Weekend of Fun with Peyton part 2








Lunch at McDonalds Peyton was really hungry she ate all of chicken nuggets and most of her fries


























Next we went to Target to shop

and Mamaw was caught stealing some kisses






















Fun at the park we took our supper from Sonic and walked to the park to eat and play. Peyton was very busy, going from one thing to another






















Time for a bath and then we made a peach pie for mommy and daddy when they came home.











Peyton slept on the airmattres with me


she was all over it just like cousin Meg














Watch a little TV first thing in the morning and do a little cleaning with her new vaccum












Time for some yummy Pancakes!
Peyton is such a good eater















Time to brush our teeth
















First thing Peyton wanted to do was take a walk. We decided to take the wagon, she put her ball and her baby in the wagon and off we went, first she rode in the wagon, she sat in the wagon and grabbed the seat belt wanting me to put in on her, after a short ride she wanted to pull the wagon herself.












Mom and dad arrived home, Peyton wanted to show her mommy how she could draw on the sidewalk and wanted mommy to draw too! JD and Libby had a great time with Jeremy and Kris, they found out they will be aunt and uncle in April. They were both glad to be home with Peyton

A Baby on the way

Jeremy was lucky to find a wonderful soul mate Kris, we feel so blessed to have her in our family


They were married October 15, 2007. On Friday August 14th Jeremy called with wonderful news. Kris had bought a Baby Blanket and it was laying on the table when he got home from work. Come April they would be proud parents and make us Grammy and Pop for the 4th time.


Needless to say we are very excited. I am sure you will be hearing more on this subject the next few months.







GRANDPARENTS
Grandparents bestow upon their grandchildren

The strength and wisdom that time

And experience have given them.
Grandchildren bless their Grandparents

With a youthful vitality and innocence

That help them stay young at heart forever.
Together they create a chain of love

Linking the past with the future.

The chain may lengthen,But it will never part...
~Author Unknown~

We had to wait and post this because this last weekend Jeremy and Kris met JD and Libby in KC for a game between Royals and Twins, They wanted to tell JD and Libby their news in person so believe it or not I kept it off my blog and facebook afraid JD or Libby would get word of this. Now they know so, I can post to my blog
