Six Months!



Peter is six months old! Halfway to his first birthday, which is hard to believe.  He is a very happy baby, unless he's tired.  He eats 5 times a day, with cereal added in at breakfast and dinner time.  He sleeps from 8:30ish to 7:30ish :)  




He loves going to get Chloe and April in the mornings - and they are still loving Peter! :)  It's fun to see their relationships growing, and April is totally fitting in to her role as Big Sister.  Peter has no need for toys or attention when April is around! :)

I think Dad is looking forward to having a sports buddy :)  Peter does have much more interest in wheels and balls than our girls ever did.  It's a boy thing from the start I guess!  He still enjoys music.  And, of course, bath time is still a hit with Peter.  He likes to kick and splash!





This is a video of Peter showing you his sitting skills.  In the past week or so, he's really improved! It's my favorite stage of babyhood - sitting, but not crawling! :)

Baby Pool

Want to guess when Baby #2 is going to arrive? Post a comment, or send me an email, with your guess and I'll add you in! As a review, here are the rules to the game (taken from Heather Deterding!): 1. Post your guess for the baby's arrival in the "comment" section. Be sure to specify both date and time of day -- either "am" or "pm". 2. Limit one guess per person, and only one entry per time slot-- no sharing! 3. Winner is determined based on time of birth. For example, if the baby is born on April 20th at 7 AM, a guess of "April 20th, AM" would be the winner. In the event that there is no entry for the correct arrival time, the next closest guess based on actual time of birth would win. 4. We will post entries on the Calendar above. Check prior entries before placing your guess! Dates not displayed on the calendar above are still up for grabs. 5. The winner will receive... bragging rights and a congratulatory post h...

Chloe at 11 months

I can hardly believe that Chloe will have her 1st birthday next month. She is getting increasingly mobile these days - her 'crawl' is getting faster and faster. She is also pulling up on anything she trusts and occasionally cruises from one place to another. If you watched the video, you have also seen that she can use the walker...but needs Dad's help on the turns :) Chloe still loves music of any kind ~ she sways back and forth when the music starts. Singing will bring her out of any temper tantrum or pout. She likes to be outside and still tries to eat rocks...something we're still slowly learning... Over Memorial Day, Chloe had quite an interest in the American flag and at the 4th of July we found that her love hadn't faded and she carried around the flag all day. She likes her new toys (nesting boxes and a "push the button, door pops open") but is still interested in some of her old ones. She likes anything with a lid and has a new fascination ...
