Until recently, Peter's communications have been limited to smiles, squeals, and screams. However, in the last month or so he has acquired several new words. If I had to identify one First Word, it would have to be "this". As in, "what's this?" But since then he has also started saying, bye, truck (tuk), duck (sounds a lot like 'truck' so you really depend on context, also, any bird is a duck), bus, bear (bay-uh), these, and cheese. Those last two also sound a lot alike and share the darling 's' sound, where Peter bites his tongue to create a cute little lisp. You can see this in the picture above where he's saying "cheese" for the camera.
He loves his showers and is still an avid tooth brusher.
Peter has discovered puddles and will stomp in them whenever he can.
He insisted on toting the bag of books on a recent trip to the library.
Peter's favourite book right now is "Rhyming Dust Bunnies" by Jan Thomas. We've had it since Eliot was a baby and it's the first non-board book that Peter's really been into, and he just loves it. It's a cute little book with a nice moral about the value of whistle-blowers.
Nothing like a story with Daddy, straight after a shower. You can guess what book they're reading.
Peter's a pretty good sport when it comes to being the Little Brother. The other day I heard giggles and found Eliot dragging Peter across the floor by his ankles. Everyone looked happy so I let it play out. Eliot dragged him all the way into the bathroom where they then proceeded to pull diapers off the shelf. Those boys!
We sure do love our Mr. Boo!
