Peyton surprised me today, Porter and I were sitting at the computer looking at our blog when Peyton came up to us and wanted to participate as well. I had just finished banana and set the peal on my leg for a second. While Peyton was trying to crawl up my leg he noticed the peel and picked it up. I was just about ready to take it from him when I thought I might try something. I asked him if he could put the peal in the trash. As soon as I asked he turned around and headed to the kitchen, peal in hand. I was totally shocked. Quickly, I told Erin to look and grabbed the camera. Sure enough Peyton made it to the trash can. Erin was in the process of asking Porter to go help his brother open the lid when Peyton figured it out on his own and place the peal inside. Erin and I both were so impressed we clapped and cheered at his accomplishment. We were just blown away at how much he does understand and we take for granted.
We are the Gurney family! We have three boys Porter, Peyton, and Preston and one girl, Clara. Lynn is in his third year of a Prosthodontic Dentistry Residency at The Ohio State. Erin gets to stay home with the boys and Clara and keep busy with them.
