I love this picture. Clearly this is NOT Payton's hat :)

Super Payton!

Payton trying to eat the camera! Not sure if that would feel good on his tooth :)

Payton doing his favorite thing...standing!

Uncle Jim and Auntie Ewon babysat Payton on 9/11. He had a blast!

Well, the latest update is that Payton Alexander now has a tooth! well, it's the start of one anyways, and it's on the bottom in the middle on the left side. No wonder he's been drooling so much! He pretty much puts anything within reach in his mouth, so I try to have a cold teeting ring always within reach.

Things have been going great! We went to Blue Lake last weekend for my Dad's 60th b-day and Payton did just fine. P also got to meet Jesse, Shari, and Hank finally. It was fun to see Payton and Hank meet and they held hands and touched noses once. wish I had a pic of that but it was too quick. We also spent a lot of time in Seattle and 'city' Gramma got her fill of her grandson. We are all happy to be home and look forward to more of a routine now that Fall is here.

However, it's been very sunny the past couple weeks so P has spent a lot of time outside in the shade, which he loves.

Other milestones: discovered his feet (tries to eat them of course), babbles loudly (sometimes ear piercing!), belly laughs, LOVES bananas (just started eating rice cereal and bananas last week), and 'new' diapers (enough said). :)

Thingsare going wonderful and we love our little man. Oh, and Winson is doing great too. He finally met another Boston named Brady and they played and played and played :)

Coming up: Auntie Ewon, Uncle Jim, and Gracie come to visit this week! yeah
