Peyton is such a busy girl! Here are some things she is up to now!

  • She has 4 teeth, two on top and two on bottom, and her hair has gotten soo long and curly! :)

  • She LOVES to walk! She wont crawl anymore at all, she has been walking for about a month now. She will just do laps around the house, with no where to go just because she wants to be walking all the time! She is very good at walking but sometimes she still falls, and every time she does she pouts. She puts her face down on the ground and says "ohhhh" and feels sorry for herself. Then after a minute she will roll her head to the side to check and make sure someone is watching her pout, and then she will continue pouting. 

  •  Peyton loves to be outside and loves to jump on the tramp and she screams really loud and high pitched the whole time you are jumping with her.

  • She loves to talk on the phone! If she ever sees someone talking on the phone she goes over to them and says "hi hi hi" because she wants to talk! She loves saying hi to everyone she sees, and she continues to say hi to them until they say it back to her. 

  • She is very fascinated with faces right now and she touches every ones eyes and says "eyes?" (and she doesn't softly touch them, she sticks her finger in your eye as far and hard as she can)

  • Peyton is definitely a girly girl! She loves to have her finger nails and toe nails painted, loves to put on lip gloss and loves to have her hair brushed. Whenever I put a bow or something in her hair she takes it out and tries so hard to put it back in herself.

  • Peyton always starts laughing when anyone else is laughing,even though she has no idea why they are laughing.

  • She is such a sweet girl and she loves to give hugs and kisses and cuddle! Especially when she just wakes up, she just wants to be held and cuddled and she very softly pats your back while you hold her.

  • Peyton has this little white stuffed doggy that she is in love with! It sleeps with her during all her naps and every night, and it goes everywhere with her. She is always hugging it and kissing it and if anyone takes it from her he starts screaming and crying.

  • Peyton loves to ride on her daddy's shoulders and she loves to use his ears as handles.. Ryan isn't a huge fan of that!

  • Peyton still loves books, baths, climbing stairs, emptying cupboards and drawers, having her teeth brushed, putting things over her face and playing "where's Peyton?", dancing, and playing the piano.

  • Peyton loves to share her food with everyone, but only enough so you get a little taste. If you actually eat it, she gets very upset.

  • Peyton is quite the talker lately! Here are some things she says:
hi = hi
ma = mom
da = dad
do = dog
ba = ball
doyee = doggy
bye = bye
no = no
dis = this
hi hi = high chair
ohhhh = oh
uh oh = uh oh
wha? = what?
eyes = eyes
num num num = yummy
beckist = breakfast
ba ba = bottle
wha dis? = whats this?
wha do? = what are you doing?
bwita! bwita! bwita! = ??? (we aren't sure what this means, but she yells it at anyone that does something to make her mad)

We love our little Peyton so much and we cant believe it has already been a whole year!
Happy  1st Birthday Peyton Jo!
(birthday party pictures will be up soon)

Easter Egg Hunt

I am a little bit behind on putting up the rest of our Easter pictures! Every year my Grandma and Grandpa Christensen have a big Easter Egg Hunt at their house for all the grand kids.. and now their only great-grand kid too! Peyton had so much fun at her very first Easter Egg Hunt. She caught on very quick to what she was supposed to do and since she has been walking for a couple of weeks it was fun for her to be able to get around by herself to pick out the eggs she wanted. She was so excited to see all the eggs all over the yard, I caught so many cute typical Peyton faces! It was so cute to watch her! Peyton got a huge bunny from Great-Grandma ChristensenSo excited!I just love all of her adorable faces!Peyton and Daddy very much enjoyed the warm weather we are having! Daddy got out the dirt bikes to get them all ready to go for the summer and Peyton got a little ride around the back yard! Daddy just rolled the bike around the basketball court and she loved it!This is Peytons face when the bike was moving

Peyton's New Moves

Peyton is very into dancing lately.. especially to one specific song. Ryan played a song in the car called "feel it" and Peyton immediately started moving her arms and kicking her legs and go the biggest smile on her face! She will dance to other songs sometimes, but this song for some reason gets her so excited and she rocks out! We have a bonus room above our garage that is pretty much empty except some random furniture and a stereo, so we take her up there every now and then and she knows exactly what we are doing up there! She goes and sits on her knees right by the stereo and just waits for Ryan to turn on the song! Here is one video we took of her showing off her moves!!!
