Squash!

We have started Peyton on Vegetables. He likes them so much more than the boring cereal. We first started with Peas. He couldn't get enough of them the first time he ate them. I am trying to get the video uploaded to my blog but I am having technical difficulties and Mark is going to have to find time to do it for me. This morning Peyton had Squash for the first time. He seemed to like it okay. I tried to get some pictures but it is kinda hard taking pictures and feeding him at the same time. First Bite, yummy!

Hi Mom, I'm ready!

I want more!!

" I don't know about this Squash"

All done!

We will be leaving for Germany on Monday so we won't be able to post to the blog for 12 days. We are super excited. My brother and his family live there and we are going to visit them and see some of Germany. I am really excited to see Berlin and Munich. It will be Peyton's first plane ride. I will be sure to take plenty of photos and will be posting my heart out when we get back. More to come soon!

Cereal!

We started Peyton on cereal last night. He seem to like it. Mark and I had fun trading off and feeding him. It was pretty exciting and I can't wait to let him try all kinds of new foods.

Peyton's Baptism

Peyton was baptized on Sunday. It was really neat. A bunch of our family and friends were there to celebrate the event. Peyton fell asleep in the middle of it and awoke to the watering being poured over his head. We had a party at our house afterwards to celebrate. It was so awesome to have all of our family together to celebrate this joyous occasion.

This is my cousin Lisa, Peyton's Godmother, right before we cut the cake!

Mark let Peyton stick his hand in the icing and get a taste! As you can tell Peyton would like a little more!

Play Group!

Peyton and I joined a play group last week in our neighborhood. On Tuesdays we meet at some one's house and on Wednesdays we meet at the park. Here are some pictures from the park. It was so beautiful outside but it is getting hot.

Peyton is always listening intently to whoever is talking.

Peyton's first time on the swing. He loved it!


This is Delaney, one of Peyton's playmates. Isn't she adorable?

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.
