Ten Month Photos

Peter turned ten months old yesterday. He has been celebrating his new age by walking and eating paper. :)

He got tired of the lion and refused to hold him, instead he kept throwing him

Baby Steps

Little Peter just keeps on adding to his list of accomplishments. Today he was showing off his new ability to stand and take a step or two.

"Look at me!"
Starting to fall...
Taking a step...

Holiday World

Yesterday Peter experienced his first water/amusement park at Holiday World (and Christi experienced Holiday World for that first time in a non-8-months-pregnant state :D). We had tons of fun at the park with Mamaw and Cousin Zack!

Going down the alligator's back... not sure if he likes it...
Still not sure if he likes this strange place...

Getting sprinkled!
By the time we reached "The Wave" - a giant pool with simulated waves - Peter decided he loved it!
Later we left the water park to ride some attractions

The Joys of Mobility, Part 2

Peter crawled down the hallway to play with the dolls at the end...
He discovered the air freshener plug-in
He's such a clown!
Later he was fascinated by the open dishwasher...

"I can help unload!"
"Hmmm, these look dirty still."

Melissa and Jordan's Wedding

We attended Jordan and Melissa's beautiful wedding on July 4 and took many great pictures. Here are a few of them...

These are the groomsmen, dressed like Robin Hood's merry men

The Joys of Mobility, Part 1

Peter has entered a new phase of living - mobility. Not only can he now crawl, but he can also draw himself up to standing. He is very clever, mischievous, and gets into everything.

Here he can be seen raiding the trash for a Kohl's coupon. Apparently he wants to go shopping...
Then fell on his little bum...
But realized Mommy was taking pictures so he decided it wasn't so bad...
Later he discovered that the dining room chairs make a great little fort

But he got bored...
And with ease...
...flopped right out

Applesauce, and guacamole, and lemons... oh my!

Last Sunday, Peter was introduced to fruit for the first time. He loves his vegetables and had been eating carrots, green beans, squash, sweet potatoes, and peas for two weeks, so it was time to start on applesauce! Surprisingly, he didn't really seem to like it at first...





We were having lunch at a Mexican restaurant and he was bored after finishing his applesauce so he tried some guacamole...

He loved it!!

Next he tried the lemon from Mommy's water...
