Grilled Cheese...Yummy!

I took these pictures and thought they were too cute not to share! Peyton had grilled cheese for dinner tonight and he loved it! He didn't even drop any in his lap! :-)

Storytime at the Library

Well, yesterday we had our first ever snow day with no snow! The school system cancelled school because snow was in the forecast, but it never came. This did however, give me the chance to spend another day with Peyton and take him to storytime at the library with "Aunt" Tracey and the kids.

Peyton loves to listen to stories and I've been wanting to take him, but it's always when I'm at work, so this "snow day" worked out great! When we first got there, there were toys set out for the children to play with, so I let Peyton crawl around on the floor and play. When it was time for story time, the librarian came out and started singing a clean up song and everyone helped clean up. She then led the children/parents in several songs.

After the songs, she read the story. Peyton sat on my lap and listened with very little wiggling! After the story the librarian passed out puppets of the characters so that the children could help her retell/act-out the story as she read it again. The first time Peyton was the goat and the second time he was the chicken (We actually stayed for both the 9:30 and 10:30 story times.)! After story time Peyton played and crawled around on the floor some more.

We even checked out two library books and 3 Baby Einstein DVDs. It was great getting to go to story time with "Aunt" Tracey and the kids and I really hope we get to go again soon!

Peyton and DJ

I had several people ask me where the pictures of DJ are, so here you go! Peyton and DJ love each other! DJ is costantly kissing Peyton and Peyton gets really excited when he sees DJ. Peyton crawls over to DJ's bed while he's sleeping in it and DJ just sits there and licks Peyton!

Standing and Cruising

Every time we turn around Peyton has pulled himself up to standing on something. He likes to cruise around the ottoman and the inside of the pack and play. His forehead and nose stay red because as he pulls up, he rubs his face on the furniture!

He also likes to stand up in his crib. When he first learned how to do that, he would immediately stand up when we put him down for bed! It was not a fun battle to fight! I am proud to announce, however, that Patrick and I won, and most of the time he will go down without standing up and screaming! :-)

Bath Time!

Peyton loves bath time! If he hears the water running in the bathroom, he crawls right in there and tries to pull himself up on the tub! As soon as you put him in the water he starts splashing away. Patrick and I have figured out that we have to keep towels handy because the floor almost always gets soaked! Peyton got bath toys for Christmas which he likes to play with, but he's just as happy playing with the wash cloth!

Bubble Gum!

Patrick discovered that Peyton loves bubble gum! Patrick blows bubbles and when Peyton goes to reach for it, he sucks it back in. Peyton cracks up every time! It's very funny to watch and see him try over and over again to get the bubble!
