Fort Building 101

Payton decided to build a fort the other morning. He stacked up his bean bag chair, his boxing gloves, some toy bins & his friend Emma's Dora umbrella. Brian thought it was so great that he helped add in some large cardboard boxes, the kitchen bar stools and a blanket.

Of course, then we decided to make it a "super fort" and added in some chairs, a couple more blankets, a king-sized sheet and various other elements. Needless to say, it provided days of fun for Payton!

What's in the box?

I thought Payton's little friends might enjoy this silly video...

Present for Mama

Have you ever received something from your kids that you just weren't expecting??? (P.S. Don't make fun of my green socks and no makeup - I didn't expect to be filmed that morning).

Makes me laugh

Payton somehow got a hold of our camera recently and decided to take a self-portrait. I can't look at this without laughing. He's so funny sometimes...

Go Rays!

We were all invited to go to a Rays game with some friends from our Bible study group. We had such a great time. Payton loved being at the game with his friends, eating hotdogs with Dada (yes, that would be TWO foot-long hotdogs), playing carnival games, and even meeting the Chick-fil-A cow. Great night had by all!

Where's Payton?

Can you guess where my little snuggle bug is hiding???

Easter: Part 1

The Easter festivities have been in full-swing this week around the Heckman household! We had an Easter party and egg hunt at Lilly's house on Thursday, a Good Friday service at church followed by an egg hunt, and then two back-to-back egg hunts today, followed by dying eggs in the afternoon. Needless to say, it's been a fun-filled few days. We'll post more photos from Easter day later on. For now, we hope you enjoy these fun photos...
