Peter is 9 months old!



It's already time for another monthly update for Peter, and I feel like this month has been the fastest one yet.....even though it's winter and the days move slowly....this little guy is moving quick!  Peter's biggest development is learning to crawl.  He's now "on the move" and getting into all sorts of things :)  Chloe and April are learning that he can get into their things!!



These bottom two teeth might not be his only ones in a few more days.  I think the top ones are working their way out!  At the doctors yesterday Peter weighed 18 pounds, 13 ounces. 


Yes, a bunch of these pictures are taken in the high chair (because he's sitting still!) This next one reminds me of Peter's cousin Brooke :)


Did you see the "side-fluff-hair" in the last two pictures?  Aunt Michelle, this next one is to show you the hair cut :)  We also cut a little off of the mullet that was starting in the back.


This little boy is happy almost all the time.  He takes a morning and afternoon nap.  He eats three meals a day, still nursing beforehand and also nurses before going to bed for the night.  We just love him :)  He clapped this morning when I asked if he wanted to go find Chloe and April....so I think he loves us too :)

Wedding!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin! :) We attended Natalie and Dallas' wedding on Saturday and had a lovely time. We know both the bride and groom from college....and just happen to be great friends with the bride's parents as well (Hi Bill and Doreen!). Here is the new couple - Natalie looked beautiful, and Dallas looked pretty good too ;) Here I am with the bride - check out her BLUE shoes! No wedding is complete without a little dancing and singing....particularly to Livin on a Prayer....Steve, Jeff, and Kevin sang at the top of their lungs and performed an air guitar solo: even the bride joined in: We had a great time! I'm thinking of the honeymooners.....kind of wishing I was on a tropical island somewhere too! :)

34 Weeks

34 weeks and my belly button has popped out :)  haha!  I'm still feeling a lot of movement and today my doctor said everything was great.  Here's some info on our "Baby Brother", as I refer to this little guy with Chloe and April: Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds ( about the size of a cantaloupe ) and is almost 18 inches long. His fat layers — which will help regulate his body temperature once he's born — are filling him out, making him rounder. His skin is also smoother than ever. His central nervous system is maturing and his lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor , you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies.
