Grammie's Christmas Tree

My mom recently put up her Christmas tree and other goodies, which Peyla loved looking at. And touching. And pulling. Etc. :)

Gimme that giant candycane!

Sitting Up

Peyla just started sitting up on her own last week! I was surprised at first and wasn't really sure it even happened but now she does it quite often. We can't believe how strong she is.

Spoiled!

Our best friends Nate & Kendra sent Peyla early Christmas presents, one of which is the Leap Frog (great developmental toy)! Peyla loved hearing all of the sounds and watching the lights. It even has an option for spanish which is muy buen! We hope she gets to learn both languages. Guess that means I better brush up on mi espanol. :)

So fun!
Ummm, daddy- it's not your toy.

The first bite!

We tried giving Peyla her first bite of rice cereal last week to test her skills! She wasn't sure what to do at first and made the funniest face. But then she started leaning towards the spoon. Brendon swears she will be eating pizza in no time.

Patiently waiting.
the first bite!

"What was THAT mommy?!"

Meeting Peyla

Grandparents Phil & Donna drove in from California last weekend to meet Peyla! We had a great time with them and they spoiled Peyla with affection (and some new toys!). Thank you Phil & Donna for the fun visit. :)

Peyla's first Halloween

Peyla enjoyed her very first Halloween and was the hit of the party! We skipped the formal costume this year because they were a little too big. But she still put her best pumpkin...er..forward! ;)
