Baby Parker

Parker Michael Lifferth was born on August 14th at 5:11am. He was 8 lbs 3 oz and 20 in long. As many of you know our new little family has been under quite a bit these past 8 days. I will update with more pictures as soon as we are home (hopefully Sunday) and settled in!

Baby Clara

Baby Clara is finally here!! This is our newest niece and she is so beautiful! She is a tiny thing and so sweet! We are so proud of Shauna. She is an amazing woman and will make a wonderful mother! Jeremy is also a proud Dad and will be a great father! We are so excited to have them as family! Congrats! We love ya'll! We think that baby Parker is getting very anxious to meet his new cousin and hope that he will come soon!

Busy, Busy, Busy!

I know it has been awhile so I thought I would show some of what we have been up to. Not a whole lot of cool stuff, but busy stuff. There does not seem to been enough hours in the day and I definitely do not have the energy required to do it all! So we take it one day at a time and one project at a time!

Landon loves to play with Daddy! He is so much more fun than Mommy! Landon is growing everyday. He has quite the vocabulary. He loves to repeat everything so we have to be careful what we say. He is putting words together. Not quite sentences, but lots of phrases.

Here are our 4th of July shirts. We had a great day out at the Rosa's. They are very generous to allow all of us crazy Lifferth's out there! We swam, ate, and had a great firework show! Which Landon only liked the Sparklers this year.

Here is Landon and Brady. Landon loves to have people drive him around. He doesn't care some much for the driving. Probably because he is not as good as his friends. So he is really content just riding and watching. Its pretty cute! Thanks to Brady, Olivia, and Brandon for driving him around. He really loves it!

My sister came to visit last month. Don't be decieved by the picture. I may look bigger, but when we measured I wasn't much bigger than her. Like an inch. We just carry completely different. I look like I swallowed a basketball and her's is spread out. Either way I do look fatter, but she has gained more weight! Go me!

Landon loves the water! I haven't taken enough pictures this summer. We have spent a lot of time at Mom's pool and he just loves it! Thanks Nina and Poppa for letting come and use the pool.

The other day Landon decided he wanted to play with all the stickers on the sheet. While I was trying to take his picture he was trying to take my picture with his cell phone.

Random Moments

This is definitely a rare occurrence. To have all four kids playing together quietly! I could not resist the sweetness of the moment.

Landon loves to wear Da-Da's shoes. He thinks he is big stuff!

Landon also loves his tool set. Thanks Popa!


Another quite moment. This only lasted about 5 minutes.

This is how Landon helped me pack to go to Houston! I guess he needed to take a rest. Earlier this month Landon and I got to go to Houston to visit Aunt Jamie, Uncle Reed, and his new baby cousin(still in the womb)! We had a good time. Landon went swimming, shopping, etc!! Oh and it was way too hot down there!

Discovery Center

One rainy Friday afternoon, about a month ago, we decided to take Landon to the Discovery Center. This proved to be a great event! There are tons of things for kids to get into and play with. Landon had a blast moving from station to station.

Easter

Easter Morning Chris decided that he wanted to dye some eggs. He did an awesome job!

Here is Landon trying to help him put stickers on the eggs. It worked okay till Landon tried to eat a sticker!

Landon was very happy about his Easter basket. He didn't even care about the candy. It was all about the toys!




Today was Landon's first official day in Nursery. He lasted the whole time. He was sad when Chris dropped him off, but he got over that. If you can't tell the bunny is his hand. I thought that was adorable!

That afternoon we had an egg hunt at my parents. Landon got the hang of it after a while. Maybe next year he will get more eggs which means more candy for me!

I hope this does not embarass my husband, but I thought it was too cute not to share. Chris is so thoughtful and creative. He never ceases to amaze me! So being pregnant has really taken a toll on my digestive system. At my last appointment with my Midwife she had plenty of suggesions to help solve this problem. My wonderful husband took excellent notes! On Easter morning Chris told me to find my basket. This being one of his favorite family traditions. So I searched with no success and my excitement building cause I love candy! He gave me a hint and I knew right away it was in the dryer. I opened the dryer to this: 1 bottle of Plum Smart Juice, Fig Newtons, dried apricots, 1 box of Metamucil Crackers, and peanut butter cups. I was very surprised to say the least and I had to laugh. I thought it was so sweet that he put my needs before my wants!! Candy would not have helped me even though I LOVE IT!! Thank you so much Chris you definitely made it memorable!!

Me and My Boys

On Saturday we decided to take some family pictures with the help of Sarah(my neighbor)! In turn I took family pictures for them. It was a beautiful day and we were experimenting with Sarah's new camera. I think she did a pretty good job! I thought it was time to get a family picture before our family gets even bigger to mark the milestones! As most of you know we found out a couple of weeks ago that we are having another little boy. We could not be happier! This little boy will be very special and we just ask that you keep him in your prayers! Thank you for all of your support and concern. It has provided Chris and I great comfort!!
