While Daddy's Away...

Peyton and Mama will play.

 Drew took a group from our church to the Domincan Republic a couple weeks ago. We were sad to see him go, but had big plans for the week! We kept busy with a trip to Roanoke.

We headed out Sunday Morning to my grandparents house to eat with the Farmer clan. Of course in the time we woke up to the time we got in the car we had a meltdown, Hiro got lose, and had a huge scare of another nature, but we made it in time for a delicious lunch! Peyton swam with the cousins in the hot tub, and then we played outside with Hiro and the corn hole sets. 








We stayed with my Dad and Dreama (Papaw and Grammy Dee) so we had a good time hanging around the house with them. Monday we saw Robin and Shayne, then had lunch with Ben at Red Robin. It was great catching up with all of them! Them we came back to the house and took a nap, and then had dinner with Grandma, Johnny, Suzanne, Luke, Papaw and Grammy. I left Peyton with the grandparents and spend some quality time with my Samshe. :) Chick Fil A and Kohl's with no babies was a wonderful was to spend the evening! 

Tuesday we had breakfast with Jess and her adorable boys Jude and Luke. They are about the same age apart as Peyton and Sadie will be! We took a nap and then went to Splash Valley with Momar, Luke, Macy and Chris. I was really proud of Peyton. He went down two different slides 'by himself'. I caught him at the bottom, and held his hand on one of them, but other than that he was on his own. Such a big boy!!




We met Papaw and Grammy for dinner at Mac & Bob's and then headed to Luke's soccer game. Luke is a beast on the field! Of course we had to spend some time on the playground! :)


 Wednesday morning we met Heather, Tristan, Morgan, and Charlotte at Mill Mountain Zoo. It was perfect weather and Peyton loved the animals - especially the birds! :) Sure do miss these Mama friends!






The zoo sure is exciting and wore. these. boys. out! Once Peyton woke up we played a little golf, road a horsey, and got Ben hugs!




We had dinner plans at Mason and Kylee's house where we partied with Salads, Pizza, and cupcakes! We spent a little time outside and Mason read Peyton a story before we had to head back home - to Mount Airy.


I was in a lot of pain that week, so Thursday morning I went to the doctor and found out I had a pinched nerve in my back. My mom came over Thursday afternoon and stayed through Saturday morning. We were way  more relaxed, Peyton caught up on sleep, his books, and enjoyed being home, and I spend it on a heating pad while my  mom cooked and did dishes. ;) YAY! 

We had a good week but boy was I ready at 1145 PM Saturday when Drew walked through that door!

Finally! Some Snow.










Peyton saw a real snowstorm for the first time a few weeks ago. We were visiting home and when we got to church Sunday morning it was coming down pretty hard. He reached out in amazement, but he didn't care to touch it. We were blessed to be able to hang out with the Batson's that afternoon and Peyton giggled uncontrollably every time they threw snow towards the window at Peyton. I sure do love those kids! While people in Roanoke were over the snow and ready for spring, I was so glad we finally got to see some - and we were able to make it home to Drew safely that evening!

I've missed these kids

 I've gotten to hang out with my 'babies' a lot lately and boy am I lovin' it! The are as fun as ever even though they are growing up before my very eyes! We have made a trip to the zoo, to Nay Nays, played in the sprinkler, and braved the pool. I'm so glad I get to spend the last few weeks of summer with them before they head off to school!!

mixed emotions

 It's the end, and yet not the end. My last day of work was at the end of the year. Mason and Kylee will start school 5 days a week in January so that I can be free to have Peyton. I'm still going to be available to babysit, and should have them again in the summer, if not a little before. It just depends how Peyton does and how the kids adjust to school. I have been taking care of them since Mason was a little under 2 and Kylee was 5 weeks. Now they are almost 4 and 2 1/2 and can I just say I'm a tad attached to them! The Batson's are a great family and I am so blessed to have been able to work with them! 

These are some of the last adventures of 2011. Aren't they the cutest?!?!?

 Kylee loves baby Peyton and really wants to hold him!


Waiting in line at Dickens of a Christmas to get their faces painted!


friends with funny faces

I don't really understand the belly fascination, but once they got me laughing they couldn't be stopped.
