Peyton turns 1 today!

Azteca for your birthday is a family tradition. So, here she is in the sombrero, she's not so sure about it.

She is clapping after they sang to her.

And then she got to have a few bites of chocolate mousse. She wasn't that impressed:)

Wow, I can't believe that our baby is turning one today. It is very bitter-sweet for us knowing that she is probably our last baby, but she is so much fun to watch grow up too. Peyton has a really fun personality, and she knows what she wants:) She can take command of a whole room if she really wants something or if mommy and daddy tell her "no." But, she is easy to calm down and for the most part she is a very happy, content baby. She is already walking, although crawling is still her preferred method of transportation. She says "momma", "dadda", "baby", "Bo-bo", "bye-bye", and "ba-ba" (for her brother). Some of her favorite things:
1. Peyton LOVES her teddy bear. She calls it her "baby" and we can tell she is going to be a great mommy some day. She rocks the baby, pats the baby, and gives it a lot of kisses.
2. Peyton loves her bo-bo (pacifier) and one of her favorite games to play is where mommy steals her bo-bo and she has to get it back.
3. She loves singing and music and really gets into dancing. I mean really! It's cute!
4. Peyton loves the water and swimming. She is completely relaxed in the water and didn't mind when daddy dunked her under. She just looked at him and smiled:)
5. Her favorite snack is Ritz Crackers and her all-time favorite thing would be her blanket (especially the tags, just like brother).
6. Peyton loves to give hugs. We pick her up and she pats us on the back. However, she is pretty stingy with her kisses. They are very few and far between and even less for daddy. For some reason she will almost always give a kiss to Mr. Jeremy and Brayden though, no fair!

We are so in love with our little girl and can't wait to see the great things that God has planned for her. She is so precious. More to come on her birthday party...
