Easter

We had a busy Easter this year. Lots of family to see. My parents were in town so we started off the day with Church and then went to lunch with my parents and Mark's Mom and Stephen. Peyton got lots of Easter goodies. After lunch we went over to the McDonald's home for the yearly Easter egg hunt and dinner. It was a lot of fun. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful big family.

My parents got Peyton an Easter present and he seemed to like the bow the best. He got a name train. It is so cute. The letters connect by magnets and spell out his name.Linda and Stephan gave Peyton an Easter basket with this very cute lamb in it and lots of candy for Mom and Dad. :) Isn't this smile precious? Peyton also got two new Dr. Seuss books. Here Nancy is reading the Nose book to Peyton. He is getting a little tired by this picture but really loved these books. In fact he was getting cranky and I tried to take the book away from him and he screamed till I gave it back. We are getting a mind of our own now.

I love my Aunt Kelsey!!! ( I love this picture, it deserves a frame)

I can't sit up by myself. Yeah!!!

A day shopping with Grandma!

My Mom took Peyton and I shopping on Saturday. Peyton was exhausted by the time we got to Baby Style and had to take a break. Don't you think he needs a chair like this to watch football with his Dad?

My new Bath Duck

Peyton got this duck from Dianne, a very close family friend. He is just now able to sit up so we got to use it this Friday. He loved it. Here he is trying it out before we put it in the bath tub.

What a cutie!!

I was a little nervous letting him sit up in the tub my himself but he did great :) He loves the bath and all of his toys.

Not such a great picture of Mom here Peyton kept splashing me.
Peyton was pretty tired after all the excitement and crashed soon after.

Toys!

Peyton is really starting to interact with his toys. It is so much fun watching him play.He really enjoys it. We got this monkey and elephant from his cousins on the Ganter side of the family. I think he wants to kiss the monkey. The teddy bear chair, Mark's Granddad made for Mark when he was a baby. It is really special so we got Peyton to sit in it for a picture.

Peyton's Room

We finally finished painting Peyton's room this weekend. It is such a relief to have that done now that he is 4 months old! We still have to find some stuff to hang on the walls but for the most part its finished. Yah!!

Peyton's new toy

Today we went to the library for their baby time. They sing songs, read a book, and have some play time. It was our first time to go and Peyton loved it. There were so many babies Peyton did not know what to do. He loved all the songs and watching all of the other kids crawl around. I think it will be great for his development. Also, Mark put together Peyon's Discovery Center. He really enjoys it. Here are some pictures of Peyton playing with his new Baby Einstein center.

Kelsey's Play

Friday was a big day, we got to see Peyton's Aunt Kelsey in a short play. She was wonderful!! It was really funny. Peyton thought the whole play was put on for him. He watched very intently and laughed. It was very amusing watching Peyton being entertained by the play. (I am sorry I didn't get any pictures of this.) Mark got to meet us after work and Peyton was so excited to see him but was very exhausted. After such a big day Peyton crashed. He is now trying to sleep on his stomach, which makes me kinda nervous.
