Week 9

So this week Peter is 2 months old and that meant another trip to the pediatrician. I really love our physican, she is fabulous. I am not sure Peter likes her too much though because he got 4 shots this visit! His poor little legs were covered in bandaids. He wieghed in at 11 pounds 12 oz and is a whopping 24 inches long.

With it being Fall I couldn't resist taking a few pictures of Peter with our pumpkin, which looks huge next to him! As you can see, he is still working on his core strength and it was quite difficult to prop him up and then get a picture before he would slump over.

This is what I talked about last post, he will sit and hold his hands like this trying to figure them out.
My favorite picture-Happy Fall!

This is Peter's new game. I subscribe to this website www.babycenter.com and they give me weekly updates on where Peter is developmentally and they have good articles. They also give you games to help them with the skills that they happen to be developing at the time. So this is the swat game, they suggest hanging something barely within reach of them so they can practice their hand eye cordination. Within 5 minutes of me hanging this wrist rattle from his bouncer he was swinging away. It is his favorite new thing, he will sit there for a good half an hour talking to and swatting at the rattle.

As for me this week, nothing terribly exciting-but I was able to wear a pair of my jeans this week which was my big event. Alan had one of his hardest weeks I think, he had 4 tests. But thankfully one of them was a final so that is one less class he has to worry about!
