Miss Payton Jayne

I have been working on these pictures of Payton and I just wanted to share a few. I love taking pictures of Payton. She makes it so easy because she is an awesome little poser. Most of the poses she just pulled out on her own. She would say, "How about this one Cassie" then strike a pose. Then she'd say, "Oh, I know another good one. How about this?" Then strike her pose. She cracks me up. I love this little girl!

Easter/Paisley's 1st b-day party

I had so much fun dressing Paisley up in her little Easter dress for church today. In fact.....We might have been a little late for church today because the zipper got stuck and I couldn't zip it up all the way. But i was bound and determined to get it zipped up so that she could wear it to church. Heaven forbid I take her to church in something other than her Easter dress on Easter Sunday!


Confession: The candy was for me and Lorin :)


I got her the cutest little singing bunny. His ears flap up & down while he sings tootie fruitie oh Rudy. She got a kick out of that.

I've been a procrastinator and am just now posting pictures from her birthday party last Saturday.....Story of my life. But here they are. I know that Paisley won't remember her little party. But I figured that someday maybe she will look back at the pictures and know how much her mom and dad must have loved her!
Again....I know that Paisley isn't old enough to understand or appreciate my efforts but I had so much fun decorating for her party.

I had to pull out my rusty poster making skills from my cheerleading days for this poster. We did a cupcake theme. By the way...I do know how to spell little. Wittle is her nickname. It's baby talk for little. We have been calling her that since the day she was born. I didn't expect it to stick like it did.

This is my first attempt at decorating cupcakes. I can for sure say it will be a long long time until I decide to make a mess like that again.
Tasha taught me how to make these tissue paper balls. They were fun and so easy! The birthday cake.


I think the balloons were Paisley's favorite part about the party. She carried this yellow one around all day.

Say it's not so.....

My baby is one today! I used to say that the day she was born was the happiest day of my life. But with her around each day just get's better & better! Happy birthday baby!

These are some of the things I am just LOVING about you Paisley Jo.

• You can't fall asleep without playing with my hair.
• You love to cuttle
• When you find the dog food you try to grab as much as you can and shove it in your mouth as fast as you can before you're busted.
• Your favorite word is "Mia".....That's grandma Connie's dog
• When music comes on in the car you try to sing along
• When music comes on the t.v. you bounce up & down in slow motion. That's your version of dancing.
• You look so cute walking around the house like you own the place.
• Your favorite toys are my phone and my wallet. Uh oh....starting out early!
• When someone says hi, you say hi back in a high pitched voice and a big cheesy grin on your face.
• You love to blow kisses. But sometimes you get confused and blow them from your ear.
• You have everyone who loves you wrapped around your cute little finger!

This is a video of Paisley on her 1st birthday

Please ignore the high pitched baby voice I'm talking in :)
