Fireworks at the Bee's Game

Our friends Loni and Tyler invited us to the Bee's game on July 25. It was so much fun. We didn't get there until it was half way over but I was glad because I don't think Peyton could have lasted the whole time.

Check out Peyton's face. This is what he looked like the whole time the fireworks were going. It was pretty funny.

Here are some pictures of Peyton the other day. He was being so cute! I wanted to put all the pictures on here but they were all pretty much the same so I just decided to spare you and I only picked a few.

Peyton loves to play with his toes.

Playing with toys.

I always wrap Peyton up like a burrito when he goes to sleep. The other day I put him down for a nap in his usual burrito wrap, and when I went to check on him this was the result.

Our new Nephew

Our nephew Alexander Scott Benedict was born on July 5, 2008 and was 8lbs 9oz and 21 inches.

Centerville Parade

We went to the Centerville parade and sat in Liz's parents front yard. It was so much fun to be with friends. Liz and Steve are moving to El Centro California on July 7, so this is one of the last times we get to be with them. I am going to miss them so much.

Fireworks July 3rd

On July 3rd we went to our friend Loni's parents house to watch Eaglewood fireworks. It was so much fun to hang out with all our friends and have grilled hamburgers and hot dogs. Peyton loved to watch the big fireworks and he didn't even get scared from the loud noises.

Bee's Game

Jeff's step-dad got tickets to a bee's game through his work and invited me, Jeff and Peyton to go with him, Jeff's mom and our niece Halli. We had so much fun, it was Peyton's very first baseball game. He was such a good boy the whole time we were there and was so curious about everything around him.

Peyton will always smile until I get the camera out and then he wonders why I am putting something in his face.

Dad loves to make funny faces with Peyton's big cheeks.

Peyton Laughing

I was sitting on the couch and Peyton was being a little fussy; I burped and he started to laugh so then I did fake burps and he
kept laughing.

Peyton has found his hand and won't stop sucking on it.

Such a big boy sitting in his bumbo chair.

Peyton fell asleep in the front pack, just look at those cheeks.

Sleeping so peacefully.

Blessing Day

Today was Peyton's blessing day and it has been such a good day. Both mine and Jeff's family came to our house for the blessing and Jeff did such a good job. After the blessing we ate some lunch. It was so much fun to have everyone there for Peytons special day.

Peyton's aunt Marianne gave this cute outfit to him and he is looking pretty cool with his popped collar.

My new life

I have been kind of a slacker at doing my blog recently, but it's because I have been so busy taking care of Peyton. I never expected how hard being a mom really is and that you really are always taking care of the baby and never yourself. I don't know how people have more than one kid. Anyways the past six weeks have been some of the best ever. Everyday Peyton is doing something new and those times he smiles at me makes up for those sleepless nights. Well not much else has been going on, just the normal everyday mom stuff.

So Cute

So peaceful.

Peyton loved his first bath. He loved it when I
would pour the water on his head.
