Christmas Morning

We can't start without our unattractive morning pictures of the kids...

Okay, now Christmas morning can begin!

Parker's keeping an eye on the Dev... he knows she's dubbed herself as taste-tester of the family and he wants to keep his present from being licked!

Parker's excited face at getting a Buzz Lightyear for Christmas.

Devri's turn... here she is, testing out the wrapping to make sure it's safe for people to eat.

Stocking time... Parker giving his usual cheesy smile while not looking at the camera

I'm sure you know what Devri is thinking in this one from what I explained about her before!

Now that it's close enough...

Let the licking begin!

That about sums up Christmas at our house.

We opened presents at Greg's parents' the night before and my parents' Christmas morning after our own unwrapping. We got lots of fun toys and gifts and we are SO grateful for everything. Thank you so much!

Merry Christmas!!!!!!

Who likes chocolate?

What on earth are we going to do with a boy who is obsessed with chocolate?

I just have one thing to say... I was not home when this happened. Where was Greg you might ask? Let me give you a hint: the BYU game was on...

Greg Nelson, CPA

Need I say more?.... Woohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Stauffer Blood

This kid can fall asleep anywhere doing anything... more proof that he's part Stauffer! Just the other day, I found Parker asleep on the couch with his face buried between two cushions... how does he breathe?! :)

Ladies' Limo & Lights Night

Becky, Cathy, my mom, and I went out for a fun girls' night out in a limo (thanks Becky!). We drove around several towns drinking sparkling cider, looking at Christmas lights, and being just plain silly! Becky has most of the pics on her camera, but here are the couple I managed to get. It was a super fun night.

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

Just wanted to say that our little girl is rolling ALL the time now! She's been trying the last week to master it and yesterday she figured it out! Now she just won't stop! I'm happy for her, but now I have to keep a closer eye on her because she gets stuck on her tummy with her face in a blanket when she gets tired of holding her neck up. I checked my journals and realized that Parker still hadn't rolled over when he was five months old and Devri is only four months old! Must have been that big head of his... :)

Our little Devri is determined to move. I think she wants to be just like her big brother. It is amazing how much she already loves him. She is always staring and smiling at him every opportunity she gets. Last night she was giggling like crazy at him and I caught a small piece of it on tape. I'm sure I'll get that on here eventually. It's just sweet to see the two of them interact. Parker is always concerned about her... he lets me know when she is crying, when she rolls over, etc. I couldn't be happier with my two kids.

Devry and Devri

Probably not the best picture of my Devri, but I had to show you all where we got her name. The sweet girl holding her is where we first heard the name Devry. The only difference is that she is Devry with a "y" and ours is Devri with an "i."

Santa Claus came to Greg's work and Parker was excited to meet him, right up until he actually had to meet him... then it was a no go.

Officially Four Months

Devri hit four months on Monday, which means one thing in our family... time for another video! With Parker, we made videos for his birth, 0 to 4 month, 4 to 8 month, and 8 to 12 month milestones. This one is Devri's 0 to 4 month video. Enjoy!
