Peyton and Green Beans

Here is the before and after of Peyton eating green beans.

He did pretty good for his 1st time. The next day I gave him green beans again at night. When I put some into his mouth he coughed and all the green beans went all over my shirt. I guess should wear old clothes when feeding him.

Happy Belated Easter! We hope that everyone had a blessed Easter! We Enjoyed hosting both sides of our famly this weekend.

My parents came Friday morning and headed straight to pick up Peyton from daycare. They took care of him while I was at work and Jason was in Rapid running errands.

Then Jason's family came later that night. Here we are hanging out at the motel Friday.

Then on Saturday, I went off to work the early shift and some of the family went to see the Badlands. The Badlands are very pretty with snow on them.

Grandma S. and Aunt Kerry stayed at our house to take care of Peyton when everyone went out to the Badlands. Later in the afternoon Uncle Jerrit decided that Peyton is finally big enough to hold. Some of us made a visit to Wall Drug to find some treasures. We then enjoyed the evening playing with Peyton and watching Jason's high school graduation ceremony. It was fun to see and hear Jason before I knew him.

On Sunday we all went to Easter service. Then we came back to the house for lunch. Here are some pictures of Peyton hanging out with the family.

This is my favorite Easter pic of Peyton.

Early in the afternoon the Prins and Grandma S. headed back to Minnesota. I took a nap while Jason, Grandma and Grandpa T played with Peyton.

Then we all decided to play some cards. Here is Peyton telling Grandpa to play the Ace of Hearts.

Nice hand Grandpa.

We ate supper and tried giving Peyton a little jello. He ate most of the jello but some did roll down his shirt.




On Monday my parents left mid morning and headed back to Iowa. We enjoyed celebrating Jesus Resurrection with all of you.

This week I was trying to put Peyton down for a nap when I noticed he didn't like having his pacicifer in his mouth instead he enjoyed his thumb.

This was an outfit that Aunt Linette and Uncle Chris sent to Peyton. I thought is was cute that it had a helicoper on it. Thank-you Linette and Chris for the outfits!

I also decided to try to put shoes on Peyton. He kept them on for a little while then kicked them off. His feet seem to be really growing. Now Peyton is wearing 6 month old socks, I think he is going to have big feet like his dad.


Lately we have been letting Boyden come upstairs more to interact with Peyton. Boyden is very good with Peyton, he doesn't get to excited around Peyton. It is interesting how a dog can pick up on how to act around kids.

Here are the guys hanging together. I think that they are trying to get out of cleaning for Easter.
