Drinking from a real sippy cup!

We started giving Peyton a sippy cup a few months ago, but the doctor suggested that we go back to just a bottle to ensure that he was drinking enough. Well, I wanted to start the transition to a sippy cup, but Peyton hasn't really been taking to any of the cups we've tried. Yesterday I tried this one again and he drank from it! He drank some milk from it again this morning, so we may have found one that works!

Sharing Daddy's Breakfast

Peyton loves to share Daddy's breakfast...especially when it's cinnamon toast! Yummy!

A Basketball Fan

After the game the kids were allowed to play on the court. Peyton wanted to hang from the hoop once he got his hands on it!

Peyton loved crawling around the floor after the basketball. At one point he was going so fast that he fell over!

The boys: Jayden watched intently while the game was going on, anxiously waiting for his turn to play, while Khayleb played with the jump ropes.

Peyton actually sat on Patrick's lap and watched the game for a little while. Then he realized that he it would be more fun to crawl around the floor.

Peyton's New Toys

Yesterday while I was doing dishes, Peyton decided to take a spoon out of the dishwasher and start playing with it. He chewed on it and carried it around with him for a little while. He even took another spoon out of the dishwasher today and did the same thing, except today he decided to also use it as a drumstick on the plates in the dishwasher!

Peyton has found our shelf of DVDs and has started pulling them off the shelves for fun. When we tell him "no" and try to move him away from the DVDs he just smiles because he thinks it's a game. I can't believe how much he gets into already and he's not even walking yet!

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!
