Peyton - 31 Weeks

Noah 30 Weeks

Here we are four weeks later for an update.  Geez time flies.  Soon enough it'll be summer, Peyton will be walking, and we'll be enjoying the beach and walks in the neighborhood.
I looked at Noahs 30 week update; I love to see how the two boys compare at the same age.  Noah was bigger but Peyton is way more mobile.  He can crawl! He rolls and has been rolling for a long time now.  He's impossible to change a diaper without holding him down and without a fear of him escaping.  Noah was just not like that.  Maybe because he was so big he didn't move.  It's so funny how Peyton is constantly trying to get away.  Mostly to chase a toy, or a brother or any other interesting object in the house.
But really, Peyton is such a good baby. We couln't have asked for an easier kid.  Maybe he'll give us the hard time when he's a teenager?

• How old is Peyton?: 31 Weeks - 7 Months
  
• Peyton is how big?:  20 lbs | Size 3-4 diapers | 9mo clothes
• Sleep: We're still going strong on sleep and he does a great job of sleeping through the night all 12 hrs. Thank goodness for babywise.  It's seemed to work with both of our kids and I'm so grateful for it. Still on the same schedule for now.  He's lengthening his awake time about 15mins more but otherwise the same.

• Milestones: Well the biggest milestone this month was his two bottom front teeth coming in!  What a little cutie.  I love to see babies with random teeth.  He's been teething for a while now and I'm just glad they popped out because you could tell it was really affecting his mood.  A little more grumpy and short.  A little whiny and very cuddly which I'll take... although he was never quite satisfied. He seems to be back to normal now that they're out.  Otherwise his crawling is getting much better.  He can get from one side of a room to another in a matter of seconds but not quite fast enough that I worry about him disappearing to another room. We really have to start thinking about that baby gate.... I hate baby gates.
• What I’m excited about/looking forward to: We'll, we've got about six more weeks in the school year.  Then it's summer. Summer schedule, summer life.  Time off, vacations planned.  What's not to be excited for.  We've got Mexico booked for May, Florida in July and all sorts of birthdays and other activities in between.  It's looking like a fun filled summer and I can't wait.
