December Craziness

I love December. It is definitely one of my favorite times of the year. This December was especially great because we have Peyton to share everything with. Kris and I tried not to go crazy and buy her everything, but it was hard. I have to be careful when I go into Carters, Baby Gap, The Children’s Place, etc. because it’s very easy to spend money in those stores. Everything is just so cute!

We had a nice Christmas. Of course Peyton would have been happy with just playing with the wrapping paper, but it was fun watching her play with her presents too. It was nice visiting with family.

Another reason why I love December so much is because it is my birthday month. This year we went all out and celebrated my birthday by getting a suite at The Hotel by Mandalay Bay and tickets to The Lion King. The show was amazing. I would recommend it to everyone.
December 2009 was great, hello 2010!

My Growing Girl

She just keeps getting bigger and bigger! I wish it wouldn't go so fast.

Thanksgiving Madness

Thanksgiving was a blast this year. Everyone was able to come home! All five sisters, Florence, Kathy, Amy, Melanie, and me, and my brother Jonathan. All our spouses were here, and all our kids. For a grand total of 27 people all at Mom and Dad's house.
The sister's had their traditional Sister's Challenge. Melaine was the big winner this year. Some of us got to go and see New Moon. It was really good! We rode quads and the Rino. Over all we had lots and lots of food and fun!!

Trick or Treating...

Peyton had lots of fun going trick or treating with her mommy and grandmothers. She got a lot of candy which I was very happy about. She looked so adorable in her cat costume (thanks grandma Carle). Lots of fun, what will I get to do with her next? I really love this whole mom thing.

So cute!

Sleeping Beauty

This is how we have been finding Peyton in her crib. Can it be comfortable?

First Cereal

Peyton is having lots of fun trying out new foods. This week she is trying pears. It's so fun to watch her change and grow. She can roll over all the way now, and is picking up her toys. Lots of fun. Here are a couple more pictures of the baby.
