Our Cousins Party















I had so much fun at our "cousins party" last Saturday at Mark, Iva and Brendan's! All of us cousins got together to hang out. Mommy said she laughed so hard her cheeks hurt! There was lots of food and fun! I got to play with some new friends and all the grown ups were so nice to me too! Mommy had a great time listening to her cousin's stories and everybody had fun taking pictures! Daddy, Uncle Keith and Ed had fun watching the football game with all the other guy cousins. We are all looking forward to hanging out with everybody again real soon! I know Nana Parker was smiling down from heaven watching all of us having fun together!

Big NEWS!!!!

Happy New Year! Happy NEWS!






Mommy has been so tired lately! That's why we are so behind on our blogging! So our Christmas started off with our wonderful news...we're having a BABY!!! Mommy and Daddy were excited to tell Uncle Keith, Aunt Colleen, Angie and Ed on Christmas Eve before dinner. They had already shared the good news with Nana and Pop-Pop a few days before (just to let the "shock" set in)! Of course everyone is so excited and are eagerly awaiting the arrival of baby Howell #2 in August! I am especially excited to be a BIG brother - Mommy and Daddy think I will be great at it! Our Christmas was wonderful - of course it is a blur now, but it was filled with lots of fun times: playing games together, riding around on my new fire truck with Pop-Pop's help (he loved that!) and enjoying our family even though Nana Parker wasn't with us this year - we know she was having fun watching us in Heaven! We had such a wonderful 2007 we are looking forward to many wonderful "happenings" in 2008!
