February 1997

Peter, 6 months, with Paula Peter, 6 months, in jogging stroller Peter, 6 months, on bed, with toy keys Peter, 6 months, on the lizard quilt Lynn made Peter's growth chart

In these February pictures, Peter is six months old, having grown to twenty pounds on mother's milk alone. It's not true that a big baby needs to start solids early! Here, for the amusement of our families, is a copy of Peter's growth curves. He continues to be exceptionally long and relatively lean! (I used the growth chart from Lewis Wasserman's Baby Booklet.) At this rate, if he stays at the same growth curve (a highly questionable assumption), we might expect him to end up over 6'4", and he might pass my height at the age of eleven or so.


1996 pictures of Peter and Will!

Will is 4.5 years old in these pictures, Peter from a week or two to two months.
Peter and his Grandmommy, August 1996 Peter on Matt's Shoulder, October 1996 Matt outside with Will and Peter on his lap, September 1996 Paula and Peter on the rocking chair Peter sleeping in his carseat/stroller, age two months Peter, almost smiling, at age 2 months Peter in the big bathtub

There are more pictures in Peter's birth announcement, August 12, 1996.
