Hunker Down

Well, We survived the eye of the storm and no TV!! Caleb decided that he knew how to hunker down during the storm. We actually had a pretty fun time playing to candlelight.
We jumped, wrestled and snuggled in our pile of soft stuff. Right now this is ALOT more fun than a tent. It is too tempting to just pull the tent down as it is being put up.

I love this picture! I can just see a future teenager in that same position and we will probably still have that chair too! Thanks Mike and Coleenie!

Here is our sweet girl who is 8 1/2 mo old and has perfected crawling in 2 days. She took her first crawling steps on Wed and crawled to Caleb across the living room today. I am glad everything is still crawler proof. We had to lower the crib last night. I am glad we did because I found her standing up after her nap today. It is going by too fast!

First day of school

What a big boy!! Monday was Caleb's first day of school(mothers day out). He goes two days a week from 9:00-2:30. So far, he is not ready to leave when we come to pick him up. I guess that is a good thing. I can't believe how fast it flies by.

Thank you God for the blessing of children and the time that we get to spend with them. Please help me to not take this precious time for granted.

Fun Together!

I love this picture. We always have to have close togetherness. I love it! Here are a few fun in the yard pictures. Caleb likes to be sure that Peyton is having as much fun as she can stand. She takes it pretty well.

Just thought that we needed some new pics up of our beautiful children. I am so excited because the time is coming when Caleb and Peyton can play together and entertain each other. I am sooooo excited about that. At least right now they play side by side very well. I am so blessed!

You will notice that most of the pics of them both smiling and looking at the camara are of the same background. This is the only way Caleb will be still long enough to say CHEESE.

Beautiful Girl!

Following in Dad's footsteps!

Team Mexico

We were so excited for Dad to come home from Mexico because he always brings presents! Here they are showing off their matching Mexican soccer jerseys AND new light up tennis shoes!

Peyton also started on her first tastes of baby food. We had to get her good first messy picture. Those sweet potatoes ARE as good as they look!

As I suspected...

As I suspected, I am a terrible blogger. When I get a little time to myself, I don't usually want to get on the computer. I will try to do better. Peyton just turned 6 months old is doing very well. She was 14 lbs 14ounces and 26 1/2 in. Small and slim. What a surprise!

Thanks Aunt Sarah and cousin Brittany for the CUTE dress.

Caleb continues to learn that you can't look behind you while you run full speed ahead. This is a

very hard lesson to learn. You also have to be careful while on stairs because you can bust your lip and get it caught between your teeth! OUCH! It was a very eventful Wed. night at church!

4 months old

Peyton is 4 months old and as sweet as she can be! At our MD appt. she was 12 lbs 13 oz and 23 3/4 in. She has turned over a couple of times but is still trying to get the hang of it. She loves to babble and sing and is taking the accidental bumps and knocks to the head very well.

We can't have a photo shoot without big brother!

There are still lots of kisses to go with the bumps to the head. I love how she is getting ready for all the love!

This picture is a little blurry, but I love that Caleb is really perfecting his big "CHEESE" smile!
