Our Sweet Little Peyton!



With all of the fun adventures our family seems to embark on it is very easy for little miss Peyton to be overlooked as far as blogging is concerned.  So this Post is all about our little bundle of joy.  Peyton, other wise know as "worm"  is growing very quickly!  She has begun to talk and loves nothing more than to carry on a conversation.  She love's attention and is a lot like her father that way! (wink wink!) She is finally beginning to accept the fact that the world will not come to an end if she is on her belly for a few minutes.  She still love's her swing and I am beginning to think I should just give away the crib!  Peyton and I hang out all of the time!  I drag her all over Shanghai and she always seems to be on her best behavior when we are out! She is a real trooper!  I have enjoyed the privilege of watching her develop.  I could spend hours watching her discover her hands and feet!  Austin and Brooklynn love their little sister.  They come into our room every morning asking where she is!  She is an amazing little girl and we feel so lucky to have her as part of our family!

Austin's First Day of School!


With five minutes to spare we managed to get a few pictures in before Austin headed off to his first day of school.  He will be attending Dulwich College Shanghai.  It is a British school so as far as they are concerned he is starting "Year 1." This is his casual uniform with the mandatory school backpack that is almost as big as he is!  He doesn't seem to mind, it must be because the cool watch he is wearing! :)  They grow up way to fast!  Since when did my child need a watch??
 


So Austin's first day of school was a complete success!  Let's just hope we can say the same for the rest of the year!

Clean Air!


This is Bryant on a business trip to Switzerland.  Let's just say you know you live in China when the first thing you notice in a picture is the blue sky!  I can only imagine how clean that air was! Too bad he couldn't bring some of that back with him!
