I think we are finally on a roll with potty training! She is starting to let us know almost everytime before she goes in her diaper. At least when we are home she does. Just in the last couple of days she has gone twice one day and then yesterday she went "#2" in the morning and potty last night. I feel bad actually because when she comes to me trying to tell me something I don't realize it right away and after a couple of seconds I think "oh! She has to go potty!" So we run in there and whether she has already gone in her diaper or not, she still sits down. It's cute too because she instantly starts wanting to play patty cake. When we first started to put her on her chair we would sing that song just to keep her occupied for a couple of minutes so now we sing it every time.

She loves playing with the little neighbor kids. I think between 6 houses there are 12 kids? And they are all under the age of 10 probably...But anyway, last week she was out in the cul-de-sac riding her little quad with the other 3 power wheels. But hers was obviously the smallest and so cute because the other kids were driving fast and all around her and she was going maybe 1 mile an hour! Everyone was laughing because it was so cute. Then she got in between two other girls on a bigger power wheel and she was having a blast with them!

She loves the park and always wants to go! She loves coloring! And we have been teaching her a little sign language too. She knows "more, "please", and "thank you".

This was the BIG slide! There was one slide that she had never been on. So Kenny put her on it and she took off and flew right of the end and landed on her butt in the sand. It was so funny because it was only about 5ft and it was straight, but a little steeper. We didn't realize she would get going that fast! She didn't mind though:)


She is obsessed with these boots! She always wants to wear them! She will whine if we try to put her other shoes on and she sees these laying there so we have to hide them...out of sight, out mind:)
Peyton mocks everything now-a-days! We went to dinner the other night and while we were waiting my mom was standing there with her arms folded and Peyton was trying to copy her. It was a little difficult for her to fold them at first so she would kinda roll them like she does when she plays patty cake until she got them positioned right. And I didn't realize how often I say "mmm nummmmies" until one morning she was eating her breakfast and after every bite she would say "mmm nummm" She would take one cheerio at a time and eat it then make this face at me. What a ham! I was cracking up!
She thinks she's pretty funny herself!
She is into hiding everywhere too. Ususally it's behind drapes or in a corner. This time she barracaded herself around her toys...I actually didn't even notice her right away.
She finally got her own little vacuum!

Lately...

She was hiding from me...

Saturday night we went to Peter Piper
I opened the refridgerator and usually she "helps" me by closing it. Well, she spotted the cheesecake and started digging right in!
She really was enjoying this...One of my favorite times with her right now is right after I give her a bath. For some reason she hasn't been liking them too much lately so when I get her out she just wants to cuddle up in my arms and usually she will fall asleep. This time she brought my robe to me and wanted me to wrap her up in it.
Look at my hubby showing off his sweet football skills! The Saturday before the superbowl he had another flag football tournament. We had to be in Tempe bright and early that morning so we dropped Peyton off at Kenny's parents and got ready for a long day! They made it to the semis...again...:( They played really well, they were just exhausted by the last game. Jeremy caught this one!
We haven't been up to too much lately...Our coed softball season started and we aren't doing too hot...we're horrible actually...I'm not sure what happened...Kenny's men's league started last night and they went 1-1. They are really good though and almost came back in the second game. Peyton was busy counting and drinking hot chocolate (hence her brown upper lip)
Valentine's Day we didn't do too much. Sunday afternoon we actually went to lunch and the movie No Strings Attached. It was nice just me and Kenny and we want to make it a point to do that every month. It's hard and our lives are just always so busy, but we are definitely going to try and make it happen. We dropped Peyton off with my parents then Monday we dropped her off with Kenny's parents. We had a nice romantic dinner at Filiberto's LOL! Actually Kenny got Chipotle and then we went to Filiberto's for me. Valentine's Day is over-rated so we never go all out, but it was nice just for the two of us to get out again.
