christmas.

merry christmas everyone!

we hope you all had a wonderful christmas!

we had a great couple of days :)

monday evening, allysha, andy and lincoln arrived! tuesday morning brandon went into work for a few hours while the rest of us ate breakfast, prepped for christmas eve, went to the park and played!

tuesday afternoon was full of celebrating! we had the C's, the other McG's family over...we had four babies ranging from 2 months to 16! it was a bot crazy but lots of fun!

it was great to see everyone, eat good food, watch the littles run around, and celebrate the birth of our savior.

we then headed to the christmas eve service.

always so beautiful to sing in the candle lite!

we then came home, parker went to bed while the rest of us (except lincoln) enjoyed shrimp cocktail, steak, salad and christmas cheer!

christmas morning we all slept in til about 8. brandon got up and started making a yummy egg casserole. we all hung out, had parker open his gifts....it took a long time!

it was fun to share the holiday with family :)

our little tree!

not sure about the tearing of paper

books!

cousin pictures...

poor lincoln

christmas morning! parker was concern about lincoln touching the tree because its a "hands off" zone

helping bounce ;)

see and say!

still not sure about ripping...

jumping on boxes...soo fun!

go pack go!

new toy! animals! hooray!

one of many attempts to get a good picture...what a stinker :)

a day in the life of us @ 15 months

i haven't done one of these in a while and life is different yet the same :)

thought it would be good to document before it changes again!
(i had this done a couple of weeks ago and forgot to hit post!)

9:15am wake up...yes parker and i are lazy. i am just enjoying it while it lasts (I know it will end soon...either he'll start waking up earlier or in may it will change!)

9:30- breakfast and milk. parker ate pumpkin spice muffins. i made a smoothie (which we shared) then eggs...

10- run around and play. i clean up

11- we got ready to head out for a walk and playing at the park

it was wet! lite drizzle but parker and his buddy were all over running around!

12:45- home for lunch

1:20- upstairs for a nap (a little later than normal due to sleeping in late)

1:30- worktime!

4:15 wake parker up from nap (he would sleep longer if we let him!)

4:45 dad's home! playtime!

5pm on...dinner, running around, playing, reading books,
bathtime and bed :)
