Part Two: Peter's Emerging Personality

Peter at three months is over 15 pounds.  He loves his milk! He is in 9-12 month size clothes. He also loves his hands and sucks on them all day.  He kicks a lot and smiles and laughs when he kicks something that makes a noise. 

 

 We are all in love with Peter's smile.  He even laughs at us now.  We spent a lot of the trip trying to make our "buba" smile. On the plane ride to Pensacola, Peter fell in love with the girls sitting beside me and stared at them the whole time.  He would wave his little arms and kick his legs to try to get their attention, and when they would look at him, he would break into a big smile and coo at them.  We are learning fast that Peter really likes girls.

We spent hours like this:

talking to him and trying to get him to flash us one of these:

Even the big kids get into it: 

 

and if all else fails, there is the force smile:

 

We love love love little Peter and his outgoing personality.  He puts up with his brother and sister "helping" him (Henry tries to help me nurse Peter), and really enjoys interacting with them. He loves Mama, loves to be held close, and loves to talk and coo and laugh.  He has also taken a great interest in his Papa, and the two are often found like this: cooing and talking to one another.

We can't wait to learn more about you Peter!
