Parker. 1 Year Big.
Wild ONE!
Milo wouldn’t pose which made for perfect lifestyle shots.
We had so much fun doing their normal. SO MUCH FUN!
Oh, what fun!
Here are a few fun facts about this little guy…
What is your favorite memory during your child’s first year of life?
Mom- We have so many wonderful memories I don’t think I can choose! I guess I will have to go with the day he was born. We anticipated his arrival for what seemed like forever and I’ll never forget those first quiet moments we got to share as a family.
Dad- It’s not a specific moment in time, but at some point (maybe around 10 months) he started to point at things with his chubby finger at say what we interpret as “What’s that?” He always looks so inquisitive when he does it and now, he loves for us to describe what he is pointing at.
Do you have a funny story or something that happened in her first year that you’d like to share?
Mom- Well this has happened a couple of times now but Parker has been known to “help himself” to other people’s food. First, it was his friend’s quesadilla at daycare and most recently he “noticed” that the boy next to him in the church nursery wasn’t eating his cookie…naturally, he helped himself.
Dad- It doesn’t take any detective work to realize that Parker eats well. One day I came home from work and Marisa says: “Guess what you son did today at daycare?……He stole a quesadilla from the kid next to him?” It made us laugh pretty hard to imagine him finishing his meal and then plotting to find more.
What age/month has been your favorite and why?
Mom- I have loved each stage for different reasons but I think my favorite so far has been 6 months. He was able to sit up and started eating solid foods. I was also off for the summer so it was nice to spend the days exploring new things together.
Dad- Around 7 months. This is when he started to get really excited when I walked in the door from work and started to laugh and make a lot of verbal cues unprovoked.
One word to describe your baby is…
Mom and Dad- Determined!

What was your favorite part of your session with Crystal Jo?
Mom- Parker had a great time working (playing) with Crystal Jo! He was so interested in her camera. She was so patient with him.
Dad- How much Crystal Jo seemed to be enjoying being at our home taking pictures of Parker. (He was being pretty silly and really liked her camera.)
