7 Months

Peter is 7 months old!



He has transitioned to eating 4 times a day - breakfast, lunch, dinner, and bedtime.  He eats cereal, bananas, applesauce, carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans, and most recently tried califlower!

He naps in the morning and the afternoon...sometimes a little snooze after dinnertime too.


He is such a happy baby!  Very observant of the world around him....noticing what his sisters are up to, loving the train around our Christmas tree.....He likes lots of different toys and I think Row Row Row your Boat is still his favorite :)



This boy is still moving and grooving - loves this jumper we are borrowing from my cousin! It's hard to get a clear picture of him because he just moves all the time! He's also sitting up pretty well and has entered my favorite (but fleeting!) time of babyhood:  sitting but not crawling.



I'm making this last picture extra big to show Aunt Laura -- here are his teeth!  Peter cut two bottom teeth - I found them on December 10th.  They are much more noticeable now, but this was the best picture I could get :)

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...

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.
