Hello Everyone! I am sorry that it has taken so long for me to update. 2007 has started out to be a little rough! It started with Payton being sick, then I have been sick for over two weeks with bronchitis, and then in the middle of that our furnace broke! So, after lots of asthma treatments for Payton, two trips to the doctor and 5 prescriptions for me, and $1,100 dollars to get our furnace fixed, I think we are starting to get on the road to recovery!
It hasn't all been bad though. In January we went up to Lake View, Iowa and celebrated X-Mas with the Schulte side of the family. Payton got to ride in a tractor with his Grandpa and Uncle Jeremy hooked him up with lots of Iowa Hawkeye clothes. In January, Payton and I also went to the Quad Cities to visit with his other Grandpa and Aunt Lindsey. We even got to go see lots of family and friends that we don't get to see very often. (We decided we need to do that more often!) A couple of weeks ago we took Payton to Union Station and Science City here in KC. They have a train exhibit that was a huge hit for Payton. For Valentines Day, Grandma Joy got Payton tickets to see the Wiggles concert this week. Payton loved it! I don't think he blinked the entire show! The only problem is everyday now he says he wants to go watch the Wiggles! I will say, "Lets get ready for school" and his response is, "No school mommy. Wiggles"!
We are a little bummed because we found out that our neighbors on both sides of us are moving. (I am not really sure that says alot about us if our neighbors are all moving!!) We are sad because one side has a boy Paytons age that he likes to play with and a new baby boy, and the other side has a baby boy. I was thinking by next year we could have our own basketball team! Hopefully the new people will have kids as well.
Payton has been doing great. He is getting so smart! He loves working on his puzzles. (If we get him a new one, he has it mastered in a couple of minutes!) I think I might have to start getting him a 100 piece puzzle and see what happens! He also loves to 'read' his books. He likes to practice the alphabet and counting. Yesterday he counted to 14! (He always forgets 6 and 8 though). We about had heart attacks when he did it. And I don't think it was a fluke because he did it all night. Of course today when I try to get him to do it he starts to act silly and won't do it. But it was still pretty amazing!
I am going to try and add some new pictures to the photo album tonight, so you will have to go and check them out.
Hope everyone is doing well!!
