Wings Over Columbus


With Will's friend "NUKE" who is a Thunderbird pilot

I think Will told Weston about UAVs.
Weston: "But I want to fly F16s when I grow up"

Not sure what it is, but it is really cute!
After a very busy weekend, we went to the Columbus air show on Sunday after church. We almost skipped it because we were so tired, but it was well worth the trip. Weston enjoyed looking at all the "panes", and Will got to see his friend John "NUKE" Gallemore. Will & John were T-37 instructors together at Columbus years ago, and they both went on to fly F-16s in Phoenix, AZ for a little while. I think it has been 5 years since we last saw the Gallemores. They are stationed in Las Vegas now.

Abby, Kim, and Noah met up with us in Orange Beach two weeks ago. We had fun getting our boys together, and catching up before Evie Kate and Connor get here in August and September! We had a girls' trip for the first few days, and then Will flew a jet down to the Pensacola Navy base, where we picked him up for the weekend.
We have decided on a name for Weston's little brother...Connor Calloway Parrott. He is named after my dad's grandfather. We can't wait to meet our little Connor!

Winter Rewind (Can we fast forward to Spring?)


Weston shared BIG news with my parents
on my 30th birthday!

Santa spoiled Weston!

Christmas morning
Our new stockings...we'll have 4 next year!!

My cute little man

Opening presents!

I made sugar cookies for Weston's class party



We made a gingerbread house

Weston watched the parade intently
Okay, so let's rewind a little....There has been a sick cloud around the Parrott household. Weston has had every illness in the book over the past 2 months, bilateral ear infections, roseola, pneumonia, pharyngitis, and an allergic reaction to an antibiotic. The boy has been a walking antibiotic for at least 6 weeks now. We were prescribed a new one today, when he was diagnosed with yet another bilateral ear infection! We are getting tubes ASAP. We have a consult with our ENT on Tuesday. So, maybe our little sick cloud will be lifted soon!
I'm 13 weeks pregnant now, and my energy is coming back (hence, the blog update!). We will find out what gender we are having on April 12th. I can't wait!
Will has been hard at work for Edward Jones as a Financial Advisor. He took over an office in town recently, and is doing a great job taking care of his clients.
I can't wait for warmer weather and Spring to get here. It would be nice to take Weston outside and play for a change.

November


Over Thanksgiving holidays, I went to see the Rockettes in Memphis with some of my girlfriends. It was such a fun, much needed girls' night!

One of my best friends, Rachel Rae, tied the knot in November. Her hubby, Dustin, is an F-18 Superhornet pilot for the Navy. They are currently living in California.

These adorable aprons were specially
