Parker 26 mths!

Here are some fun pics from yesterday. I have been meaning to put up some new pics b/c she is getting so big! I wish all of you could hear her talk. It is the cutest thing!! She says everything now! She likes to say, "no way!! and, not today!" (insert a two yr old attitude) when I tell her it is time to potty ;) I have been potty training her this week. It has been great b/c my mom washes all of the dirty stuff and she LOVES for my mom to take her poop! ha!! We are still working on the whole "poop" thing but overall she has done great! I am 26 weeks pregnant this week. I will be 30 before ya know it! We decided to start her name with a "k" instead of "ch" because we thought it would be easier for people to pronouce and save her from a little headache all of her life =) We/she will still be able to explain why we chose the name and where it came from. So there ya have it! Kesed Grace Turley! Enjoy these sweet pics! We can't wait for Tanner to get here in two days! He will be staying a week this time. So exciting. =)
**I am in the middle of changing the colors, etc on the blog so that is the reason you can't read some of the letters! I promise later I will change the colors of the rest of the words so you can actually read them =) sorry!

hide and seek

love it, kinda dark but so sweet sitting on Uncle Kealon's boat

run run run!

surprise!

Mom-mom and Grandad surprised Parker with her very own baby bed built by Grandad and designed by GramB ten years ago! How sweet! She LOVED it!  It was such a thoughtful gift and so sweet of them to ship it up here.  Mom-mom made the blanket.  I am sure it will get much use!  Parker wanted to put it in her bed tonight =) I will let the pictures speak for themselves but thank you again for such a thoughtful gift (they know how much she loves her babies!)  I promise to change my background soon so it is easier to read. =)

she thought it was a lil bed for her at first ;)
but then....oh yes, we told her it was for her babies and look at this cuteness!!  She ran with so much excitement.  

hide and seek with the blanket =)
she was cold so she decided to cover up with it 
part of her new kitchen from Nanu, Pa, GramB, and Papaw...the adorable refrigerator is still to come.  Tanner did a great job constructing it like a true man! =)

Turning TWO!

Can't believe she will be two in just a few days!  We had a little early celebration since Nanu and Pa won't see her for her birthday this year.  She LOVED the sprinkles or ("binkles") =).  We had a great time visiting everyone down in GA!  She loves her Aunt "Kimmy" and Uncle Kealon.  She made them chase her around the house relentlessly.  She made my dad watch way too much wiggles =) and she said NANU!!! about every point five seconds. =)  We are excited to celebrate more in KY!  Sorry I put the pics in the wrong order.

helping Pa with his exercises =) 
"up and down, Pa!" "up and down"

THE WIGGLES! THE WIGGLES!

Friday night we took Parker to The Wiggles concert.  She LOVED it.  It was so fun to see her face.  For those of you who don't know, the Wiggles are made up of four men and some animals that jump and around and sing crazy songs...it is one of her favorites on tv.  Tanner made the comment that the first concert we go to in Boston is the wiggles =) but her excitement was so worth it.  There were SO many kids in downtown Boston.  People were asking..."why are there so many kids in the city right now??"  The theatre was incredible.  I was excited about the nachos for this icky stomach but they were cold.  =(  boo.  She sang along with them and did the hand motions as you can see below.  too cute!  She is getting so big.  She is flying through her clothes right now...getting tall and a little more round. ;) She has grown out of 4 pair of jeans in a month easily.  We had a great corporate gathering last night for Redemption Hill.  It was exciting to see ppl come and get excited about who we want to be and what we want to look like.  The Lord continues to bless RHC in numerous ways, especially financially.  We are so thankful for that.  I was able to take some maternity pics of another church planter wife up here.  I loved shooting them in the city! It offers so many new opportunities!  I was getting so tired of greenery...excited about new colors, textures, doors, buildings, etc.  =) 

Enjoy! 

ready!
