Some Easter Photos!

Belated Easter photos for you!

Once Daddy showed her that there were exciting freeze-dried bananas inside one of the eggs, she wasn't very interested in finding the rest of them!  She did, however, very much enjoy playing with the packet of cheddar bunnies she got and she really likes the little garden rake and spade the bunny brought.

The Easter bunny brought Daddy some Cadbury creme eggs and Mommy some fancy truffles, so we were all happy. 

Christmas in Dallas — Part 2

This is my favorite photo I took the entire holiday, and I snapped it with my iPod while they sat swinging on the porch.

I realize it's WAY past Christmas, but I wanted to post the last of these photos from our trip!

On New Year's Eve, we got a BIG surprise—Aunt Emily, Uncle Matt and Cousin Grey came out to meet us.  Uncle Matt was pretty smitten with Dev, and I think the feeling was mutual.  So glad you guys finally got to meet!

Grey could show Devyn a thing or two about opening presents. After this Christmas, he's a pro!

Pop and Grey have very similar taste in hats.

We had a wonderful time, both in Dallas and in Santa Fe.  Thank you thank you a million times to everyone who helped make it so special.  It will definitely be a Christmas we won't forget.

Christmas in Dallas—Part 1

After Santa Fe, we flew to Dallas for a few days to celebrate with my family there.

Devyn was pretty good on the flight out, but we were all excited to be landed and settled in Dallas.

She got to open some presents here, too, including a cool walker thing from Poppy and Mickey!

She doesn't really get opening presents yet, but she sure likes the results! (You don't think she's spoiled, do you?) ;)

The next day, we got to spend some time with Great Grandma...

...and then the Niriders came to spend some time with all of us as well!

Devyn and Elliot got along REALLY well.  Elliot, you're welcome to come babysit ANY time you like!

More to come, including our New Year's surprise!

33 weeks, 2 days: It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Last weekend we got our Christmast tree and put up the decorations, and Devyn was excited to help.

That evening, we had a bath, and when Daddy gives the baths, he pays special attention to giving her cradle cap a good scrubbing.  This is the result: 

I think that might be one for the high school yearbook...
