Happenings

Well things are moving right along for us. We finally sold our house so we are just bouncing around now until we decide wha to do. I am finishing school on December 14th and coincidentally that is also my last day of work. Dave and I want both think it would be great for me to stay home with Eden so that's what I am going to do. We are just getting ready for the holiday season now so that should be fun!

Little Hula Baby

A friend of mine went to Hawaii and she brought back this cute little outfit for Eden. I thought the coconuts were the dang cutest thing I have ever seen!

Halloween Fun

We dressed Eden up as a giraffe for Halloween and she didn't really like it. We went to a trunk or treat which is where the people in our church fill their car trunks with candy and kids go from car to car in costume to collect candy. Eden looked at everyone with a look of disbelief. I don't think she liked some of the scary costumes! Then we went to Dave's sister's house and went trick or treating with her daughters so Eden got to experience the true Halloween traditions. Maybe next year she will like it more!

Just some new things

Eden started crawling at 7 months and now she has decided to move on to trying to stand and walk...good luck to us trying to keep up with her!

Fun at the Zoo

We went to the zoo on our 3rd anniversary on October 8th. It was really fun because I had never been to Hogle Zoo before so Eden and I were experiencing it for the first time together.

This is such and awesome picture because there are 4 generations of the Heim family here! Grandpop, Dad, me, and then Eden. It was so nice to see Grandma and Grandpop for a week so they could spend time with their first little great-grandbaby!

This was at my Mom's 50th birthday party. It was so cute because we had these outfits made for us but Eden had been so interested in the preparty activities that she didn't have a nap...by the time the party rolled around at 6:45 she was so cranky I had to put her to bed and no one got to see her stinkin' cute little outfit!

Life update

Well everyone, I just wanted to start this page because I am horrible at trying to keep up with everyone so I thought this might be easier. Plus several of my friends said it works really well when trying to keep everyone updated on how the baby is doing and stuff. So here it is...my blog! Things are pretty dang hectic around the Parker household with all the things to do. Dave is still currently working in construction building houses and taking on numerous side projects. He is not content unless he has a project to work so it is rather handy to have him around! As for me, I am finishing my last semester at the University of Utah. My last final is December 14th...not that I am looking forward to that or anything! Then I will have a Bachelor of Science in Political Science but I don't really think I will be using it too much in the near future. I am currently working at a financial institution and I think I may stay there and see if I can make a career out of it. It seems interesting enough. And now for the information most of you want to know...all about Eden! Well she was born on March 19, 2007 at 11:55 p.m. I had to have a c-section because the little stinker was just too comfy in there and would not come out. She was 8 lbs. and 19 1/2 inches. I got to spend 8 weeks at home with her before going back to work which I must say was one of the hardest things I have ever done! She is so dang cute but I suppose most people think their child is cute. Some how I ended up with a very light skinned, blue eyed, baldy! Totally opposite from me! Now Eden is 6 months old and time just will not slow down for me. She is wolfing down solid foods (I can't keep the kid full...I think she takes after Dave), knows who her mommy and daddy are, loves to pull my dogs' hair, and is starting to crawl on the floor. It really does seem like just yesterday brought her home from the hospital!
