Rollin' and a Ridin'!


Last Sunday was a big day at the Pacheco house! After many attempts and working himself to exhaustion, Parker finally rolled over! Since then he has done it several times but he is a very chill and content baby, luckily he is not too much of a mover yet!
It was also a big day for Payton! It was the day she wanted her training wheels off! She knew she was ready! Karl had tried a few months back but mentally she was not ready, but Sunday she took off and hasnt looked back since! It is ALL she wants to do, ride ride ride! We are so proud and enjoy watching our kids achieve these fun little milestones!

Back 2 School x 3

Tuesday was the first day of school for the three of us! Payton is now "officially" a Kindergartener and Paige is "officially" a Bear! Paige got potty trained a week after Parker was born so she has been going to school over the summer. And as for me, I had my first day back at work! It went really smoothly and I thik we will have a great group of kids this year!
Can you tell Payton was excited?Grandma was so nice and came to pick up Parker for me, it cut out about a half an hour of time so I could get pictures of the girls. Parker had a great time with Grandma, Grandma says he is a mellow baby ;)
Found her cubby!
I am so thankful to have my amazing mom and wonderful bosses who are allowing me to go back to work 3 days a week. I am lucky to get the best of both worlds, I love my kids, and I love my job!

3 Months!

Parker is 3 Months old!
Such a HAPPY ADORABLE BABY!
He Loves: Playing Patty cake, kicking and grabbing his toys in his playgym, chewing on his fingers, "talking" to us, rolling on his side (almost rolling over!), and drooling1sts: giggle,Daddy's softball game, Oakland Firefighter stickball game, Meeting Uncle Mark and Auntie Karla and cousins Myla and Eli, Camping trip to Tahoe & my first 3 days of staying at Grandma's while Mommy went back to work!!
Parker is such a chill baby during the day! Loves to be held and is a catnapper! Still has fussy moments in the late evening but is getting better and his bed time is gradually getting earlier and earlier! He is still in size 1 diapers and mostly 3 months clothes, some 3-6. The past few days he has been eating a lot more often, growth spurt coming?

Cousins and Camping

Karl's brother and his family came for a visit! They live in Arizona and it was the first time we got to meet our niece Myla who was born on Christmas eve and the first time Parker got to meet his Auntie, Uncle and cousins!
Uncle Karl and Myla, color coordinated!
Parker with his cousin EliParker and Uncle Mark
The girls had fun visiting with their cousins!
That weekend we went CAMPING!
This year we went to Fallen Leaf lake in Tahoe
Paige looks excited!
With Parker being so young we decided to take Karl's parents motor home.We got in to town a day before everyone else so after we got settled in our campsite we drove over to Tahoe for dinner. We had a beautiful dinner at Riva Grill on the water.

Payton had a long day, she got car sick on the way up. She fell asleep at dinner poor thing!
Parker's first camping trip!Friday Fun at the Beach!
Parker did NOT like the waterThat night we hosted dinner at our site since our friends had just got into town, after dinner was SMORES!Or in Paige's case, marshmallows!
Paige and Levi roasting them up!The girls had so much fun with Levi, he just turned 2 and is such a sweet guy!
Of course, Paige and DIRT!
I know when you camp you get dirty but Paige practically rolls in it and pours it on herself!
Another day at the beach

Baby toesAfter the beach we went to Camp Richardson for ice cream!
Parker just hanging out, wishing he could have some yummy ice cream too!That night we went to the Jower/Jacinto camp site for dinner. The kids played charades, it was too cute!The girls with Levi and my good friend Gina's kids (she couldn't be there because she just had a baby boy so her husband brought all the kids to give her a little break;)

What a fun trip! Cant wait for next year!

2 Months

Parker Boo is 2 months old!
11lbs 1 oz
22 inches long
Size 3 months clothes
Size 1 Diapers
He is smiling and Cooing all the time now! He loves his play gym, "talks" to his toys and kicks at them to get them to make noise. He also discovered himself in the little mirror.
Parker is still fussy in the late evenings but it is getting better and he is going down for the night a little earlier. Most nights he sleeps from 9:30ish to 4am ish. He wakes up smiles and practically giggles at our ceiling fan, Eats and goes back to sleep until 6:30, eats and takes another big nap.
He loves being outside and looks up at the trees and watches his crazy sisters run around. He is such a sweet mellow boy for the most part, only fussing if he needs something! I cant believe how much he is changing every day!
Oh and his hair is finally long enough it will stay down now!

1 Month!

Parker is 1 month!
He Is wearing 0-3 months clothes, only a few NB still
Size 1 Diapers
Parker loves to sleep! He is just starting to stay awake for longer stretches now. He has his fussy time from 8-10pm, I would like to blame it on gas/pooping issues but it is pretty consistent every night. He usually has a good 3-4 hour stretch of sleep the first half of the night, after that maybe every 1 1/2 to 2 hrs. Then another BIG stretch from 8-11ish. He LOVES sleeping on my chest and if I let him would do it all day long! He loves laying on the floor watching his sisters play and has recently started cooing and smiling at them. He LOVES our ceiling fan and headboard in our room. He just stares at it and smiles with his eyes! I remember both the girls doing the same thing! He loves bath time and has never fussed during it, I think it relaxes him.
He dislikes his car seat (when he is first put in it), I am convinced he doesn't like his bassinet either because he doesn't sleep the best in it. He wont take a Pacifier dispite my on going attempts! Which in the long run will be easier ;)
During his first month he has been to many parties, out to dinner, and even went to his first A's game on his one month birthday! He has been such a trooper through our active days!
Over all he is a good baby boy who brings us such joy! Definitely completes our family!
