Eleven Months

You are doing so much now. Standing up, eating all kinds of food and laughing and smiling like there is no tomorrow. We love you very much Peyton and can't believe that you are going to be one soon.

Not so Happy side of Peyton

I promise that no child was starved in the following video. What you are witnessing is a very impatient and frustrated just about 11 month old who believes that he needs to have a spoon shoveled into his little mouth 24/7. Mommy was just taking to long getting the food ready. This wouldn't have been a problem if little man hadn't seen me go into the kitchen and get stuff out of the fridge. If the mama goes in, it must be for him. :o)

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Isa!!

Hope your second birthday is filled with lots of fun. We love you bunches and so happy that you are a part of our family.

Love you lots,
Auntie, Uncle, Michael, Casey and Peyton (aka baby)

Even Peyt thinks it's Great

I got this video about a week ago of Peyton feeding himself because he was being so funny. Every time he would take a bite his hands would go up in there air, as if he was saying, hooray I did it all by myself. :o)

Thumper

Thumper was big enough to come home yesterday and the boys are really enjoying the bunny. As Michael likes to call him the biggest, biggest, biggest bunny. They really enjoy just sitting with Thumper. He is so cute (as casey says).

Helping Daddy

Daddy's new toy came yesterday and the boys were eager to help him. Well, everyone but Peyton, as he just wanted to eat (nothing unusual about that). Michael also got in to see Grandpa George's dermatologist and he gave us some very useful information that will help us with Michael's eczema. Let's hope this works as the poor child scratches all night long.

Michael and Daddy reading the instructions, amazing :o) Daddy never reads instructions

Finally Feeding Himself

I have actually been able to eat a hot dinner this week. Thanks to the fact that Peyton can do finger foods now. I was quited impressed this afternoon though. He was able to pick up some slippery and squishy avocados.

Very serious eater.

MMMMMMMMMMMM

Have to make sure it isn't going anywhere.

The latest

Peyton's iron level is still low and we are to continue with the supplement for 30 days and then retest. He is eating everything in sight. Although, he needs it now with how mobile he is. I can't even leave the room anymore. He heads straight for the kitchen cupboards. I think he is trying to tell me something :o) It hasn't snowed anymore this week. Yiiipppppppeeeeeeeeeeee. It was a beautiful day yesterday and Michael and Casey got to play outside. Just what they needed. I started training this week for making cloth diapers. It is going well. Brian set a table up for me in the rec room so that the boys can be playing while I am working. It is working well. So far the boys have not tried to get into my things. We decided to put Grandma Cindy's rabbit hutch to good use and got a bunny to keep at Grandma's house. We will be picking it up a week from Friday. The boys are quited excited. It is broken blue holland lop named thumper. Thumper's coloring is similar to the one below. I don't have pictures of thumper yet, but when I do I will be sure to post them. Off to get ready for my day of learning. The boys have enjoyed this because they have been getting to spend an hour or two with Grandma Cindy.
