We had playgroup this morning at one of our good friend's houses. The kids had a lot of fun making ornaments and an even better time playing in the snow. Yes, I did say snow. Not enough snow to stick to the ground but they had a blast just seeing it fall from the sky. Hayley thought it was just hilarious.

Yes, we had another Toy Story cake. Isn't it awesome though? (it was so yummy thanks to Sugarbaker's Bake Shop). 
Peyton passed out on the way home. What a fun birthday party!Happy Halloween
I know it is late but here are some pictures from Halloween. We had a blast this year and Peyton was a great trick or treater. He loved seeing all the scary stuff and especially getting all the candy. Hayley just had fun riding around in the wagon. Peyton's school had a Halloween parade. The kids were so cute and they even sang some Halloween songs for us. Peyton's favorite was something to do with a creepy crawling spider :)

She did great riding around the neighborhood.
We had a great Halloween and Peyton says he can't wait till next year!Wednesday, October 28, 2009
Hayley's Birthday Party
Hayley had a great 1st Birthday party at our house. She got lots of fun presents and loved having everyone there. Thanks to everyone who came and made her special day very fun!
Peyton made Hayley a special present. He was so excited to give it to her. He named it Cloey. Hayley loved it. It was so cute!!
Kisses for the kitty cat. 
Hayley got a baby stroller and a baby for her birthday. She loved them. She kept trying to take a ride in the stroller but now she has the hang of it and pushes it all over the house. It is one of the things she will walk to.
Hayley with all of her awesome presents!
Mark put together a playscape for our backyard. The kids love it!
Hayley loves to swing.
I made these cupcakes for the party favors. I thought they turned out so cute I had to share a picture of them.

Birthday Fun
The weather is awesome today. What a great day to have a birthday. We went with some playgroup friends to the park today. The kids had a great time and Hayley just kept showing me how big she is getting. What a difference one year makes.
Hayley last year right after she was born.
Here is our birthday girl. One year old!!
Kaitlin, Tae, Peyton, and Hayley riding on the purple dinosaur.
Peyton had a blast pushing Hayley on the swing.
This is the first time that Hayley really enjoyed swinging. She loved it!
Trying to climb up the slide was fun also.
Wow, she has grown up so fast. It makes me kinda sad :( Happy Birthday Hayley!!!
My little girl is one today. I cannot believe it. This year has flown by. She is growing up before our eyes. Our photographer just finished getting her Favorites page up! To get to it, just click on the following link: http://www.robinwinklesphotography.com/Favorites/hayley.htm.

11 Months Old
It is hard to believe but Hayley is almost a year old. My baby girl is growing up. We have had a tough week around here. Peyton was sick and now Hayley has it. We took our first trip to the ER this weekend with Hayley. Thank God she is fine but she was having trouble breathing. Her doctor said it is croup and it is causing her to wheeze pretty bad. We are doing breathing treatments and she is on a steroid. They said this will make her pretty grumpy but she should be feeling better soon. No fun! Just an update from our casa!

September Update
My sister in law called me last night and scolded me for my lack of posting. So, here is a catch up on what we have been up to.
Our playgroup took the kids to a bouncy place after all the big kids were back in school. They had so much fun. This was Hayley's first time. She loved it at first till I put her down a slide. She wouldn't let go of me after that.
Here she is at the top of the slide. She was so excited until she came down. I don't have a picture of afterwards she was terrified. Poor baby :(
Peyton coming down the slide. These places are one of Peyton's favorite places to go. He is a wild man.
As everyone knows Hayley loves to eat. Which is completely opposite of Peyton. She gets so so messy after every meal. Sometimes I wish I could just hose her down.
In Austin we have these cow statues which all of the kids love to climb on. Jessica and I took our kids to play and tried to get some pictures.
I have been watching one of my friend's little boys on Wednesdays. Little Michael is so much fun. He loves hanging out with Peyton. It is so cute to watch them play together. I had all the kids finger paint last week. Michael and Peyton loved it. Hayley just tried to eat the paint so maybe we will wait a little longer for her to paint again.
Peyton finger painting.
Little Michael was so clean after finger painting. I'm not sure what is wrong with my children. I guess they are more into body painting.
Peyton and Hayley on our way to meet his teacher before school starts. Peyton will be going to school twice a week this year. He has been asking to go every day. This year he has two of his friends from playgroup in his class. They love it!
He loved his classroom.
Peyton and his teacher Mrs. Robin. So far he has had a blast at school and I love his teacher this year.
Hayley loves her passy. It sort of worries me because I don't know how I am ever going to get rid of it. She found three of them in the cabinet and wouldn't let go of them.
Peyton on his way to school on his first day.
This is Hayley's favorite thing to do in our house at the moment. I pick up these cups and plates about 10 times a day. I keep saying we need a lock on this cabinet but it will entertain her for about 20 minutes while I am cooking dinner.
Fantasy Football has officially started. This is what our house will look like for next 6 months. You have to have your laptop out while watching the games.
