So many times since Peter was born I have wanted to jump on this website and record some "milestone" moments. But the fact that there is a huge gap from when my hands started to go numb during the pregnancy up to this point has kept me away. However, today I decided that I'll have to fill in the gaps later because too many wonderful things are happening with little Peter to not record them here--this is better than any baby book!
Yesterday Peter and I played peek-a-boo for the first time. I'm not sure if he really understood the entire concept, but I do know that every time I pulled the flannel diaper wipe (yes, it was clean) away from my face and said "PEEK-A-BOO," I could elicit a big smile. Since then I've been able to get some smiles out with peek-a-boo, but I definitely have to have his full attention first. He is starting to get easily distracted. A few things that catch his eye and won't let go: the headboard on the bed and the hutch/bookshelf in the living room. Also the point where the wall meets the ceiling in any room.
And yesterday I heard Peter laugh for the first time. (Thankfully I have recorded the date somewhere on the video camera when he first smiled.) It was late evening and we were standing in the foyer of our apartment building. Peter was very fascinated with the staircase banister. I wish I knew what was so funny, but whatever it was, he was smiling and giggling about it. I love it.
