21wqs<---Hello from Paytyn. Okay so Paytyn is a sucker for chocolate like any girl. Jim got these choclolate's for Christmas. Well Paytyn found them, she unwrapped them and chowed down! Here I am taking a picture and you can see her little hand, sneaking in trying to get more chocolate.Here she is eating the chocolate. She is sneaking to get more chocolate.

Hair do's and don'ts

Okay so for many of you that see us (Paytyn and I) you would know that  can't do hair! I have practiced for many years now on doing little girls hair. Now that Pay's hair is getting longer, I need to start doing something with it. So this was my attempt to do a ponytail today.  She wouldn't hold still, I tried to hold her down, but of you that know Paytyn that is almost impossiable! So this is what I got. I will work on it more after her afternoon nap. I am going to try pig tails. I will try and post more pictures.

Paytyn growing up.

Okay these past few weeks in Utah have been fun/challenging/hopefull/ and truely a blessing! I never knew had strong of a person I could be. The Lord has truely blessed me. Well that's not what im going to talk about....Im going to talk about how fast Pay is growing up. She is learning so much! She know's where her eye's,nose, and mouth are! So stinking cute when you ask her. She open's her mouth wide and sticks out her tongue. Today in church, she climbed on a chair next to me,folded her arms and put her head down like she was getting ready for a prayer. I was so happy I almost cried!
Paytyn has been a blessing in my life. I love her so much, she makes me smile and laugh everyday. When we got home from church it was nap time for Pay. I was making dinner and I asked Pay "lets say a prayer", she folder her arms and bowed her head! Then I knew she was starting to understand more and more. When we were eating dinner, I asked her for a kiss and she blew me a kiss! Then she kept doing it, since I went crazy that she could do it. She is mimicing everything I do! She is a litte mama's girl. My calling is in the nursery, I left Paytyn in there to go to the other nursery. When I came back Paytyn was in tears! She couldnt even eat her snacks! When we(Paytyn and I) were having FHE(Family Home Evening), I was showing pictures of Jesus to Pay, I would say "Jesus loves us", she then would kiss Jesus's pictures. She went through our gospel art book, kissing all the pictures of Jesus. I just can't believe how big she is getting. We miss you all. Thank you so much for all your love and support! Paytyn and I love you all!

New Year, new fun!

 

 

 

 

So Here are pictures from Christmas, and Just around. She was trying to take her new vacuum up the stairs with her. She is getting so funny and fun! She know's when I tell her to go take a bath where to go. She goes into the bathroom, and trys to take her clothes off. When I say is it time for bed, She goes to the fridge to get her milk, then she goes to her crib. She does that with nap time as well. She is starting to climb. She is becoming a fun little handful! She has started singing now too, she doesn't really talk so it is more just like her screaming. But its fun to hear her singing while she is playing or "cleaning". She loves to sweep up, and vacuum. She is 14 months now. She is getting to big to fast. At night when she wakes up she screams MAAAA! MAAAA! MOMMY!....So everyone wakes up. But We are looking forward to our trip back to UT soon. I know Paytyn is going to miss her cousin Johnnie, and I know he will miss her too. Yes, the fight but they do like playing together. I have loved having my mom and dad so close along with my sister and her husband. I have been eating good NY food and I will miss the food but Im sure my waistline wont miss it! Paytyn loves feeding herself.No she won't let me help she will just scream and then not eat.She also started playing with little green army men one night.One day she was getting to ready for her nap well she didn't go to her crib she went to Johnnie's bed and went under the covers. Of course I had to take a picture,The next time she did it, I thought I would see if she would sleep in there for nap time.It was really quiet so I thought she was sleeping, when I opened the door to peek in on her she was playing,the little stinker. She just started taking them out of the bag and lining them up. So funny to watch! I hope you all had a good Christmas and New Years. We miss you all!

 

Paytyn learned to climb!

Snow day!

So one day Paytyn and I come back from the store to find Johnnie and Kriston outside building a snowman. Well Kriston building a snowman. I took Pay inside but of course she wanted to go back out to play. So I took her out and I while I went back in. Johnnie and Pay played outside it was a warm day(30's). She loves Johnnie's little truck.

Here they are with the finished snowman!

Another Picture. Paytyn follows Johnnie everywhere. Even when he doesn't want her to.

Just a cutie little picture of her. I will be posting our Christmas Photo's as well SO keep and eye out for them. We miss you all, and wish you a Very Merry Christmas! Love Maggie and Paytyn.

Oh life!

This is Paytyn and me at the ward Christmas party. We had to match. It was a luau. It was fun, Paytyn had fun playing with Johnnie and the rest of the kids. She loved playing with the hula hoop. She was having so much getting into whatever she could. But she wasn't getting hurt so I didn't stop her.

Paytyn went to a birthday party. She loved the little red car. Whenever we go to a toy store and there are little red cars out....She of course has to get in and drive it around. It takes at least 10mins to get her away from the car when we have to leave. She has a little red car waiting for her in UT. I know she is going to love it. When we left she was to little to play in it, now that I see she can push herself around I think she will be ready for it. She didn't play in the ball pit, and I didn't want her sucking on all the balls. SO I snapped a picture and took her out.
