Are You Ready for Some....



Yup, it's that time of year again. Football season!!

Last year, when James' parents' neighbor, Paula came to visit, she gave us this great Pittsburgh Steelers onesie for Peyton. But, it was sized for 18-months, so we knew we had to wait. It fits!!!



Peyton was helping James find the game on tv. Okay, not really, he loves playing with the remote controls).



It's great that he has some Steelers gear to wear this year - he outgrew his Colts outfits. I need to get more!

A Morning at the Mall (Meeting Curious George!)

Last Saturday, Pottery Barn Kids was holding a special event where you could meet Curious George. As Peyton adores the PBS show, James and I thought it would be fun to take him to see him in person.

We got there a little early (PBK is at Stanford Shopping Center), so I took Peyton for a little walk while James stood in line and took pictures (what a great Dad!).



Peyton caught sight of something...



...and decided he wanted to walk! (Yes, he's outgrown this outfit; we're moving on to 18 month clothes now).



James and Peyton got to meet Curious George!



Stanford has these metallic statues situated around the property. Peyton really took to the installation of two men with a dog.



Oh, did I mention that Peyton LOVES dogs? We were at a friend's birthday party last month and Peyton spent quite a while chasing their poor dog, Skyler, around the yard, with his arms held out and screaming "doggy, doggy, doggy"! He was more calm with the metallic dog.



And it wouldn't be complete if he didn't also touch the other man.



Luckily, there's a Gymboree not to far from these statues, so we finished off the morning doing a little shopping. :-)

Peyton is 15 Months Old

My, how time flies. Our "little man" is actually a little man. He's getting so big!

Peyton's hair is really curly now. The front is slowly starting to curl (it's a wave now). When wet, his hair in the back is about down to his neck (!), but within 5-10 minutes, it just all curls up.



He has 8 teeth now - four on top...



...and four on the bottom (sorry, this is the best picture I could find with his bottom teeth - he hides them).



He likes drinking milk, but prefers water. This was a fun night where he had both!



Taking a sip of milk.



And some water.



Mmmmm!



We're not going to see Dr. Glinder until he's 18 months old, so I don't have any official stats for you, but he weighs about 28 pounds (!), and is about 2-1/2 feet tall.

He is RUNNING around everywhere and is really getting into everything these days. He's definitely keeping us on our toes. And we're loving every minute.
