefully the new carpet will be in Mom and Deans rent house this week and Parker and I get our stuff moved in this weekend. Parker and I have a play date with my Aunt Wynter and her son Will who is I think 18 months old on Sunday. I'm not sure if we will get everything done on Saturday so we might have to finish moving in on Monday. I am glad they got a house in Lake Jackson that I can stay at. It will give me a feel for what it is like to live in LJ as an adult. It will help Me decided where we want to live when we move back if Joey gets a job in this area. Angleton seems so far away from all the good stores. Maybe it would be different if I lived in my own house and I wouldn't need to got to town all the time to get stuff.
Oh and I get my OWN room which means Privacy, Space, and Me Time ALONE!!!!

Day 70: Relaxing Day
Today we didn't do much of anything, it was really nice. The last couple days Parker has been pointing at the deer on the wall and we would tell him what they were. Today we asked him where the deer are and he pointed to them!! He is so smart!! I love teaching him stuff now that I can see him learning them!! Oh Oh I almost forgot, Parker used his sign language for real today. Grandma Ronnie was eating some little cookies and she gave him a couple. Well she thought he had had enough so she put them down. Then he pointed at her and then did the sign for "more"!!! I asked her to give him one to acknowledge he did the sign right!! Then he did it again but we had to tell him they were all gone!! I wish I had my sign language DVD with me, I don't remember all the signs!! I want him to learn MORE!!

Day 69: Parker and Brody = So Cute!
Tonight I got to babysit Brody while Rodney and Jana went to dinner. Parker and Brody had so much fun running around playing with each other. They play so good together since they are the same age. They run around making lots of weird noises. Tonight Brody was pushing the little lawn mower and pushed it right up to Parker and handed it to him like it was his turn. They trade toys back and forth and don't freak out when one takes the others toy. I can't wait to move down here so the boys can grow up together.

Day 68: Young and Fearless
When I was younger I wasn't scared of anything. If I thought a stranger was in my house I went looking for them ready to kick some rubber butt! Man how things change when you have a kid.
Tonight Parker and I went out to the Smith's house with Mike and Veronica for the annual night before opening day chili feast. Parker and I ducked out early imagine that! On our way home I was thinking about what I was going to write about tonight. I had it all planned out in my head to talk about how I was proud of myself for being selfless when it comes to Parker and not drinking if I am going to be driving with him, not even a glass. Well then I got home and this post changed course.
So I pulled up and pushed the garage door opener, jumped out of the car and grabbed Parker. When you walk into their garage to your left is a light switch which turns a light on in their driveway. So I reached up in the dark hoping I didn't touch a roach or something to turn the light on. When the light came on I turned to finish my walk through the garage until I saw the stand up freezer door wide open and a few packages of meat on the ground. I hurried back into the Yukon, shut the door and locked them and then started the car in case I needed to do a quick get away. The first thing that went through my head is I had interrupted someone while they were taking meat out of the freezer. When they heard the garage door opening they ran out the back door. So I sat in my car shaking wanting to cry not knowing what to do. The person I really wanted to call I couldn't and I didn't want to bother M & V cause they were enjoying themselves at the Smiths, but there wasn't anyway I was going to get out of my car and find out what was going on with my precious baby with me . So I picked up the phone and called V no answer, I thought Crap I really hope M has his phone on him cause if he didn't answer I didn't know what I was going to do. So I give it a shot and he answers thank God! I ask to talk to V since I knew she had only had 2 beers when I left and women are more sensitive specially when it comes to their Grandbabies. So I told her what I found and I told her I was not getting out of the car. I felt really bad knowing that the freezer door needed to be shut cause there is a TON of deer meat and fish in that freezer. I just couldn't risk something happening to Parker or I over deer meat though. V understood and said she was on her way. She arrived with Mrs. Rice and Rachel Smith (18ish) and her boyfriend. Rachel had a metal pipe in hand ready to use it. She rushed into the garage and into the house looking for a robbers butt to kick! She said she would love for someone to break in so she could use her pipe! Rachel is I think a little taller then I am but can't weight more then 120. She is a little thing with no fear in the world. When the only person you have to protect is yourself you can live like that. Now that I have this precious little boy I have all the fear in the world when it comes to bad things. I know it may see like I have to fear when it comes to him given the long exploitative rope I let him have. My fear is not that he will do something dangerous and hurt himself, he is a kid of course that will happen. I fear things that aren't suppose to happen like car wrecks, robbers, someone hurting me and leaving him alone while I die, You know the practical things!!! Well so back to the story. They searched the house and found nothing. A lot of the meat was pretty thawed out and that couldn't have happened in the 20 minutes it took them to get to the house after the "robbers" left! So the theory is that the freezer wasn't shut all the way and things slowly began to thaw out and when the 2 big roast thawed enough they fell out of the freezer causing the door to swing wide open. So I basically freaked out for nothing. Hey but you never know what people will do now a days in the economy, there could be meat thief's out there... right?!?!?!
