Happy Mother's Day!

I got to celebrate my first Mother's Day today!  How exciting!  Little Payton even remebered the day and showed her gratitude with the cutest card, some body lotion, and a sweet smelling candle.  (What a good daddy she has!)  I must say, now that I am a mother, I am even more appreciative of my own mommy and am so thankful not only for the great mother that she continues to be for me, but for the wonderful grandma that she is to Miss Payton!

Speaking of grandma, Payton got to experience her first sleep-over at grandma's house this week without mommy and daddy! Even though Ryan and I spent the whole night talking about little Payton, it was nice to have a night with 8 hours of consecutive sleep! (Aren't grandparents wonderful!?)

Payton and Mommy on Mother's Day







Payton is now 8 weeks old and smiling like crazy!  She can even say the word "oh."  She is getting better at holding her head up and is sleeping for 5-6 hours straight most nights now. We can't believe how much she is changing and growing every week.   Oh how I love being her mommy!!!!
