6 Days Old

I spent the free time I had while Hunter was at school yesterday taking photos of Peyton. Photographing newborns is hard work! Especially when you're trying to do everything by yourself. She pooped on 3 different blankets, too! I couldn't be happier with the results though. She's so pretty!

A not-so-happy ballerina :o)

Hunter singing to Peyton

Hunter loves to sing to Peyton, especially when she's crying. It's the cutest thing in the world!

Hunter's first day of preschool

Hunter will be going to school on Tuesdays and Thursday from 9am to noon. The school is just a mile and a half away which is awesome. It'll give me a nice little break and some time with Peyton a couple days a week. He's been pretty excited to start going. We pulled into the parking lot this morning and he knew we were at school. He ran right into the room and sat down at the table and started playing with play-doh. He didn't care that I was leaving in the least. I know he's having a ball today. My 3 hours has gone by pretty fast. It's close to time to go back and get him already!

Dressed and ready for school

Getting out of the car

Play-doh is serious business!

First Photo Shoot - 4 days

I attempted some pictures today and only got away with one pose. We'll try again tomorrow, maybe. I love them though. Her little mohawk is the cutest!

Peyton is here!

I think most people that read this blog already know that Peyton has arrived. I was induced Wednesday morning at 4:30am and she arrived at 11:31am - 8lbs 4oz and 21 inches long. It couldn't have been a smoother birth experience. I pushed for an entire 6 minutes and out she came :o) Recovering has been much easier this time and we actually came home just 30 hours after she was born. We saw the pediatrician this morning and she is at 97% of her birth weight which is excellent for being breast fed. We're doing really well overall. Hunter is having a ball with Dedi and will spend some time with Grandma before he comes home on Saturday. That's when the real transition will begin :o)

I think Peyton and Hunter's first pictures look a lot a like so I thought I'd do some comparisons.

That husband of mine..

I mentioned to Heath that I needed something to organize all of Peyton's headbands. I was thinking of just a rectangular piece of wood to slide them over so the flowers and bows wouldn't get smushed like if they were stuffed in a box or a drawer. He tends to take things to a whole new level and here is the result. It's perfect! I like to call it The Headband Tower.

T-REX Cafe

It's our last weekend as a family of 3. I can't believe it! I wanted to take Hunter to do something special. I heard about this T-REX restaurant out at Downtown Disney not long ago and knew Hunter would love it. I have no idea how long it's actually been there. I hadn't seen any pictures so didn't really know what to expect. We had a great time. The food is definitely overpriced. You're paying for the experience for sure although the food was surprisingly good. Every 20 minutes the place comes to life - the lights go down and the dinosaurs start moving and making noise.

Grandma met us there

Hunter was a little intimidated when the place came to life.

But we all just became dinosaurs and yelled back at them :o)

After lunch we went digging for dinosaur bones.

Hunter

Definitely taking after his Dad

Uncle Ronnie & Aunt Pat showered Hunter with goodies while they were here a few weeks ago. One of the goodies was this hat with light attached. Hunter loves to go into dark rooms with it and look around. "Come on, I show you" he says.

We got stopped by a really slow moving train one day so the boys got out of the car to see it up close.

Hunter found a pillow Grandma brought and he went and got his blanket and doggies and layed down in the bathroom where the pillow was.

Key Chains

My newest product is key chains. They come in 3 different sizes and there are lots of color options.

1. Wristlet - This one measures 5 inches and will slip over your wrist if you just want to carry your keys.

2. Fabric Key Chain - This one measures 4 inches (can be made smaller if requested) and is made of just fabric and sewn together so there is no loop.

3. Mini Key Chain - Just a mini version of the Wristlet at 2.5 inches.

Here are some fabric choices (fabrics can be used on any of the key chain styles)

And some ribbon choices (only used on the Wristlet or Mini)
