Big Girl Bed

We just set up Peyton's new big girl bed and she LOVES it! She keeps running into her room and shouting "Big girl bed!" and then laying down. She's growing up so fast!

I LOVE my Mom!!

Why do I do dumb things?

My Mom was visiting the Reeds for the weekend in RS a while ago, so we had my Dad and Tanner over for Sunday dinner. I was opening a bag of salad (with a large bread knife cause why wouldn't you??) and cut my finger wide open right as they got here. It was bleeding so bad that we couldn't tell how deep it was, but I hate going to the Dr so I told everyone I was fine and just wrapped it up.

After putting it off through dinner, Josh and my Dad MADE me go to Instacare just in case. It was actually good that my Dad was here so he could watch the kids while we went. Turns out it wasn't bad at all and they just glued it shut, but you couldn't tell that by the gigantic bandage they put on it!

The Dr was really funny and told us salad injuries are the #1 injury they see around there :) When we got back to the house, Peyton had fallen asleep on the couch - now I'm thinking my Dad should babysit more often!

My Lil 'Sweet P'

Peyton will be 2 next month (crazy!) and she is definitely acting like a typical 2 year old. She wants to do everything by herself and lets you know when she's not getting what she wants. She is talking so much and learning what seems like a million new things everyday. She is such a character :)


As I said before, she LOVES to wear my shoes. My closet is basically her favorite place at the moment. This is the outfit she put together the other day, complete with one of my necklaces. I think I have a little fashonista on my hands!

I got her some cereal the other day and went upstairs for a minute. When I came back down she was eating it with one of my mixing spoons. I don't think she got much in her mouth, but she was sure trying!

More of the Kids!

Now I have to play catch-up since I've been away so long. Here are some cute pictures we've taken recently.

Silly Kids

My kids are crazy, it's true! They are so fun and silly, I love it. I swear Peyton isn't always just running around in a diaper, but she happened to be when I got these two shots of her. This girl LOVES shoes and wants to wear mine all the time. She also like to get out the pots and pans, and apparently she also likes to sit in them :) Jack just had to get in on the action too, I guess.

Did you miss us?

We are still here, I promise! I've been a blogging slacker for a couple months but I think I'm coming back around. I toyed with the idea of getting rid of it all together, but I just couldn't bring myself to delete it. I guess I'll get around to posting soon!
