"Lollipop lollipop...oh lolli lollipop"

So today Peyton got a REAL treat! Mommy gave her a BIG ole lollipop! It took her a good 20 minutes to figure out it was edible! But once she tasted it she was in her glory. I ran after her trying to get some good shots. Miss P is a firecracker for sure!

Some pretty flowers!

My Father in Law is very fond of his gardens and they are gorgeous. I decided to take some pics for practice and I am really happy with the way they came out so I thought I would share!

"Summer, Summer, Summertime....Time to sit back and unwind"

We had such a great weekend! Saturday we went to the beach and collected lots of sea shells. Peyton did not want to sit still at the beach though, so it wore us all out. We then went to Sweet Mama's for dinner where Peyton wanted nothing to do with food and just wanted to talk to everyone and give kisses to Daddy. Sunday we decided to go spend the day by Aunt Patti's pool since no one was home. We had such a relaxing day. We swam for hours! Peyton loves to blow bubbles in the water and lick it all up. Daddy likes to splash Peyton in the face and she bursts out laughing! When we got home we had a BBQ and Peyton ate an ENTIRE cheesburger! She acted like we hadn't fed her all day! Then it was bath time, Sesame Street and night night! We hope you all had a great weekend, we know we did! XOXO

You think she had a fun filled weekend??

FINALLY got to see lil Aidan!!!

So I finally got to go see Sue and Neal's lil Monkey! He is so damn cute! I wanted to take him home with me! He is a hungry little boy! He didn't stop eating! We had a good night. Sue and Neal are so great with him and look so happy! It brought back so many memories! I wanted to get some good pics but the lighting was not that great - so I am a lil upset! I am planning on going back again next weekend when I have more time!

"Head, shoulders, knees and toes....knees and toes"

Our little baby is growing up so fast! She is learning so many more words and is a little chatter box. Her new favorite word is "Bubble" (when she finds time in between saying Mommy and Daddy a million times a day!). She is so good at listening now! She will put whatever she takes out back in its place. She also gives lots and lots of hugs and kisses as well as blowing kisses! She loves to say HI to everyone and also wave bye. But the most exciting thing she has learned is all her body parts! She knows her eyes, hair (head), mouth, nose, ears, hands and toes! It is so amazing to watch her learn everyday! We are completely in love with her! Today she started a new 'school' and she was AMAZING! She didn't cry once, not even when she was dropped off. She played with her new friends and had lunch with them. We are sad to leave all of her other friends, but most of all - Miss Carly! Carly is Peyton's BF and side kick and we will continue to see her out of school! She is a big part of our lives and we miss her already! We also miss all of her teacher, Miss Patty, Miss Wanda and Miss Karen. Peyton learned so much there!

I know this isn't the best focus but she is so cute not to share!

Welcome to the world....Aidan Quinn Harris

Today Suzi gave birth to the most adorable little baby boy - Aidan Quinn! Sue was in labor all day Friday into Saturday and had Aidan at 10:30 Saturday morning. I went out to help Sue move back into her newly renovated home Friday and it turned into a big Labor party! But for some reason - Sue only likes to yell at ME! But I love her and was happy to be a part of it all. I am so in love with this little boy and I know he will bring such joy to Sue and Neal. He was 7.5 lbs and 19.5 inches. He looks like a mini Neal! Peyton can't wait to meet her future husband! I wasn't able to get many good pics but I am going out there this week (hopefully - if they will have me) to get some better shots! Check back!

This was the labor party!

I'm bringing Saucey baaaaaack

I wanted to share with all of you what happens to Peyton when she is left alone with raviolis and sauce! She likes to rub it into her belly and laugh! Guess its the Italian in her!

"First" Hair Cut - Zippity Doos!

Peyton had her official hair cut. She got to sit in a Jeep and watch the wiggles. She had a little trim which made her hair so curly! They even put product in her hair (which of course Mommy bought). Peyton was a good girl. She tried to steal the comb and clips from the lady cutting her hair, it was so funny!! She was given a certificate along with her hair in a little bag.


This is her Before:

This is the best after I can get so far:

15 Months

Peyton is now 15 months old!!!! Dr said she is doing great! She is in the 75% for her height and weight but her big ole head is off the charts! I think she gets that from her Daddy! She didn't get any shots because they want her to recover a little longer from her Roseola. Here are the stats!

Height: 31"

Weight: 25lbs. 12oz. (can you imagine what she would've been if she didn't get sick!)

Words: Dada, Daddy, Mama, Mommy, Hailey, Nana, Nana (banana), Bubble, Cracker, Baby, Bye Bye, Hi, Night Night, Anna, Izzy, Anda (for Miss Wanda), Yummy.

She is doing so many great things. She is learning so much everyday and we are having so much fun with her! She still has a huge personality and is very affectionate to Mommy and Daddy!

I know I am so behind on good pics - I haven't really been able to work with my camera. I really hope to get back into it soon! I miss it! Here are some quick ones - but nothing special (I mean with the photos - of course P is special!)

Baby Ella's Christening

Today we got up really early to go to Baby Ella's Christening. This was Peyton's first time in church since her own Christening (yes - we are sinners). Peyton was really great! We did have to take her out a few times because she was talking so loud - but she was really great sitting with Maddie. It was a beautiful mass. We all went back to Anne and Bo's for brunch. Peyton and Maddie played for hours. They were outside in Maddie's new Jeep and on the swings. Peyton was an ANGEL! She didn't cry or whine once. Even when Maddie went to nap, she played great by herself and was so cute! Peyton finally fell asleep on Daddy - they had a good nap! After we got home we decided to go to Sweet Mama's for dinner. We sat outside and had a great dinner. Peyton ate her entire plate and laughed and watched all the people. We had a great day!


I was able to get some pics but they are not my best work. I haven't been practicing so I am a little off but I still wanted to share this precious little angel! The colors still need to be worked with but I just never have the patience for photoshop!
