Pete WALKS!

Here is the our little guy walking all over! It is as if he doesn't remember how to crawl anymore. He just woke up today and decided it was time to walk...Mommy wants him to slow down!!

My First Safari

Pete got to go on in first safari a couple of months ago and he loved it, as you can tell. These first pictures were of his spotting of some giraffe! He was so excited and wanted everyone else to see what he was seeing. Too fun.

Then on the way home we got a really bad flat, which is inevitable for any good safari trip. So Pete decided he needed to take over the wheel as you can see below. I think he can be trusted driving, he looks like he knows exactly what he is doing!

Then back to the camp site for some good grub. It was really cold that night, but the only hat we had for him was this old Halloween costume hat, that was meant for a sheep. He appropriately began eating grass!

Pete was one tired little guy after a long day of driving across the safari and having fun at the campsite. What a great trip and fun memory for us all. We are so blessed to be in such amazing country, able to see so many wonders of God's creation each day.

Fun in the Yard

Pete loves exploring in the yard, digging in piles of leaves, picking up rocks and chasing the dog. He could stay out there all day and as you can tell from the pictures, he absolutely loves it. He is also still really proud of the fact that he can stand all by himself, even though he's been doing it for months.

He loves brushing his teeth, this time he found Daddy's big toothbrush while we were packing for a trip and went to town. It is amazing how kids learn things that you never deliberately teach them. Pete just grabbed it and went to town, he also grabbed the tube of tooth paste as you see!

These Cards Are Amazing!!

Pete got another great little music card a week or so ago! He has used played with it every chance we give it to him. Unfortunately, at this point the card is pretty much destroyed, from repeated use. It is so much fun to watch him figure it out and see his little rhythm emerge!
