Life Lately...

Life since Peyton has been born has been wonderful!  He is such a precious baby and I want to hold him all day long.  I have no doubt he will be my most spoiled baby by far. :)  We have had several people visit...Nana and Grandaddy (my parents); Aunt Kathleen (my sister); and Jordan, Ashlynn and Logan (Kathleen's 3 precious kiddos) came right when I had Peyton (they were actually in route while I was in labor).  And Pappy (Jason's dad) came this past weekend.  We are expecting a visit from Grandmaw (Jason's mom) very soon!  Daniel, Lily and Austin (and Jason and I of course) have LOVED having everyone visit...and really don't understand why they can't just stay for 3-7 weeks or so.  Who knows?  :)

 Above is a picture of my parents with all 7 of their grandchildren!  That's right...7 children..6 and under!  When my sister's youngest, Logan, turns 1 in a few more days their ages will be as follows...Daniel-6, Lily-5, Jordan-4, Austin-3, Ashlynn-2, Logan-1, and Peyton-newborn.  Its super fun when we all get together (seriously...it really is...even though at times it does get a little teensy bit crazy). :)
 Peyton does a lot of smiling in his sleep.  We often wonder what in the world a newborn baby dreams about....but it is so incredibly cute!
 Afternoons in our house look a lot like this...
 It took Daniel a couple of days to get used to doing homework everyday after school, but he's getting used to it now.  Quite frankly it's taken me a little bit to get used to 1st grade...this school thing is the real deal now!

And these two are the ones I spend most of my day with...

 Daniel is such a good big brother...he always has been. :)
 Lily loves to get a hold of my phone and take silly pictures of herself...
 While Pappy was in he got the kids helping out with breakfast Sunday morning.  They helped cook and clean...and I don't mean just dishes...they also swept and mopped my kitchen floor!

So, life moves pretty slowly for the Heath family right now...at least for Mommy, Austin, and Peyton.  We are doing lots of eating, resting, snuggling, movie watching and napping.  But we are enjoying our restful days at home...well I am....I'm sure Austin will be happy when we start doing a little more (although he hasn't seemed to get too terribly bored yet).  Well, that's all for now!  Hope you have a great rest of the week!
