Arrgh Matey's!

Parker had a BLAST on Halloween! Once he got a treat from the first house that was it! Trick or Treat is all we heard! This year was easy on the treats as we only went to about 10 houses and we didn't get lots of candy and he's too young to know about candy yet. He did enjoy some chips - which are low in carbs for a treat! Lots of fun going out with his little friends Teagan (bee) and Siena (Pooh)! Hope you all had a happy Halloween!

Bad Bloggers - New pictures

Hello Family and Friends!

Sorry for such a long time since we've posted some pictures. As most of you know, it's been a busy and rough couple of months. For those of you who don't know, Parker was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes (click here for more info) on September 10th. Parker started to drink excessively about a week prior and with some knowledge from one of Corey's co-workers who have a little girl (Teagan) who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes last year, Corey brought him to the walk in and with one simple blood prick with a glucose meter and a reading of 21.8 the doctor knew right away. So we went to the Peterborough hospital for a few days to learn how to administer insulin, do readings and learn about carb counting. We were lucky that we caught it very early so he didn't have to go on an iv. He has been doing very well. We are still all over the map with his numbers (want 6-12 mmol/L). We have had a few lows (under 6) which is very scary and alot of highs. I feel like we are on a teeter-totter most days! So anyway...... Thank you to everyone for your support! We appreciate it! Enjoy these pictures. They are from a trip to Algonquin Park with Corey in October and one night in the tub! Love how he wants to wear his fireman's hat!

'been busy with dad

Daddy Pie here - I have watched Parker for a couple of days in the past week and we have had a ton-o-fun! He really loves the chance to get outside and go exploring with no fear of the water. It rained all day today(Canada Day) so we had our adventures inside... he really knows how to keep busy!

Happy Father's Day Daddy

Happy Father's Day Daddy! Love you!

Rainy Day Walk

Just some more pictures from this morning. Corey and Parker went to Buttermilk Falls for a walk and then out in a field. Parker didn't like walking through the tall grass at first but enjoyed it once he figured out that he could move the grass. Growing too fast, talking alot more and becoming such a sweet little boy!

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!

Yup! I finally went pee-pee on the potty! I was SOOOOO proud. It was on the 21st, just woke up from my nap at Jenni's (daycare) and I sat on the potty. Jenni asked me if I was done, I said yup, then stood up and there it was! I was so excited to flush it down the toilet and I got a sticker to wear on my shirt that read 'You did it!'! When mommy came and picked me up she was SOOOOOO happy and proud! Daddy was pretty proud too and when I saw him I smilled ear to ear when he asked me if I went peepee on the potty! This picture is an old one but you get the idea! One step closer to diaper free!

Goofy Face

Having Fun!
