Peyton and Landon are 1 year old!

Today is Peyton and Landon's 1st birthday! I can't believe it has already been one year. They have grown so fast - I can hardly remember holding them in my arms in the hospital. Peyton started at 5 lb. 15 oz. and now weighs 21 lb. 13 oz! Landon started at 5 lb. 10 oz. and now weighs 19 lb. 13 oz! Landon may weigh 2 lbs. less, but he is taller than Peyton - and definitely is the bully of the two! They have so much fun playing together and chasing after their big sister. They already fight over toys, food, and especially their nuks! They haven't started walking yet, but both have taken a few steps by themselves and walk along furniture or pushing trucks or hanging onto their big sister's hands! They got a ton of toys for their birthday, now our house is even more of a toyland than it was before! And I think their big sister likes playing with them just as much as they do! Here are some pics from their party last Sunday. Enjoy!

Here the boys are in their new pajamas they got for their birthday from Auntie Liz and Uncle Jesse.




This picture was taken today on their first birthday - sitting in their Tonka trucks they got when they were born!

Memorial Day Weekend

We had an awesome weekend of playing outside, cooking out, boating and hanging with our families. Here are some cute pictures from the weekend.

Peyton's cute hairdo!

Playing with the boys

Our little star!

Jayden had her 1st dance recital this past Sunday and she did such a great job! She is the youngest in her class, so I was a little nervous for her....but she was awesome! We were all so proud of her! She had a lot of fans in the crowd too (Grandpas & Grandmas, aunts and uncles and even her little cousin - Natalie!) Their costumes were so cute - they were known as the "Hungry Hippos"!

Best sister-in-law EVER!

So, many of you know that my sister-in-law, Kristen, is an amazing photographer and has been taking TONS of pictures of our kids over the past year. You can visit her blog here. Every time we get together, she is always there catching the moment with her camera. I really appreciate it, because without her, we wouldn't have such awesome pictures of the kids growing up. We feel SO lucky to have her in our family. We love you, Kristen!

Here are some recent pictures she took of the kids.

Best Friends

Jayden's best friend is Ava Finn. They absolutely LOVE playing together and are always so excited to see each other! Ava's mom is one of my best friends too, which is one of the reasons Jayden and Ava get to hang out so much! :) Here are a few pictures of them together - one in particular was taken when they were only 20 months old - their 1st time camping together!

Happy Easter!
