On Thursday March 26, 2009 Peyton wore his MU gear…go TIGERS!! He went to bed around 8pm so he missed watching MU beat Memphis.

On Saturday March 28, 2009 we got our Mizzou shirts on but we stayed in sweats because the weather was horrible and we ended up getting 3 inches of snow/ice. We watched the game and Peyton was yelling GO! He kept looking at mommy as I was yelling at the tv, the TIGERS lost to UCONN in the Elite 8, so we were bummed but we had fun watching because Peyton gets into it now!

Peyton & Oma's Day

On Wednesday March 25, 2009 Oma came down to spend the day with Peyton. At first he didn’t want mommy to leave, which is normal right now, he doesn’t want to leave mommy, super hard for me and I feel terrible for him. They had a great day and Oma said that they sat on the couch and snuggled and then they played. She said that he was a good boy and didn’t push any limits wonder what she gave him to make him so calm:). After I got home I was able to sit with my mom and catch up a bit before she left to go see Aunt Belle.

Outside and basketball

On Sunday March 22, 2009 Peyton was so happy to get outside and play on his swing set, he swung in his swing and then we swung of the other swings. His favorite was the slide and he mastered climbing the steps and sliding down, he doesn’t quite have the landing down but he enjoyed sliding right off the slide onto his booty. He played with his golf set for a bit too but kept going back to the slide. That evening we had a cookout with our neighbors Nick & Melanie and watched the MU Game…go TIGERS!! Everyone was so excited that they won and are on their way to the Sweet 16 , Peyton was super cute yelling GO, not sure who he was rooting for but we say MU!

This past week was crazy busy. On Saturday March 14, 2009 the boys celebrated my birthday by buying me a Dairy Queen cake and gave me swim suits. We went to St. Joe on Sunday March 15, 2009 to celebrate my birthday with my family, Oma cooked hamburgers and hotdogs and twice bakes, so it was a yummy dinner. She made her famous Shamrock Green Velvet Cake. On Tuesday March 17, 2009 mommy celebrated her 32nd birthday (wow how time flies). Peyton went to daycare for a half day and mommy and daddy went to Clancy’s for lunch and to hang out with some great friends. On Friday March 20,2009 Peyton and mommy watched the MU game with our neighbor Melanie since it was in the middle of the day but we watched basketball all that night. It was a great week but now Peyton has come down with a cough and runny nose, not sure if it’s a cold or if it is allergies, time will tell. As for tonight Saturday March 21, 2009 we will be watching basketball and laying around the house.

Week in Review

Peyton had a great week and has been sleep later the past few days since the time change but I think he‘s back on normal schedule, darn I was hoping to sleep in this weekend. We got out one night and went shopping and he got a new shirt for St. Patrick’s Day and I did some swim suit shopping what fun that was, seriously need to tan and bump the exercisingJ He got to see Papa and Grandma Di twice, we met them at The Lodge one evening and then we went over to their house on Wednesday for Grandma Di’s birthday. Peyton was overwhelmed with the dogs but he finally got comfortable and was running around the house turning on the tv and the computer and then Papa was rolling him around the house in Katey’s wheelchair. Katey had scheduled surgery and is doing very well.

The Past Few Weeks

Wow!! Peyton has began talking so much. He has really started saying bye-bye all the time, he has been saying it for awhile but he says it all the time now even when he goes to bed. He still loves to yell MOM & DAD!
His new words over the past few weeks are I’m Done, Here you go, Thank you, Please, See ya, Oh-Uho Two, (we say one, he says two and we say three, super cute) He is yelling dog for Scuddles and he has discovered how to open the doors and loves letting Scuddles in and out of the house.
He definitely knows where things go, when he gets undressed which he can get his pants and diaper off he will put his clothes in the dirty clothes, something he just started doing, he was never asked but he gets a kick out of it. At night he loves to help get his vaporizer ready and he will not do anything else until it is done, so he will put the top in once it is filled.
He loves being outside and when it’s nice and we come home he wants to stay out and when you come in he will throw a fit until you take him out. His brand new word this week is NO, he will yell no at almost anything and he is starting to have more tantrums….what fun!!

We had Andrea, Alvin, Austin & Nick & Melanie over. Peyton and Austin are learning to share so that was a treat, but they played very well together for the most part. The adults played bowling on the Wii and Andrea & Melanie created their own Mii characters. It was a quiet and relaxing evening and it was great to catch up. Peyton was attached to Melanie every time she sat down he crawled right back up to sit next to her, it was super cute!!

Girls Lunch

On Saturday March 7, 2009 I had a lunch for my sorority sisters from college. We had a great turn out and a ton of yummy food. We had girls travel from St. Joe, Columbia and St. Louis so it was great to see those we don't get to see very often. Some of us were afraid to drink the water because we had 12 and 7 were pregnant:) Congrats to all of you having little ones. We had three kidos; Peyton was here, Austin (Andrea's son) & Cash (Kendra's son) spent the afternoon with us.
