Peyton's First Wedding

My dear friend Hilary got married in September and I just couldn't miss it, even though Peyton was only a few weeks old. Hilary was one of my closest friends and she was part of my big day, and I wanted to be there for hers. So Peyton and I got ready and headed to Indy. Bill had to work that day, so my sister Michael went with us. We got to the church right as the wedding was starting. It was a short wedding and we headed to the reception. We waited for the bride and groom to arrive, ate, and headed back home. Peyton was really good for most of the trip, but because of the long trip and no privacy, she got more formula than she was use to and power puked on the way home! So sorry Michael! Here are some pictures of Peyton is her sweet dress!

She was so tiny!

She looks scared to death!

The 5th Week

Here are some P^3=Precious Pictures of Peyton! As you can tell, she is more alert and creating a personality!

Love those little fingers

Someone is 5 weeks! Just keeps growing!

Sweet cheeks fell alseep on the boppy

Not sure why this picture didn't turn, but this is Peyton in her Irish sleeper her daddy picked out long before we knew if she was a boy or girl. Bill is a huge Notre Dame football fan and wanted her to be prepared for football season. This is her first ND/Michigan game-sleeper was pretty big!

We tried to put the hat on, but it didn't make her happy-probably because ND lost!

Love and Blessings,

Whitney

Reece's 3rd Birthday Party

I'm behind on blogging again....imagine that...so will catch up soon. My nephew Reece had his 3rd birthday party on Saturday, September 3rd. It was very hot that day, so I tried to keep Peyton as cool as possible that day. But we were inside often because of nursing and the little shower that caused everyone to come in. Peyton finally got to wear a newborn outfit that wasn't engulfing her!

They are only 4 weeks apart

Love Peyton's face!!!

They were trying to hold hands

More love for these babies!

Now Peyton wants to give him kisses!

These two are so precious!

The only pictures I got of the actual party.
