Carrot Top

No Peyton's hair is not turning red....but it is growing carrots! Tonight he thought it would be fun to throw his carrots at dinner. Not a behavior we usually encourage, but he managed to land one right on top of his head and we couldn't resist the picture.







This week we resumed Mothers Day Out after missing a week and a day. He started the week off not good, though. Somehow he managed to bust his lip at the end of the day....a lot of tears, but he was ok. On Thursday his Dad picked him up from school...he was so excited to see Daddy in the middle of the day. Here is a picture from Thursday...doesn't he look handsome?!!!








And finally we end the week with lots of fun and work. The family spent the day Saturday doing yard work. Brad and I planted a few new flowers and cleaned up the flower beds. It looks so nice and unfortunately I don't have pictures yet...maybe tomorrow. Peyton pitched in by watering the concrete. He LOVED playing on the driveway with the water hose. We may have looked like your typical redneck family, but it kept him busy and we got our work done! His new thing is drinking out of the hose. I guess he's just a typical boy. He also managed to bust his lip yet again last night...how you ask? On the steering wheel of the Expedition. He loves to stand in your lap and help you "drive" into the garage and for some reason he got overly excited last night and bounced his mouth right on the steering wheel. A lot of blood and a lot of tears (by both of us!) but Mommy and Baby are fine. :-)We all played and worked so hard Saturday that Peyton was in bed by 7:50 and we were in bed by 10:00...early for those of you who know us. Sunday was a more relaxing day. Peyton enjoyed playing with his friends in the church nursery and we just fiddled around the house. It was wonderful! I leave you with a picture of Peyton dressed so sweet for church this morning.

I just love the pictures!! He always cracks me up. The carrot in the hair is perfect--he doesn't seem to mind a bit :-) I can't believe he hurt his lip twice...poor little guy. Glad he's OK! We love ya'll!!

He looks so grown-up in his school and church pictures. Love the carrot touch!! He is an entertainer for sure.

Love, Nana
