Peyton's first soccer game...

A couple weeks ago Peyton had his first soccer game.  He was so excited to go and we were talking about it all morning, then we got there and it was really windy.  Peyton does not like the wind and I think he was a little nervous to play.  The second we started walking to the field he started crying so I went and got his jacket so he could put the hood on.

We had to bribe Peyton to kick the ball at least one time before he came off.

Doesn't he look so happy. :)

Jeff monkeying around.

 

This is what Peyton looked like most the game with Grammy.

Maybe next time will be better! :)

Peyton turned 4!!!

 I can't believe Peyton is 4 years old!  He was so excited for his birthday party, it's all he could talk about the whole day.  Peyton has so much family that loves him and gave him so many presents! Some things about Peyton when he turned 4:  he loves preschool and is very smart, he can count past twenty, he knows all the letters and their sounds, he loves playing outside.  Peyton has such a sweet heart and always tells people he loves them and gives them a hug.  I am so grateful he is he is my son.

Valentines Day

We had a pretty low key Valentines Day but it was fun. I surprised Jeff and the kids with some cards on the doorstep and Jeff gave me some chocolates and a card.  We made heart shaped pizzas for dinner and then delivered valentines cards to the Grandparents.

Cute Kiddos!

These are a few pictures of us goofing around one day a couple weeks ago.  Peyton learned the letter "P" in preschool and he came home wearing a pirate costume Miss Traci gave to all the kids. He loved it!

Miles loves to do downward dog!  Peyton think it hilarious when he does it. :)

Miles' 1st Birthday!

Miles had such a great 1st birthday!  We have so much family that loves him and came to celebrate with us!  Miles is such a joy to have in our lives, he is so patient, loving and happy.  I can't believe it's been a year since he was born.  We love you so much Miles!!!!

A little timid at first...

Mmmmm.....this is good.

Do you want some?

Too bad!  It's all mine!!!!!

Peyton was jealous that Miles was having all the fun so he decided to join him.
