Peyton thinks the "baby" in the mirror is super cute.
Cute enough to give high five too....
And even to kiss. 
This is Peyton showing off her pretty teeth and hair in a pony. I think that is a kissable face!

Pumpkin Carving

At first Peyton didn't want to stick her hand into the pumpkin. But she would help clean the seeds off of my hand. 

So proud of her little pumpkin. We ended up carving the letter "P" into it for Peyton.
The lid was like a puzzle piece. She turned it and pushed so hard to get it to fit just right.
Cleaning out the insides...then when it is clean we put them back right?! Or so Peyton thought!

Halloween is only a couple nights away. We are getting so excited to take Peyton trick or treating this year. I am not real sure how long she will last with all of the scary masks and decorations out there. But without a doubt we will have a lot of fun!!

More Ryser's Farm





The hay maze was so much fun to run through.Finally Peyton found her way out into the arms of her daddy!

Pumpkin Patch 2010 - Ryser's Farm

Running through the hay maze.
Hay ride - she would NOT look at the camera. 
Even at the pumpkin patch we must look for airplanes!!!
I couldn't be more in love with this smile. She melts my heart every time. 
Peyton has started to really enjoy playing pretend. She has put on my flip flops loaded her bag with toys and taken her baby on a walk. 
We had Peyton's 18 month check up today. She is 75% for height and weight. And above average for her language development. She surprises us everyday with her language skills and all of the new words she is learning. She repeats just about everything we say. Which  means we have started to spell words! I really didn't think this day would come so quickly. I'll have to try and video tape her saying "prosciutto" because it is absolutely adorable (thanks Jeff!). 
Peyton blowing Dominic's whistle. She loves everything football!! 
This was a present from Daddy. It is a 53" tall teddy bear! He is gigantic and super soft. We use him as a pillow for naps (I do anyway) and for reading books. Peyton adores him. 
And again more football. This time though she is representing the Beavers! Go Beavs!!!

Updates...with no photos!

Peyton will be 18 months in 11 days...that is right she will be one and a half already! I cannot believe how quickly the time is flying. She is entering the "terrible twos". Hopefully this will not last through her twos though!

Her vocabulary grows daily. She is now putting two words together. Primarily it begins with a no! But her most favorite words are bicycle (which refers to a bike, motorcycle, skateboard, pretty much anything other than a car!), and airplane. Peyton discovered airplanes a few weeks ago when we spent a few nights at my parent's house. Since then she is always looking up, even when we are inside, asking for airplanes. Dominic and I took this opportunity to take her to the Hillsboro airport last weekend. She loved watching the airplaces take off and land. Even the helicopters were pretty cool. Secretly I was hoping someone would ask if we wanted to go for a ride...I was hoping for some cool desitanation like Hawaii! =)

Dominic has officially turned Peyton into a football fan. We go to the JV games so she can see her daddy on the field coaching. Last week after the game I let her run around on the field. She was in heaven! But the funniest was yesterday while I was in the kitchen Peyton brought me the remote and kept saying "Utball" (this is how she says football). So I changed the channel to football and she got all excited sat down in her bear and watched some football. This continued into the evening every time I tried to change the channel!
