Payton's World

What's new with Payton at 9 weeks & 3 days old?
I love to be held..especially by my mommy & daddy.
My favorite place to be is outside..doing anything from going on a stroller walk, sitting in my swing while mommy reads, being in my sling while mommy hangs laundry on the wash line, getting the mail, and more!
I only wake up once at night now..usually at about 3 am, then at about 6 am...and sometimes I go back to sleep until 8:30...sometimes :)
I have no nap schedule yet..except for my morning nap, which is usually about 1 1/2 hours after I wake up. I love to look at people & be talked to. I coo & smile...I will be a gabber when I learn how to talk!
I love to take baths & now I splash, which is so fun! But I get pretty offended if I accidentaly splash myself in the face.
I am getting so big...I weigh 11 lbs & 14 oz now & am in the 80th percentile compared to other babys my age.
I always try to sit up no matter where I am....I think I am older than only 2 months!
I like my play mat & I kick my arms & legs like crazy...mom & dad won;t be able to keep up with me when I learn to crawl.
I still have beautiful blue eyes & brown hair ( except for where I am balding :)
I miss my nana & papa in Colorado SO much & today I got to hear my papa's voice on the phone & I smiled when I heard him!
My favorite friends to be with are Clare Jorgenson (Matt & Sarah's), Audrey Gill (Jay & Kati's), Kierra, Brett, & Brayden (Marv & Andi's), and soon to be baby Sam (Josh & Amanda).






I'm a big girl!

Lately Payton's newest adventure is that she is loving learning how to sit up! Everywhere...and I mean everywhere..she tries to sit up & usually accomplishes it! She lifts her head up in her car seat, if you prop her on a pillow or her boppy, in the bath tub..haha. She is very active & very strong!!! (9 weeks & 2 days old)

Yucky Shots :(





Yesterday Payton had her 2 month old check up. She weighed 11 lbs 14 oz (80th percentile) and was 22 3/4 inches long (65th percentile). She is getting SO big!!! She also had her shots, which was very traumatic for both of us :( Today she is still recovering by being crabby & sleeping a lot...haha. Here are pics..3 before her shots & even one of her in her carseat still smiling after we got home...for the moment anyways :)

2 months old

Now that Payton is 2 months old I have been trying to get some good pictures of her..it is still hard to get her in the right mood to take them & get her to smile when I am ready with the camera haha...She looks so adorable in these pics but I was having a hard time getting the camera to focus...ugh. BUT cant believe how cute & big she is getting every day!




Bath time!

Yesterday at 2 months old Payton officially outgrew her baby bath tub insert. She now sits like a big girl in the tub! She also LOVES to kick & splash water now & gets very surprised when she splashes heself in the face haha!


Daddy Time

Yesterday Payton stayed at home with Mike while I went to the gym for the first timesince she has been born! They "watched" the Cardinals on TV & napped :)
