Happy Birthday Peyton!

Peyton means "Village of the Warrior"

Peyton is my nephew, son of my sister Erica (she is the youngest) and her husband Burdett.   Peyton turned 2 on Oct 24.  I did not get to see Peyton until February of this year when Erica came out with my parents for a visit.    It was such a treat to finally meet this little guy and to see my sister mother him.  He really is as sweet as these pictures.  When they left and I was putting away the airobed, I found a  little sock that he had kick off.  It smelled just like him, baby magic lotion-- I used the same for my kids.  I kept the sock for awhile and sniffed it.  Really I did-- when it lost its smell I returned it on a trip to my Mom and Dad's- that being about six months later.  I'm sure he has outgrown it, but Mom said that the new sibling joining his family could use it.   Erica and Burdett are expecting, I will have to have my mom remind me when.  I have a good friend expecting and with 3 of my sisters and Scott's sister expecting all with-in six months of each other... I have a hard time keeping it all straight.  Well except for Marlo, I was able to keep track off as she does a blog and had the "little floating baby" widget showing the count down. 

This is Erica and Peyton.   Fall 2007

Happy 2nd Birthday Peyton! Love you, sweet little guy.   I hope to see you before you turn 3!
Love, Aunt Karalene
