Its Been a While. . .

Ok everyone!  I know it has been too long since I last posted, so I thought it might be time to get back at it.  Summer is here so I much more time on my hands to post cute pictures of Payton.  Well, she's 6 months old now and definitely developing her personality.  She is one happy baby and loves to play!  Sims and I are so lucky to have such a happy and good baby.  Here are a few pics of her in the last few weeks.  Enjoy!

This is Payton in her Jumperoo.  She loves it!  And yes, we already have her reading! 


First time to try baby food.  Wasn't a fan of Peas at first, but now she loves them!


Look of distaste!


Mothers Day 2012


This is how I like to sit.  One leg propped up!


This is what happens when Payton hits the spoon while Mommy tries to feed her!  Never even noticed it on her nose.  Kept on eating!

Chillin'



Loves her feet


Kick, kick, kick


Eating my toes is what I do best right now!


Happy Memorial Day!

Loving My Play Mat!

On Monday, Daddy set up my play mat.  And I love it!!!!!  I can't really enjoy the toys yet, but I LOVE looking at the lights when laying down.  The lights blink while the music plays.  When looking at the lights, I love to coo, make tons of noises, and move my feet like I'm dancing.  Mommy and Daddy crack up laughing everytime I'm laying on my mat.  Video to come. . . so enjoy the pics for now!

Notice my legs. . . I'm definitely moving them like crazy!!!

I love this thing!!!

Ohhhhhhh, look at this hippo as he spins around!

Can't take my eyes off of it!

Hey Mommy!  Not now, I'm busy!

Pictures With Santa!

I just realized I never posted these pictures.  Before Christmas, Payton went to visit Santa.  She was so cute!  Before we left the house, she was in such a really good mood and I got great pictures of her.  While visiting Santa, she slept the entire time, but woke up in enough time to take a picture.  We were so proud of her- no crying!!!

I'm going see Santa!!!!!

Happy Baby!

Look at my outfit!  I'm so darn cute!

Cheese!

Christmas 2011

     On Christmas morning, Payton enjoyed seeing all of her gifts from Santa.   She must have been a REALLY good girl for a month!  Not long after opening up Santa's gifts, the Bruns family was on the way towards St. Francisville. Once we all arrived, we were greeted by everyone at the door since they all couldn't wait to see Payton! She spent the day with CiCi, Pop, Aunt Caress, Bill, Aunt Charlen, Nicole, Drew, Charlotte, Aunt Cindy, Uncle Overton, Sam, Ms. Sue, Big Dad and Gran. She enjoyed every minute of it.
     The next day, Payton got to see her Uncle Matt and meet her Aunt Kim and cousins, Claire and Elizabeth.  She had a great time playing with Aunt Kim and Claire.  Claire showed Payton all of her stuffed animals, tickled her, and played peek-a-boo.  Claire was so cute with Payton.  We all had a great time together! 
       For the remainder of the time, Payton and Mommy stayed for a couple of days in Lafayette while Daddy went home to work.  While in Lafayette, several family members and friends visited to finally meet Payton.  Overall, she had an exciting and eventful Christmas!  We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas as well!

Love,
Sims, Brooke and Payton

Wow, Santa came and left me a lot of gifts!  I've only been born for one month, but I guess I was REALLY good!

If you look real close, they have the same smirk on their faces.

Payton's First Christmas 2011

Payton's first Christmas was spent in Lafayette.  The Bruns gang went in on Friday, December 23rd and were busy the entire time.  On Christmas Eve, Payton spent the night with Pop, Lolli, Nanny Sommer, JuJu, and Granny.  She was the highlight of the night and was in every picture taken!  The night was so eventful that she didn't go to sleep until 10:30!  She was exhausted! 

You can't tell by my face, but I was VERY excited for my First Christmas!

My Christmas Outfit
I'm so darn cute!

I fell asleep in a weird position on Daddy before the party even began.

While I was sleeping, I pulled my bow in my face.  I guess I needed an eye cover to sleep!
