So... I think I take MORE photos on my phone than I do with my other cameras. And I might even hold a record for how many pictures I have on my phone. As of today, Easter Sunday, I have 1895 photos & 139 videos= 2034 all together. 95% of them of Keller. A bit ridiculous you say? Nah... just look at the ones below, you would do the same thing! I guess its safe to say, I am obsessed with my child.

this is why we love {SCOTTY MAN!}

So... I got an email from my sister in law this morning about my nephew Scotty... this is what it said...

"This morning while Scotty was eating his bowl of eggs before pre-school, he started telling me about Jesus. So I grabbed a piece of paper and started writing down what he was saying. You gotta love kids! He said:

"Mom, Jesus died because of the Nephites. They put his body in a dark cave and rolled a big rock in front. It was very dark. They nailed him to a chair. They don't like nice people like Jesus who leaves scriptures for us. Jesus is back alive in heaven with his Dad. He showed his mom and dad he had nails in his hands. They took the nails out really carefully so it won't hurt."

Oh, I miss this kid! I could go on and on about the funny things he says. Like the other day he asked me over the phone, "Aunt Steph, is baby "Deller" getting chubby yet?" I said, "Oh yeah, so chubby! Is baby Camille (his little sister) getting chubby yet?" scotty: "Noooo aunt Steph, just fluffy!"
One time I was babysitting him and asked him what he wanted for breakfast, he said "Um, rootbeer, pizza and cheese!" He LOVES food and will eat just about anything, he LOVES meat! haha Oh man, he kills me. And he is defiantly named after the right man. My dad and him are so much alike, its scary! Scotty loves to make food, especially tacos. When he is finished making your taco he yells, "Order up! Order up! Order up!" I was afraid he would forget about me when we moved to Texas. But my brother tells me that he would pray for Aunt Steph and Uncle Colby in "Chexas!!" It breaks my heart when I am on the phone with him and he asks me when I am coming over to his house. Gosh, the thing I miss most about Utah is my nephews! They are so much fun to be around...

A Name & a Blessing...

We were so lucky to go back home to Utah for Keller to meet all his friends, cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents! He was a big hit in Utah! We were able to bless little Keller in my parents home on February 20, 2011. It was beautiful. It snowed that morning and the views from my parents new home are incredible... from the mountains, to the valley to the Great Salt Lake. It was such an amazing feeling to be home with our families and to see how much everyone just LOVED adored little Keller. I am so grateful for families, and the knowledge of knowing that our families can be together forever. I am so grateful for a sweet and loving, husband who is a worthy priesthood holder. Keller Colby Stringham was given a name and a blessing not only by his daddy here on earth, but also by our Father in Heaven. Keller brings such a sweet, spiritual feeling into our family and our home. He is always so happy and giggly. Colby and I can't imagine our lives with out him. We waited a long time for this baby boy! We just can't get enough of him! He is so squishy and lovable!
