Birthday Party with the Yoder's

This past weekend we went up to Iowa to spend some time with Grandma and Grandpa Yoder. Uncle Drew was also in town, so it was a great weekend to hang out with everyone and to celebrate Peyton's birthday with all of them.
Peyton loves being on the farm and getting to ride the tracker with Grandpa. She ask all the time to ride in the tracker and see the cows. She also got to see her first baby calf being born. It was quite the experience and all she can say about it was "Cow pooping" and "Yucky" I don't know if this was such a good thing to show her...
We also had a big weekend with Peyton. NO MORE PACIFIER! Both Brandon and I have been telling her that when she turns 2 that it would be going away. What seems to be working is that we tell her that the baby calf needed it...and it seems to be working. She has not had it since Friday night and is doing really well without it. She has not used it at Daycare for months, but fighting us at home to have it. I think that we have finally got rid of the plug...fingers crossed!
After a long day of working on the farm Saturday we were able to celebrate Peyton's birthday that night. She was so much fun and would get so excited with every gift that she would open.

Getting ready to blow out the candles. She was able to blow one candle out, but needed help with the other one.
Opening Gifts!
She loved her backpack and would not take it off
Getting help from Grandpa Yoder to open her gifts
She got lots of clothes...Thank goodness because she needs clothes for this Spring Time weather



Books! She loves her books

Grandma and Grandpa Yoder gave her $100!
Checking out her $100 Bill...AND
This is why you don't let a 2 year old hold money! It was too funny and we all just had to laugh when she just pulled on the bill and it split into two.
Birthday Cake! Peyton would let us know that she had a "Happy Birthday Cake!"
Very excited about something
Silly Girl!

Peyton had a great Birthday and is still talking about that it is her birthday and birthday cake. Good thing this girl is going to have a birthday month of celebrating. We head to Kansas City this weekend to celebrate with Grandma and Grandpa Reiff and the rest of the family.

These are adorable, Kelly! She looks a lot like Brandon in some of them. The last one is my favorite! We need to get rid of the plug for Waylon too!!! I wonder if she will think that you are going to poop her baby sister out, ha ha ha!
