It has been a while since we blogged about Peter's growth and development, but that doesn't mean nothing is happening!
His first two bottom teeth are in and are a very cute addition to our favorite smile. His height has pretty much evened out from the 90th percentile that he was born at to about the 40th percentile now. This isn't really shocking since Brett and I are both about 5 foot 7. Weight wise he is still a little string bean and hasn't broken 15 pounds yet, however when I carry him up and down our stairs I wonder sometimes. In the past 2 weeks he has gone to eating 3 "solid" (thought I don't know how you can call baby food "solid") meals a day; so maybe we will get a little baby fat soon!
We also now have a very mobile child, though he isn't crawling, he manages to get where he wants to be with scooting and rolling. Peter enjoys this new freedom, but it is also frustrating and sometimes painful for him. On more than one occasion he has scooted himself into our entertainment center, or rolled under something he could get himself out from under.
He is also talking more now! We have had tons of "mamas" a couple "dadas" (though they aren't really directed at Brett yet, and he will mimic words like "all done" and "OK" when we say them. Mostly, it is just a lot of noise right now, but his doctor says he is the earliest talker she has ever seen and that he is going to be very verbal (go figure).
Other than that, he is on a great schedule, sleeping through the night from 8:30pm to 8:30am, and taking naps from 1100am to 1:00pm and 3:00pm to 5:00pm - although it feels like every time I get him on a great schedule everything changes, so I am not holding my breath!
