Smile for the Camera

Peter has gotten really good at staying sitting up all by himself so I decided that I needed to get a picture of it. The first picture I took Peter still had his pacifier in his mouth but I could tell he was smiling. So I plucked it out of his mouth and went to take a picture and he gave me the cutest smile. :) He officially smiles for the camera.

4 Months Old Today

I don't have Peter's 4 month stats because his appointment is next week, but he is definitely a happy healthy growing boy. He rolls over both ways when he wants to I haven't seen him go full circle yet but I'm sure that's not too far off. Peter drools like it's going out of style, so he almost always wears a bib. Which is great because he'll play with it and chew on it and that helps absorb some of the excess drool. Just this week I put him in the jumparoo and he's discovered that it turns and he can turn himself towards the toy that he wants to play with. He has excellent picking up/grabbing control. It's amazing to watch him pick things up that I'm not sure he'll be able to. He also has really strong legs; he will just lay on his back on the ground and kick his legs. He will also kick his legs while he's on his stomach and he does this inch worm thing and he can actually move across his blanket. The most interesting thing about his inch worming is he doesn't use his arms.

Smiling Peter

Every Sunday in Andrew's class they take time to share news and last Sunday Andrew shared that Peter started smiling at him. One of the other guys in the class spoke up and said that the smiles were really just gas. Sometimes they are but I have some pictures to prove that they are not. He was smiling at me and I caught it on camera. :)
