The things he says...

So last Wednesday night at about 9:30 p.m. Peyton came up to me and had a hilarious conversation...
P: Mom, do you have any money?
Me: What?
P: Do you have any money?
Me: No I don't sweetie, ask your dad.
P: Dad, do you have any money?
Zack: How much do you need?
P: Ummm four.
Zack: Four
P: Yeah!
Zack: Let me see what I have
P: Ok
Zack: Ok buddy I have your money but I only have three.
P: Ok
A little bit of time passes
P: Mom, I go to the store and buy candy.
Me: Oh really that is what you are going to do with your money?
P: Yeah, I go to the store and buy candy now.
Me: I promise you I will take you to the store tomorrow buddy.
P: No. (Throws a little fit and walks away, comes back a few minutes later)
P: Mom, do you have your keys?
Me: What do you need my keys for?
P: I go to the store and buy candy and Roxie (our dog) coming!
Zack: You are going to go to the store with Roxie and get candy!
P: Yeah, bye!!
I have never laughed so hard in my life. How does a two year old know all of that? I got him to go to bed and put his money in his drawer and told him I would take him to the store in the morning. Well the next day came and I thought he would have forgotten, nope. We ate breakfast and right after, I go to the store and buy candy! I couldn't tell him no so we got in the car and went to the gas station. Out of all the candy he chose mini m&m's. Little stinker!!

October activities





We were able to do some fun things this last month. Peyton is at such a fun age now. He actually gets into things. My mom, Sheena and I took Peyton and Savannah to Thanksgiving Point one night and then went and picked pumpkins that next day. I love having fun things to do. I am always looking for ideas.

October!











Am I a horrible blogger or what! I can't believe it has been two months since I have posted anything. I will be putting up a lot of new posts to catch up. I love October, fall is here and Christmas is just around the corner. I have to say that I am having so much fun being a mom. Kids make the holidays so much fun! Tonight we made cupcakes and carved out a pumpkin. Well Peyton and Zack did the pumpkin. My husband is so crafty and is such a great dad to our kids. I am so glad that they have a dad that loves to do things with them. He basically took over the pumpkin and cupcakes! I love this time of year because we get to do fun things with friends and family! I hope everyone has a great Halloween!

2 months!




We attempted to get pictures with Peyton and it was not happening. He was not having it at all. I at least got some cute pictures of Savannah.

5 generations!
















There are 5 generations alive on my mom's side of the family. We took Savannah to see my Great Grandma Vi at her Assisted Living Center.

A new driveway

















My crazy husband decided to tear out our driveway himself and have a new one poured. My brother and Peyton decided they should help him too! Justin has never operated a tractor before. He did not want to try it on our house but Zack got him behind the wheel and he did great!

July 2008


































What a busy month. After a rough June, July seemed to be a great month! We have been busy taking care of our two wonderful kids. Peyton has been a very busy 2 year old. He just doesn't stop, some days I wonder how I am going to keep up with him. Savannah is such a great baby and getting big so fast. :( My dad is up and going and doing great! Here are some pictures of our crazy month!

My Dad and Mom

My dad has recently had surgery on his colon. He was told that he had colon cancer a few weeks ago and that the growth needed to come out as soon as possible. He went in for surgery last week and had the growth removed. They think that the growth is benign. He is now trying to recover from the surgery and is being a tough fighter. His kidneys are not functioning properly now and are sure making him sick. We love you Dad and want you to know that, we know you will pull through and get better soon. It is also my Mom's birthday today. We want her to know how much we love her too. I have two of the best parents anyone could ask for. Life is hard sometimes but together I know we will get through this.
