Target practice

Fun stuff

While filling out Peyton's baby book, I was asked what places she likes to visit near home.  That's easy...Target!  I feel uncomfortable perching the carseat on the front of the cart.  Instead Peytie fills up the majority of the cart and I've learned to fill every available crevice with supplies.

By the end of the shopping trip she has items toppling all over her.  It's quite the mess.  Lucky for us she loves squeezing the bread!

BREAD!!

    

Tater Tot

I prefer candy

Our little tot had her first big girl veggie on October 13th.  Sweet potatoes went over well and over the next few days she starting grabbing the spoon to try and feed herself!  Since then we've tried peas and bananas.  She really really enjoys the peas!

Ahhh mom

Baby it's cold outside!

Grrrrr Brrrrr

Peyton and Daddy like to take Kinnick for walks.  Now that it's autumn they make sure to bundle up.

Hide n' Go Seek 

Crunch time

Weeee!

Movement milestones this week included:

1. Sitting up and then standing up (with help from Nana)
2. Rolling to her tummy and immediately to her back
3. Rolling over and over, when I came back in the room Peyton was on the other side of the room

Working hard on my book

Peyton loves her books!  We started reading to her when she was about 6 weeks old, mainly because reading was more fun than baby talk.  I didn't really understand why anyone would buy those super short board books with two words to a page so instead I was ordering books like "Madeline" and "A Sick Day for Amos McGee"...

That was until Peyton started lunging at and sucking on to the books for dear life.  I can hardly flip a page anymore!  Madeline will have to go back on the shelf for now. : )

So yummy!

Rice krispies

Mmm...delicioso!

Peyton started to eat like a big girl today!  We started with rice cereal mixed with formula.  Peytie seemed to enjoy it much more than Daddy, who made a horrible exaggerated gagging scene.  This cereal thing makes quite the mess.  We have to take special care to clean her cute little neck rolls. : )

Next week we're going to start introducing veggies.  I'm so excited!  Sweet potatoes, sweet peas, carrots, yes!  I'm tempted to just jump to the mango puree but who'd eat carrots after that!

Happy October!

Boo!

Today Peyton went on a playdate with her friend Gavin to get pumpkins.  She helped pick out a mommy pumpkin, daddy pumpkin, and baby pumpkin.  Her baby pumpkin was the cutest!
