Catching up - Peter

Smiles - Peter loves to smile, he does it often. Sometimes just seeing family from across the room is enough to light him up.

Giggles - it's pretty easy to coax a giggle out of Pete, sometimes even a full out laugh.

Talking/rasberries - Peter does a lot of vocalization. Especially when he wants attention.

Spinning - Peter can and at least daily does spin. On his back and on the activity mat or in the crib he can spin 90 or 180 without too much trouble.

Rolls - Peter sticks his feet straight up, they fall to one side, and we have a baby on his side. He does this all the time. He can get back to his back easily. He also seems to choose which side he wants to be on.

Flip - One time Peter got from his side to his belly. We didn't see how he did it, we just noticed that he had done from back to belly. He still doesn't like belly time much.

Toes - Peter has them and loves to play with them. He can grab one with both hands or both with one. We even saw him with his foot touching his forehead. That must come from Tera because I would need surgery for that to happen.

Sick - Peter caught a cold either from daycare or his sisters. Coughing / boogies. He also started occaisionally making this loud wheezing noise about the same time while breathing in through his mouth.

Dr. - The wheezing must be for fun. Lungs are clear, phem is too, so nothing to worry about. Peter at almost 5 1/2 months is 18.5 pounds. He was on his best behavior, so the nurse took him down to the nurses station to show off what a cutie he is. All smiles for the Dr. when he came in. He was impressed at Peter's ability to grab his toes, that doesn't usually happen for another month.
