Fun at Kema Boardwalk

This Sunday we went down to Kema and had so much fun. The weather was 82 degrees and it was the perfect day to be outside. We ate at Saltgrass, rode the "choo choo" train around a couple times, played in the water, walked around the pier, and watched all the sailboats in the water. Payten had lots of fun! She was beside herself when we were riding the train. It took us all around Kema and into a tunnell where there were cowboys shooting guns. Once we got out of the tunnel she looked at me with really big eyes and said, "Mommy that was scary." In other news... Payten can now sing Jesus loves me. It is the sweetest thing and absolutely melts my heart. I am hoping to video it and put it on the blog if I can ever learn how. She has the sweetest little voice. Oh and she is pee peeing on the potty reguraly now. I am so proud of her. Once we get home she will take off all her clothes from head to toe and go potty. And then she tells me, "Mommy I am naked" and then laughs. I guess she thinks she needs her shirt off too potty.?? :) She will spend hours sitting on the toilet and then getting up and flushing and then gets back on the potty and then will get up and flush again......she makes a complete mess and has toilet paper everywhere, but I don't care one bit! :) You can see the beautiful palm trees and clear blue sky. If you look close enough you can see Miss Payten running around. She had so much fun playing in the water. She of course didn't stop playing the whole time we were there.

Thanks Meme for coming down and visiting us and taking me shopping and to the Cheesecake Factory for my birthday.I am still thinking about the Lemon Rasberry Cheesecake I ate......it was sooooo yummy!!!!! I always have a blast when you come to visit and I know Payten was extremely upset to see you leave. It always goes by too fast. Thanks for baby sitting Friday and Saturday night so Matt and I could hang out with our friends and spend time with each other. I love my baby girl but it is always nice to have a night out!!! I had so much fun shopping at the Galleria....thanks for all my cute clothes and shoes! :) Love you!

Greetings from Texas

Greetings from Texas everyone! We have been having too much fun lately! (Is there such thing as too much fun??) Not for a two year old!!!! She got a new bathing suit the other day to go along with her Mickey Mouse slip and slide for the back yard. Since it was raining outside she had to go swimming in her new swim suit....in the bath tub. She played for atleast 2 hours! One Saturday afternoon we all pitched in and washed the cars. She was such a good helper!!! Payten really enjoys being outside and playing in the water. By the time she was done "helping" she was soaked from head to toe!

Last night we went to Chuck E Cheese for Josh's birthday party. (Mike and Tracy's little guy) We had so much fun, although Payten wouldn't sit still. There was soooo much going on that she was a little spaz!!!!!!!! By the time we left, Matt and I were in need of major quiet time!!!!!! I love this picture of her hair. It is getting so long and looks even longer when I straighten it.

Trip to Oklahoma

Last week Paytie and I flew to Oklahoma to meet the newest addition to Chris and Jennifer's family. He is sooo precious and I cannot believe how little he is!!! He is definitely going to be a heart breaker when he gets older! :) We had so much fun seeing everyone and praise the Lord the weather was beautiful while we were there....although the flight home was a "little" rough!!!! We flew through a couple storms going to Dallas, not to mention we were on a small plane. I kept gripping the seats as if that was going to keep us in the air. Payten loved riding in the airplanes. All 4 flights she was perfect...never made a peep, just was so happy and content sitting in her seat looking out the window. I had a few people tell me that I had a very good and well behaved traveler. That always makes a mommy feel good! :) Here is the crew of kiddos. We each have children now. Family get togethers should be nice and quiet from now on! haha

Payten just loves her "Bu Brad". She was very excited to see him. They spent a lot of time together playing around my parents house. She had lots of fun. So, we decided to take Payten on a tractor ride. She was soooo excited..... well until the tractor took off and she decided she wanted "off NOW"! She kept saying, "mommy I want off now". I couldn't help but laugh. She likes to look at the tractor but she wants no part in riding one. The day before we left the weather was in the 80's so Dad, Mom, Paytie and I went for a 3 mile walk. We went down the new trails in Skiatook. It was really nice and there was a creek so Payten got to get out of her stroller and run around a bit. She even took a little jog with Grandpa and me. I think she is going to be a runner just like her Aunt JJ. Meme and Payten got to play Mickey Mouse games on the computer. Disney has the neatest games for toddlers and preschoolers. I think they played for a couple hours one time. Payten LOVES Mickey and Minnie......she was pretty content sitting on Meme's lap! Thanks Dad and Mom for the trip! We had so much fun hanging out and spending time with you. We will see you in March!

Fun With Bob and Larry

Tonight Payten and I went to see Bob and Larry at the Chick-Fil-A by our house. Payten was beside herself and was in awe that Bob and Larry were there. She stood and looked at them for over 30 minutes. Finally I had talked her into believing that it was there bed time and that we had to go so they could go to bed..... So she thinks that Bob and Larry were really tired and that their mommy told them it was bed time too. :) She had so much fun and it was so cute to watch her laughing and a couple times Larry took her blanket and played with her. She also stole a kiss from Bob the Tomato. I think she will be talking about it for days. Enjoy the pics!

Mommy's Little Helper

Payten loves to help me do the dishes! She pulls her little chair up and will wash bowls, cups and silverware for hours. I have to make her get down and do something else. The other day I had just got all the dirty dishes in the dishwasher, so she decided to get every clean spoon, fork, and tupperware out of the drawers and wash them. I couldn't help but think it was so cute that she was imitating me. I told her in 10 years we are going to look at these pictures and laugh when she is complaining about how she hates doing the dishes. :) Congrats Chris and Jenn on your new precious baby boy who decided he wanted to grace his presence in the world 5 weeks early!!! And praise Jesus he was completly healthy and over 5lbs. God is so good! I can't wait to meet the little guy. Hopefully we will make it to Oklahoma soon. Here are a couple pictures of my new dining room. I thought that I was just getting the dining room table and chairs but Matt surprised me and got me the cabinet as well. I was so excited to get out all my China and finally have a place for all of our wine glasses. Everything was still wrapped up in moving boxes. Now the trick is keeping it looking nice with a toddler who likes to ride her tricycle in the house and a cat who loves to jump on top of the table and sleep on it!

Payten and Jonah

Well it has been quite a while since I have written on my blog. Things have been crazy around the Pregler house. Hannah and Jonah came to see us for a night and let me tell you the kids were CRAZY together. Payten was sooo excited to see him.... she acted up the entire day. She acted like I had given her a dozen spoonfulls of sugar... which I did not do!!!!! :) They had so much fun together and I definitely think they remembered each other. Here they are swimming in the bath tub with their clothes on.....which they did twice by the way. Hannah and I were in the kitchen talking and all of a sudden it got really quiet and we heard them laughing. We knew they were into something....and of course they were. I was kinda mad b/c water was everywhere, but they were having so much fun. They had cups and were throwing water on each other and they both found it to be hilarous!!!! And after the day Payten had she was fast alseep in 5 mintues. She was sooo exhausted. After the kids fell asleep Hannah and I went out for dinner at Los Cucos. She was craving Mexican so we had fajitas and wonderful conversation. It's amazing that Hannah and I don't talk a whole lot and it seems whenever we do get together we pick up right where we left off. So..... I got paint to paint Paytie's walls tomorrow and I am painting her "payten" letters an expresso brown and her walls a light green color. I hope it turns out cute. I will post pictures of the finished product.

Christmas Recap

Here are some pictures that were taken over the Christmas Holiday. Thanks everyone for a wonderful Christmas..... the week was so much fun and we really enjoyed visiting and catching up with all of our family. I must say it was nice to get back to warmer weather. It has been in the 70's here and everything is still green with the sun shining most days!!!! I will update more later.....I have to go cook dinner. Thanks again for everything. Payten has been playing with her new toys non-stop. I don't know what to do with all her toys. I think I am going to put some up for a while and get them back out in a couple months and then she will think she got some new toys.
