Park's First Trip to Waycross!

We traveled to Waycross for the weekend on Friday and had such a fun time! The Parkster and the Griffster got to meet again after more than a month of not seeing each other! They are so cute together. Griffin and Parker are cousins who are 4 weeks apart - so excited to see them as they grow up. How neat to have a cousin so close in age... I can only imagine what CHAOS our lives with be when Park and Griff are 2 years old and running ALL over Mimi and Papa's house! YIKES! Here are some precious pix of the two sweeties!
Parker - 11 weeks and Griffin - 15 weeks.

Park took a nice long nap on Uncle Jeffrey's chest :)

Parker sleeping on Uncle Jeffrey - I think Camo was a LITTLE jealous! The entire weekend - we never got a picture of all 3 Hull grandkids together. There was NEVER a time they were all awake and not eating or crying at the same time! Maybe next time! :)

Parker waking up from a nap - not so happy about that...
Jeff and his son - Griffin

Our family hanging out in the Hull's backyard pool... you can see Parker just LOVED it... right.

My dear friends, Heather and Laura, came to visit us on Saturday! We all have a pretty crazy/special bond... First of all - we have all known each other since the 3rd grade... so that's pretty special in itself. But... our other bond... a little different. Laura and I were both bridesmaids in Heather's wedding back in September 2001. Well - the night before the wedding, I was driving us all to get some dessert at Applebee's - YUM! - and well - while turning into Applebee's, I turn right in front of an oncoming car and we got into a terrible wreck - completely my fault. I just remember looking back at Laura and I thought she was dead - oh my gosh - I still get chills when I think about it. So scary. Anyway - she was just blacked out from being hit straight on by a car. We all spent the night in the Waycross hospital and Laura was hurt so badly, she couldn't even be in Heather's wedding the next day! Ugh! What a crazy weekend - but we all will NEVER forget that night and we will NEVER forget each other! Love you girls!!!

Tuesday night, after our walk, I just happened to realize how HUGE Parker was! It's amazing how fast he's growing - it's so sad - and awesome! I also realized I hardly have any pictures of he and I together - since I'm always the photographer around here! So - I had Chris go grab my camera right before we were putting him to bed to get a few shots of us.
This kid is ALWAYS sticking out his tongue!

This picture below pretty much describes our ride home on Sunday.... lovely.... awesome.... I know.... I don't think we're traveling with Parker anymore until he's at least 16 years old... and he can drive himself! Oh my gosh - you don't even want to know what happened on our way home. After already stopping twice to change him and feed him - he decides to POOP. Not just a normal poop - E-X-P-L-O-S-I-O-N POOP! Yikes! It came out ALL ends of the diapers - top, bottom, left, right... nasty. Not only did it get all over him - his hands - his feet - his body... but it got down INTO the car seat, underneath it, on me, in the car, all over his seat belts, all over the buckles holding him in. That was a REAL fun stop. Yaaaay Parker. Traveling with you is so much fun. So - to say the least - our normal 3.5 hour trip to Waycross has now turned into a SEVEN hour trip. No thank you. TO ALL MY WONDERFUL FAMILY WHO LIVES IN WAYCROSS AND ANY WHERE THAT IS MORE THAN A DAY'S TRIP AWAY.... Chris and I have a LOVELY home in Cumming, Ga and you are all MORE than welcome to come stay with us ANY TIME. :) Love, Chris, Hillary and Parker the Pooper.

~~~Now to Papa Hull - you are the only one who would think a trip to Atlanta from Waycross counts as a "day trip" - so your opinion doesn't count. ~~~ :)
