6 months...

Really?!?!?  It is hard to believe that 1/2 a year has passed already.  This month I think we got a glimpse of who Peyton really is...giggly, smiley, content, observant, cuddly, easy-going, active, beautiful and such a sweetheart!

This month Peyton started eating three meals a day...so far she appears to like everything but avocado.  

Peyton has started making farting noises with her mouth all the time now...kinda cute but she does it for a very long time and very loudly!  

We have a Chatty Cathy on our hands.  Peyton babbles so loudly and non-stop that we can barely carry on a conversation in the same room as her. Sometimes we have to give her a paci just to have some peace and quiet!  

This month Peyton got her first two teeth...bottom front!  

For several weeks Peyton was showing signs of wanting to sit up but she just couldn't get the hang of it.  Finally on her 6 month birthday she did it!  She looks too little to be able to sit up on her own.  She is so happy being able to see what is going on and plays with toys way easier.

Nebbie the Nebulizer...

Parker was acting a little out of sorts for a while...nothing major but at night he would breath really hard/loud and would wheeze a little.  I took him in just to double check things and shortly after arriving he was being hooked up to a Nebulizer!  They tested the levels of oxygen that were getting to his finger tips and they were 92...98-100 is normal and below 90 is dangerous for children.  After the Nebbie treatment he was at a 96 so they sent us home with a Nebulizer to do treatments every 4 hours!  It was so sad to see him wearing the mask...he looked so sad and he didn't like it very much!  After about 6 days of using it he was breathing much easier so we were able to stop.  They explained to us that this doesn't necessarily mean that he will have asthma but he could.  More than likely though it is just that he has a virus that inflamed his airways and since they are so small right now it is making it difficult for him to breath.  

Coast Guard...

Ryan was working at the Holland Coast Guard this weekend and invited us out to have a tour and take a look at the boat.  It was really fun to see where Ryan works and meet some of his co-workers.  Parker really liked sitting in the boat!

5 Months...

Our sweet little girl is getting so big!  Eating food like crazy, laughing at Parker all the time, rolling over a little (pretty much only when she is in her crib!) and blessing our family!
