Dinosaur Park

Last week my parents came into town and we all took the kids to a dinosaur park in Cedar Creek. It was really fun and just great to be outside in this awesome weather. Here is a link if anyone is interested in visiting. http://www.thedinopark.com/


The kids had a blast and Peyton loved seeing all the dinosaurs. They also had a scavenger hunt where along the trail they had hidden things you had to find. It was a great family trip!!

Peyton and Hayley at the beginning of the trail. They thought this was hilarious!
Daddy and Hayley. She did not want to be carried but was a little slow on the trail.

Peyton and Hayley taking a water break :) They have been so cute lately. They are really starting to enjoy playing together.

Peyton roaring with his favorite dinoosaur, the T-Rex!

After we left the park we went to the Domain for lunch and the kids enjoyed playing in the water and siting in the butterfly chairs.

Baby Number 3

It has been forever since I have posted so I want to apologize for lack of pictures and updates on our kiddos. I have been slacking.

As many of you know we are now expecting baby #3. I am 12 weeks pregnant and due September 16th. We are excited and I am starting to feel better and get more energy. I promise to take some pictures of Peyton and Hayley this next week and post them. They are both gettins o big. Next week is Peyton's spring break and my parents are coming into town and we are going to SeaWorld so we should have some good pics.

Please say some prayers for our growing family :)

Stomach Bug :(

The kids woke up last night with a stomach bug. Hayley worse than Peyton but both are feeling better today. We are watching movies, drinking Pedialite, and eating crackers. They seem to be happy.

Christmas

I know this is really really late but I guess better late than never. I can't believe it is already 2010 and I haven't gotten over Christmas yet. Anyways, here are some pictures of our holidays. We had a blast this year. Peyton really got "Santa" this year and it was so fun to experience it with him.

Peyton and Avery making Gingerbread houses. Peyton pretty much ate the whole time :)

Hayley with her purse and her "I Love Santa" shirt. (By the way she did not love Santa).


We took the kiddos to see the Trail of Lights this year with some friends. Peyton had a blast seeing all of the lights. It was fun!


Peyton with the dinosaurs. Roar!

Mark and I stayed up late late late setting up for Christmas morning. We finally found out what it was like to put together toys on Christmas Eve.


Peyton loved loved loved his train set. It was so much fun to see him come down the stairs and see the surprise on his face.

Snow

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.

Happy 3rd Birthday Peyton

I can not believe that Peyton is 3. It has gone by so fast and he has gotten so big. This year we had his party at a bouncy place. If you know Peyton this is one of his favorite places to go. I wish I could have gotten him on video tape when first ran in the place but I was chasing after him so there was no camera catching the sheer joy on his face. He had a blast. Thank you everyone for coming and bouncing around with us :)

Daddy and Peyton

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 :)

Peyton loved our decorations this year.


Hayley not so much. She was terrified of the witch.

She did great riding around the neighborhood.

We had a great Halloween and Peyton says he can't wait till next year!
