February

We either didn't have much going on in February or I just didn't have the camera out but here are some pictures from February. I know I have been horrible updating the blog but I just can't seem to find the time to sit down do it. I will try to do at least an update at the end of each month so you guys know what the kids have been doing.



This is Tyler and Mommy's best friend. He loves to play in here and it gives me a free hand. Tyler can't sit up by himself yet so this is a must needed item in our house.

Hayley loves to help me fold clothes. It is so cute and she is actually getting pretty good.

Here is example of how Hayley loves to dress herself. Note the cowboy boots!

Happy Valentines Day!


Peyton loves playing on the iPad. I thought this picture was so cute. Hayley is trying to cuddle and Peyton is determined to keep playing. (Yes, we still have the passy. She is so attached and I am not ready for the battle.)

Pictures

One of my best friends from college came into town to hang out with us for a week. We had so much fun getting to spend time with her and her son, Micah. Micah got sick while he was here but he was such a trooper. By far the sweetest baby ever. Kimber took some pictures of my kids for me while she was visiting. She is super awesome and was so sweet to do this for us. Enjoy!

Update

Here are some of the latest pictures of our gang.


Peyton loves Scooby Doo and usually gets to watch it during Hayley's nap. He loves for Tyler to lay down next to him and watch it with him. It is really cute seeing him enjoy his baby brother.

Tyler has some smoldering faces. It is precious!

We had high hopes for the Aggies in their bowl game. The game was horrible but we had a blast with our friends.

The Gunther's came over for the game. Here is Avery holding Tyler.

Peyton and Avery thought it was awesome to stay up late and watch the game with us while their little sisters went to bed. They were so cute.

Another day of Scooby Doo. It is amazing how Tyler loves T.V. (I promise I don't really let him watch for very long)

Peyton had show and tell at school and brought his new toy that he bought with his Christmas money. Here is a video of him telling me all about it. You might have to turn up your volume. He is talking pretty low.



Tyler is really growing and getting stronger every day. He has a big week of meeting some fun new toys instead of just his swing.


Tyler's first time in the Bumbo.

Tyler's first time in is bouncer. I'm not sure who was more excited Tyler or Peyton and Hayley.

Christmas

This is so late but my days are getting busier and busier with all three kids now that Tyler pretty much takes two naps now. I can't believe he is already 4 months old. Wow how time flies. Here is a recap of our Christmas.

My parents and my brother and his family came in the week before Christmas. We had so much fun having all the kids together. There were 6 kids in one house so it was crazy but the kids had the best time playing together.


My niece and Hayley did their nails. They were Hayley's first set of press on nails. They didn't last long but she loved them.
Everyone one had so much fun decorating gingerbread men cookies for Santa.

Cookies for Santa

The kids and all their loot.

The kids were so excited to see what Santa had brought them.

Baby Tyler and his stocking. It was bigger than he was :)

Peyton was so cute in his new hat and gloves. He was really sick over Chrismtas so it was great to see some smiles out of him.


Hayley got Baby All Gone from Peyton. It was her favorite present. She was so excited.

Christmas Time

To start out our holidays we went to visit Santa. I thought it was going to go great. The kids were so excited to tell him what they wanted for Christmas. Hayley walked right up and told him what she wanted (a tinkerbell camera) but when it came to sitting on his lap she started screaming. They let me hold her on my lap for the picture but she was not happy.
I don't have our scanner hooked up so I tried to take a picture of our Santa picture. I apologize for it looking like this but I think it is hilarious that Tyler is the only one smiling in our picture. Peyton looks like Santa might attack at any moment. I think he was freaked out that Hayley was screaming like Santa was killing her.

Peyton and Avery waiting to see Santa. They are just to cute!

Avery and Hayley would pose for the camera.

Watching the fun shows while the Moms do some shopping.

We had a Christmas Party at the club in our neighborhood. Peyton got his face painted like Spiderman. He was so excited and wouldn't let us wash it off until the next afternoon.

We had Christmas with Mimi and Papa and Great Grandma and Grandpa from Dallas and Uncle John, and of course Uncle Andrew and Aunt Lacy this weekend. The kids had a blast opening their first set of presents and it was so nice to spend time with everyone.

Hayley got this cute kitty cat that purrs when you rub its back. She loves it.

Each year we have a white elephant gift exchange and this is what Uncle Andrew got. I had to take a picture!

Here is Great Grandpa with his gift. Peyton thought this was hilarious!


Last year we started the tradition of making gingerbread houses with the Gunther girls. Everyone had so much fun. More candy was eaten than put on the houses but they turned out cute and was so much fun to watch them decorate.

Peyton and Hayley's gingerbread houses!



We did a game exchange with the Gunther girls. We got a really cool ladybug game and a polar bear letter game. You fish for the letters and spell different words. It is a really awesome game. I love it and so does Peyton.

Thank you hugs!
