Happy 4th Birthday Peyton!

Well I am a little behind with life right now. Peyton's birthday was over a week ago and I am barely getting his pics on the blog. Peyton is now 4 years old (and quite proud of the fact!). He is already saying that he is almost 5 now! The night before his birthday we took the kids to Leo's for pizza and to play. Cayle had been there before for a party, but no one else had so we had lots of fun. The kids loved the slide and went on it about a hundred times. Bowen kept right up with Peyton and MaCayle-his little legs were moving like crazy. They loved the arcade games . . .Josh and I even had a good time. The next morning Peyton got up bright and early to open presents. He wanted to open them in the morning (there was no way he was waiting all day!) but he also wanted Josh there so that meant he had to get up at 6:45 to make that happen. He was very excited about presents this year (even though he had snooped and knew just about everything he was getting!) He got a Woody and Bullseye costume for Halloween, some GeoTrax train stuff, a chocolate maker, and some puzzles and preschool stuff. He also got stuff from Grandma's and Grandpa's, so he was spoiled as usual. When I asked him what kind of cake he wanted for his birthday, he told me he wanted donuts so that's what we had. He blew out his candles on a chocolate donut . . .I loved it! It was super easy and they were really good. Peyton is such a funny kid and has such a great personality. Here are some things about our 4 year old . . .
*His favorite store of all time is Cal Ranch. He is in heaven in that place
*He loves vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, beans, etc . . .) but doesn't like fruit very much.
*He loves movies and can watch them over and over again. His current favorites are Alvin and the Chipmunks, Spiderman 1,2, & 3, Toy Story, John Deere, and Pollyanna (he is a boy of varied interests!)
*He wakes up in the morning super happy. He can be dead asleep and be happy, smiling, and giving hugs and kisses seconds later-I love it!
*He loves doing preschool with his mom and looks forward to when Bowen takes his nap and
we do preschool. If we don't do it, I have a mad little man on my hands.
*He is my sweetest child and also my biggest stinker . . . gotta love him!
*He says the funniest things. Josh's mom is keeping a notebook of all the funny things Peyton says because he always cracks her up!
*He gets obsessive about his interests. His current obsession is GeoTrax trains. He talks about them all . . . .the . . . .time. Not that I'm tired of it or anything!
*His nickname is Bubba. Josh started calling him that when he was just a tiny baby and it kind of stuck.

We love you Peyton and are so glad that you are a part of our family!
