Dancing Legs, June 28, 2008
I find myself always watching Miss Peyton's legs and feet. There is rarely a time when she is not pointing, flexing or rotating her feet. She is such a cute baby girl and I can picture her as a little dancer. I love my boys, they are so energetic and full of life and they are each very different and special. I also feel very blessed to have a little girl. She helps me feel like I have a kindred spirit in my house of boys!
More Charlotte
I have not been in a blogging mood, but I'll do a bit anyhow. Peyton had her 6 months pics taken at Sears yesterday. When we got there there was some problem and they said we had no appt. for us, ugghhh! So, since we were there and ready we waited, about 45 minutes. By then she was tired, the boys were horrifically bored and playing with props and Ben was standing on chairs and playing with the photo viewing computer. I was one of those times when you are really embarrassed my your kids behavior, but I couldn't blame them either. We go back Thursday for Ben's 3 yr pics. That could be good, so they can see what great kids I have, or bad, if there are more problems!!! Today is going to be a hard day, my 2 big boys are grounded today because they didn't come to the dinner table last night when called at least 5 times. We haven't been doing much, just swimming at my parents house mostly and I have been getting caught up on my digital scrapbooking.
Ok, these pics are of my dear sweet Charlotte. Her and Diego absolutely love one another. They play often and always take turns chasing each other. Getting her was great for Diego, he's having lots of fun with her.

Kids Day June 26, 2008
We had a ton of fun at Tyler's work. Every year they have kids day. This year we let the kids wait in line to go up in the um, whatever it's called! They loved it. We also got to make signs with the kids names on them out of actual road signs that they cut up. It was a very hot day but lots of fun.
Charlotte joins the Family!
Ok, so this one isn't Charlotte! My parents went camping and brought us home 6 beautiful trout and this is one of them before it got cooked. Thanks Mom and Larry, they were so yummy!
This is Charlotte when she first joined our family. Tyler makes a lot of visits to the members of our church ward because he is EQ pres. Anyhow, one of the families he visited had a cat that had kittens and there was one left, so guess who came home with the last kitty? Tyler, who claims he is not an animal lover. I love animals, kind of. I just see them now and all I seem to really see is more work for me. I said yes we could keep her though because I'm kind of a softie and I love my kiddos. She has been a pretty good cat though, aside from finding a few spots in the house she liked to poo! When she first met Diego she really hissed at him, over and over, but Diego persisted and now they are great friends. Sometimes at odd hours of the morning they get to playing and annoy us, and sometimes Charlotte attacks our unmoving feet in bed while we are asleep. There are more pictures of this little cutie to come.

Jacob's Lego house and Peyton's 1st pool adventure! June 22 and 23
Jacob was so proud of his lego house and asked daddy to take a picture of it.
My mom, "Nana Paula" gave me some money to go get Peyton a suit at Target. I had tried to find her one earlier this summer, and even before summer but they were all 12 months and larger. Well, Connie, a lady in our ward lives across the street from my mom and she came over to swim with us and her baby is just about a month younger than Peyton. He had on a cute swim shirt and shorts, she said she found them at Target just a few days before and they had just restocked them and they had girls too. So, my mom gave me the money and I went right then and there. Unfortunately all they had in the shirt style were bigger sizes, I went ahead and got her this suit so she didn't have to go naked! So, if you're wondering,"Why the bikini?" That's the story! I figure that while she's still in diapers it's really not that big a deal.
She would not look up she was so fascinated by the fabric.
The water was very cold, I didn't think she'd like it but she did!
Peyton is such a happy baby and really enjoys being near her brothers where she can see and hear them playing.
Nana gave her water from a cup for the first time and she did great.
