A Haircut for Bumpa (and Parker)

Parker was due for a haircut, and Gigi and Bumpa were up for the challenge. The best way to get Parker excited about getting his haircut is to give Bumpa a haircut first. It was hilarious to watch how much he got into it to the point of climbing onto Bumpa's lap to get a better view of the top of his head! He then pretended that he was a statue while Gigi cut his hair:)

We spent the weekend down in Corvallis so the kids could dress up for Halloween together. Unfortunately, we didn't get any pics. Parker was Optimus Prime (a Transformer), and Peyton would have been a little bear (we had a little bear suit from when Parker was a baby). Bets, Bella, and Parker had a great time trick-or-treating. Bets and Parker took turns ringing door bells on the homes in Nana and Bubba's neighborhood, and Bella was adorable going up to the doors with the big kids!

Peyton is rapidly growing and developing. I meant to post the results of her 2 month check-up. She is officially following in big brother's footsteps and is off the charts in both height and weight. She was nearly 14 pounds and grew 4 1/2 inches since she was born!! She is filling out 3-6 month clothes nicely and will most likely be in 6-12 month clothing by Christmas. One of the biggest perks of having a big baby is that they tend to sleep through the night early (Parker did not). Peyton has been sleeping 8-12 hours at night for the past week and averaged 6 or 7 since she was about 8 weeks old. We are so thankful for that as having two kids has been quite an adjustment for Nate and I in terms of figuring out how to balance time with the kids at night.

Thats all for now!
