Happy Birthday Peyton!

This year went so fast! I can't believe my baby is a year old already. It reminds me to be grateful that I am so lucky to stay home and spend everyday with my little turds. Before I know it, they will all be in school and I will be totally lonely without them. (I think that I am just having anxiety because Carter goes to kindergarten this Fall and I am not ready at all.)
We had such a fun day with Peyton. Seth and I took the boys to Surf & Swim. It was so fun!

The best part of the day for all of us was watching Peyton enjoy his cake.

The boys helped me pick out a gift for Peyton and they couldn't hardly wait for him to open it.

I took these pictures today after the little monster got into the boys' paint and then headed for the snack cupboard to bite holes in all the fruit cups and eat all the raisin boxes.

It's a good thing he's so dang cute.

Our new puppy!

We just added a new member to our family (as if I needed another little monster to take care of). It took quite a bit of persuading, but we finally named her Cloe Clifford Carter Luker. And when the boys get mad at her they do yell her whole name.

Baby girl Peyton!

Okay, Peyton is all boy, but his hair is irresistible. I frequently put little headbands and ponytails in it wishing and hoping that one day my girl will come!

Here's a few pictures that remind me that he really is all boy!

It has been a fantastic spring. I have to admit, I love the weather in Texas. It will be very hard to ever move back to a cold climate. We have been playing outside and it has been so beautiful. Here we are with some of our friends at the Arboretum. Peyton wasn't to happy that I had to put him down to take the picture.

Yes, this is Hayden in his underwear, wearing his favorite pink boots. I was so excited that he is finally potty trained and he looks so dang cute that I had to take a picture.

This was Peyton drinking all of my orange smoothy and absolutley loving it!

He looks just like his DAD, but he is totally a momma's boy!

A Day Out with Thomas

So, we took the boys to A Day Out with Thomas. It was like their dream day. Carter and Hayden both were in Heaven. Peyton (my little momma's boy) was also perfectly happy because I carried him in the beco all day. He is totally happy if he is with his mom. I love it!

We actually got to ride on Thomas! Yahoo, $80 for a 25 min ride. It was kind of a jip, but the boys couldn't have been happier.
