Peyton turns TWO!

I can't believe it, but on the 22nd Peyton turned 2! He is starting to talk like crazy and is such a little man! Of course we think that everything that comes out of his mouth is adorable. Peyton has a pet name for everyone, "Lally, Do-Do, Ashy, and Baby Nenni. So now, of course, we have adopted those names as well. He has started saying prayers by himself, and it is the cutest thing ever. He starts on his own, "Heavny Faudeh" and then
continues saying family names over and over again, until someone jumps in to help him. He squeezes his eyes shut tight, peaking at us every once in awhile, or sneaking little morsels of food from his dinner plate. We have also taught him answers to common questions. He knows his name, age, birthday, and of course, his best friend, "Mama" -(can you tell who's teaching him the answers =). My 2nd personal favorite, is when you ask him, "Where were you born?" And he replies with a perfect little accent, "Carolina."

We had a small, family birthday party with, of course, a ball cake! Peyton already can identify and name every type of ball you can hand him - and throw it as well.

Your cakes are so cute, perfect for a little boy who loves balls so much. Ya, I can't believe that they are two. It goes by so fast. It does feel nice to know that there is another on the way. Your family picture is so big!!! You guys all look so good! To get 5 kids to all look the same way and smile, nice job.

Happy B-day Petey! I am anxiously awaiting the pictures of Dallin's room.

I love your family picture! We desperately need to have one taken. Peyton is so cute! I can't believe he's almost 2. It doesn't seem like that long ago when you had him.

It was so good to catch up with you on the phone today. We miss you guys so much! Thanks for being my friend even when it wasn't easy!
