Peyton is 3 (Well he has been for a while now!)

There is no true excuse for the delay in this blog. Peyton's Birthday was a month ago and I am just now getting around to this. Maybe I wanted to make sure this 3 thing was gonna stick.

This year his party was sponsored by the letter 3 and the number p, but other than that, there was no real theme or hoopla. Just a low key family get together. Luckily, it didn't rain and we were able to be outside. Our first b-day at our new
house, that is still weird. The kids could have spent all day just eating cookies and playing, but we made him open presents and sing Happy Birthday, otherwise we did just let them be this time. It was crazy to think of him as a three year old, I don't feel old enough to have a three year old, and Peyton doesn't always act that old. He had a great time playing with his cousins and his new toys, though. Unfortunately, he got a bunch of great outdoor toys and it has rained almost every day since, so he hasn't been able to enjoy them much since. Thanks to everyone who came, and good luck to us on the next year!


I swear this is Peyton's favorite place to hang out. Jesse hates it when the kids get on here, though.

Peyton's cake wasn't too fancy this year, just cupcakes, but we did have some trouble lighting it with the wind.

After all the Birthdays he's been too, Peyton is really getting the hang of the blowing out the candles thing. He loves to do it at others' birthdays as well.

P and Izzy enjoying the cupcakes. At first P was just licking the frosting off the top of his. He quickly learned that is the best part of cakes, cookies, doughnuts. What a smart kid!

We tried to make him sit down and do presents, but he still wasn't totally into it. Everytime he opened one he would want to go play with it, which I can't blame him for. We eventually got him to rip through all of them, though.

The kids all liked taking turns riding in the red wagon that we got Peyton. I just love Madison and Izzy's smiles.

Peyton's cousin Brynlee and her huge flower, I just love it, that is why you have girls!

Once Brady got up the babies all had a binky war. It was the cutest thing ever. Parker had size over the other two, but Brynlee was quite fiesty. In the end, Brady did wind up with one, not his but he got one.

Peyton was trying to ride his lawn mower, I just don't know what to say about it.

I don't know if you remember the picture from Peyton's picture Birthday last year, but I had all the pregnant ladies there pose and this year we were all there again, so we posed with our babies. From left to right is Raya with Brynlee, Me with Brady, Heidi with Kannon, and Erica with Parker.
