The Rain Boots!

Payton's new favorite thing to wear are his police rain boots that his Aunt Nicole, Uncle Anthony, and cousin Braxton got him for his birthday.  It doesn't matter what he is wearing or what the temperature is outside, he has to wear those darn boots.  Since it has been in the 80's and 90's this week, he of course has been wearing shorts and he looks absolutely rediculous in those boots!  Oh well, I'm sure it is just a phase and it will pass!  Here are some pictures of him right before we left to go out to dinner last night.  And yes, he went to dinner just like this:

And this is just a cute picture of him taking a bubble bath.  :-)

Messy Boy!

Well, it figures that I just wrote all about how clean Payton is in my last blog post and then he goes and makes a liar out of me!  He loves to eat peanut butter from a spoon and the last time we gave it to him, he got it all over his face and arms.  Then today, I got him out of the bathtub and put his diaper on him.  He was in the living room watching TV while I got ready in the bathroom and he apparently found his lunch plate that had ketchup on it.  Well, when I walked in the living room with his clothes to put on him, I found him smearing ketchup all over his face and chest!  He looked at me and said, "I doowaty (aka "dirty") Mommy!"  It is so unlike him to get himself dirty!  Needless to say, I stuck him right back in the bathtub to get clean.  

The latest thing Payton is doing that he thinks is just too funny is calling Rich and I by our first names.  He knows it drives us crazy, so he does it and then laughs and says, "I funny Mommy!"  Hopefully this little phase will pass soon!  Anyway, I have posted some pictures of "Dirty Payton."  Enjoy!
