Precious Peyton

Peyton is getting bigger each and every day, but he has a long way to go before he will be as big as our favorite giant stuffed animal!!

 

Mommy loves taking pictures, so here are some pictures of our sweet baby Peyton, and a few of us too!!  

  

 

 

We love spending time with Peyton!  Tummy time is not his favorite, but we are always there to cheer him on!!

 

  Peyton's first Ash Wednesday.... such a precious blessing!!

Backyard baseball is one of our favorite pastimes and we are so happy that it is getting warm enough to spend time doing what we love!!

3 weeks and growing!

Peyton turned 3 weeks old on Friday! We love that he is awake more and more each day.... it is so fun to talk to our baby brother and give him hugs and kisses!


Mommy's favorite moments:
-Wilson's quick, but caring holds. Starts with "Mommy, can I hold Peyton?" Answer is always yes... Wilson holds Peyton, with a hug says "It's OK Peyton", and then after a sweet kiss on the forehead, Wilson looks up and says "I'm done!"
-Dylan's quiet signs of affection. Many times throughout the day, Dylan sneaks over to Peyton for a hug and a little kiss! Dylan also makes sure that Peyton is always nice and warm by covering him up with the nearest blanket!
-Ryan's sweet conversations with Peyton when he is awake and gentle cuddles when he is asleep.

Dylan and Wilson have fun playing in two of Peyton's favorite places!


FUN NEWS!! Daddy (who was diagnosed with a case of the shingles the day before Peyton was born) can now hold his little mini!!

On February 21st, we celebrated 91 wonderful years of GeGe!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Our Valentine's Day was filled with lots of love!! 

The Biggest Bell Brother is 6!

On February 10th, our big brother turned the Big 6! We enjoyed a small celebration at home together on Tuesday!

 

We celebrated in a big way on Friday (the 13th), with a party at Full FX!! Lots of friends at the party and lots of fun bouncing!

 

 

 

 

Ryan brings great joy to us all! We never imagined that he would have the responsibility of being a big brother to 3 younger brothers on his 6th birthday, but he rises to the challenges daily!!  He is doing very well in Kindergarten - reading like a champ and making us proud with his good behavior! He is looking forward to playing Little League baseball this spring and can't wait for summertime fun.

We love our big brother and wish him another year filled with great things!!

Welcome Home, Peyton!

We welcomed our newest brother home on Sunday, February 1!

We sure love our sweet baby!!

 

 

WHEW!  Being a big brother is exhausting work!!

 

It was SUPER fun to welcome Peyton home on SUPER Bowl Sunday... we had lots of fun watching the big game together (the first of many)!! Super Bowl XLIII was played between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals.  The Steelers ended the game as the 27-23 victor and Wide Receiver Santonio Holmes was named MVP of the event.

The week was full of new adventures for Peyton. Wilson has been spending his days holding Peyton (for about 5 seconds at a time), and Dylan has had fun teaching him to swing!

 

Ryan has been taking his big brother responsibility very seriously, overseeing all of the action and making sure that Peyton is safe through the excitement!

 

We are so proud of our baby brother!  We are looking forward to a lifetime of adventures with Peyton!!
