Peyton's Party in Pictures

Peyton's Second Birthday Party was last Saturday.  And while there was a lot of talk by everyone about why she couldn't have been born in a cooler month, those same friends and family were there celebrating the day our little girl was born.  It was such an amazing day and I think the pictures speak for themselves how much fun the kids had. 

Thank you so much to everyone that came!  It overwhelms Mike and I to see all the people who love our little girl.  So thank you again! 

YouTube

I started a YouTube channel so I can post videos easier.  I foyu would liek to hear the video without the music from the blog, just scroll to the bottom and mute the music.  That way you will be able to hear just the video.  Please enjoy this clip from last night.

Birthday Continued...

Peyton's Second birthday was a whirlwind of presents, family and cake.  To start the day off the Lovelace crew arrived.  I had Peyton dressed in the cutest dress and even had her hair in pigtails.  However, she wanted to change outfits as soon as she saw the first gift she opened. It was an adorable striped dress with a horse on it from Grandpa and Grandma.  Two seconds later she was happily wearing her new dress sans pigtails. What can you do?

This year she definitely got the hang of ripping paper and digging into packages.

The first of many cakes for her birthday....a Tinkerbell cake.

I don't have a good picture, but she was sitting at her little kid table along with Grandpa and Grandma.  It was very cute!

After the first round of guests left, Peyton had just enough time for a nap before Nana arrived to start the fun over.

After dinner we went for round two with the Tinkerbell cake.  Peyton and Daddy had a fantastic time making a mess of the cake and each other.

Cleaning each other up.  So cute!

She learned her cake eating technique from her Dad.

The end result was a mess and two happy people.  We had such a fun day celebrating with the everyone.  Peyton loved all of her gifts but she especially loved sharing the day with the all of you!

Stay tuned for all the party pictures...

Happy Birthday Peyton

Today our little girl is TWO and we are celebrating!  I wrote the following for the first page of this year's album and it seems only appropriate for it to be part of this post.

Peyton,

As you rounded out your first year we couldn't have imagined the continued joy you would bring to our lives in your second. We have watched your sweet baby face grow into a beautiful little girl who has captured the hearts of so many.  Your nature is loving, your spirit is feisty and your heart is kind. You, our little love bug, have forever changed us and we are eternally grateful.

Happy 2nd Birthday Peyton!  We love you more than you will ever know.
