Peyton's Smile

On November 3, Peyton gave me a couple of good smiles for the camera! Here he is...isn't he adorable?

Uncle Chris and Aunt Theresa's Visit

Uncle Chris and Aunt Theresa came up to visit us on Saturday. The boys had a lot of fun with them and even "cooked" Aunt Theresa some food outside on their grill while daddy was cooking on his BBQ pit. Daddy made awesome steaks and some yummy macaroni and cheese for all of us! He did very well and impressed us all! Uncle Chris did so great with little Peyton too and he even put him to sleep for us! Thank you for visiting us; we have to do it more often! We all enjoyed their visit and really liked the company!

Trick-or-Treat

Our 3 handsome boys!!!

This year we had Fireman Paul, Superman Preston,

and a baby Peyton Tigger!

We all had a lot of fun and the boys all looked so cute! Paul was so excited to be a fireman; he couldn't wait to get dressed and asked me about it all day! When people told the boys to pick what they wanted Preston couldn't seem to make up his mind! He'd take one and put it back and then take another one.....we had to say "ok take one and let's go!" Paw Paw pushed Peyton the whole time around the neighborhood and Maw Maw made sure he was warm and happy while keeping tabs on their dog who came along for the walk. Thank you so much Paw Paw and Maw Maw for helping us out and coming along to see the boys trick-or-treat!

Paul and Preston had a great time! They also really enjoyed their candy when we got home! We had a great night!

Pumpkin Patch

Paul had his pumpkin patch field trip with his school on Friday. Big Paul couldn't get off of work so luckily Charmaine's mom was going with her and they offered to help me. What a big help they were!!! I could not have gone without them!

Preston, Paul, and Nicholas

Paul and Preston

The boys had so much fun and there was plenty to do! Besides picking out each of their pumpkins and one for Peyton too, they got to "milk" a cow, get their faces painted, and play on all the fake animals! They also had a petting zoo there, where they pet a real cow, chickens, a pony, and much more!!! The boys had a really great time; it was a wonderful day for all of us!
Peyton was wonderful the entire time and only woke up to eat once! He slept through everything; I guess he is used to a lot of noise!!! Here he is with the cow statue!!!Thank you again Charmaine, and your mother too, I really do appreciate all the help you gave me!!!

Peyton's 1st Smile!

Peyton smiled for the first time on Thursday, the 23rd! It was right before big Paul came home from work, so he missed it!!! I happened to have my camera in my hand and I caught the tail end of the smile, that's why it doesn't really look like he's smiling in the picture!!! Everytime he has smiled since then when I put the camera up to take a picture, he stops smiling and stares at the camera! I guess he's camera shy!!!

Jennie and Holly's visit

Two Mondays ago, the 13th, Holly and Jennie came to visit me and the boys. I loved their visit and really enjoyed the company! Preston also found Holly quite fun and seemed very comfortable with her. LOL...it was so cute. Thank you girls for coming to visit us! It was a much needed visit from friends and I really appreciate you driving up here to see us! I'm so glad you both got to see little Peyton!

Fire Field Trip

On Monday Paul had his first field trip with his school! We went to the Ferrara fire apparatus and Paul and Preston got to go on a real fire truck, see how they were made, and see the tools that real fireman use! They had a wonderful time and we were glad that daddy got to take off of work and go with us so Peyton could come along for a ride too!!!

Unfortunately we had thought that Preston was over his prior sickness but we got home and his fever had started again and it was 102! Paul took him to the doctor and I had him bring Paul too because he had a cough and he called from there to tell me that they both had strep throat!!! Wonderful! We did our best to kee them away from the baby! It must have worked because Peyton is doing great! This was a rough week for mommy because it was the first week alone with all the kids and 2 of them were sick! Thankfully, the boys are all better now!
