Month in Review

Sorry for the bad blogging. November was a crazy, stressful, emotional month around my household so I figured I will just do a month in review to catch you all up. We celebrated Halloween with six of Payton's cousins, so we had a houseful. The kids went trick-or-treating to about three houses and then we were done for the night. The next weekend Payton and his cousin Sophia were baptized at St. Jude's Church in Redmond. The entire family came out to celebrate including my Papa, which was so special for us. That following week my Papa became very ill and passed away, leading to lots and lots of much needed family time. We spent Thanksgiving with Jeanie, Kal, Grandpa Tom and Grandma Florence who was in town from Moses Lake. Jeanie made a beautiful dinner, we played games and had a very relaxing holiday.

Payton is growing and developing so quickly. He is walking and getting into everything. He is such a comedian too. He has this fake laugh that he does whenever anyone in the room (or on TV) laughs. He is trying so hard to talk and communicate, which so amazing to watch. Payton flirts with all the ladies we pass in the store or who look his way and is testing all of of Mom and Dad's limits. He makes me smile everyday and is such a blessing to our family. Enjoy the picts. :)
