April 2010

Above: Happy Easter! Easter fell on General Conference weekend this year. Here are all of our Easter baskets.

Above: Here is Peter's Easter basket.

Above: Pete had a great time playing with his Easter stuff.

Above: I love how Pete's pajama pants ride up on his fatty legs.

Above: Enjoying conference while enjoying Easter.

Above: Peter just had to walk in this little bit of snow. He walked in a perfect rainbow shape so I put my stamp (my footprints) on it too.

Above: This guy loves the great outdoors.

Above: This guy loves to climb up onto the fireplace.

Above: I love those big brown eyes.

Above: On our way to go swimming for the first time. We met a little kitty on our way to the car. Aren't those swim shorts so cute on Peter?

Above: I love that sweet little body.

Above: We got there a little before the pool opened, so we played on the adjacent playground until they opened.

Above: Peter was a little worried about getting in the water.

Above: Peter wasn't a big fan of his first swimming experience. Poor guy!

Above: He loves wearing his life jacket at home though!

Above: He is just so, so cool.

Above: Visiting the aquarium for the first time.

Above: Oh, I just want to squeeze and squish him!

Above: We bought Pete a stuffed snake.

Above: After the aquarium, we went to visit Nammy for a bit.

Above: So big!

Above: Why use your towel just for drying off when it is also a fashion statement?

Above: Just hanging out and lounging around in the chair that Nammy gave me.

Above: This guy thrives off of being outside.

Above: Jeremiah and I have decided that this could be an inspirational poster. Picture this with the caption, "You're never too small to dream big."

Above: This guy still loves to cover his face with his blanket when he sleeps.

Above: Peter is a master stink-eye giver.

Toddler Fashion

I think the title says it all. Should we take a look at some of Peter's own fashion choices?





Above: All hail to the Skeleton Penguin King! The skeleton sweats are from Halloween (it was a cold day and Peter wanted to go outside and it was the warmest and fastest outfit I could find.). As for the penguin get-up, it is a hoodie towel. He usually uses his blue towel, but it was being washed. Peter had just gotten out of the bath and the towel was on the floor after I put the skeleton sweats on him. Peter promptly put the towel on his head and proceeding to parade around for about 10 minutes. All thoughts of going outside faded (well, for 10 minutes at least) as Pete enjoyed this dashing, black, white, and red dressy combination. March of the Skeleton Penguin indeed!



Above: Posing after removing the penguin "cape."



Above: Our trip to the pool was unsuccessful (hopefully, we will find greater success taking Peter swimming in the future). However, Peter can't resist the swim vest I got for him. I keep putting it away and he keeps pulling it out and insisting to have it put on him again. Once it is on, he will proceed to play in it for at least 30 minutes. Every time he wears it, I think of that line from Back to the Future: "What did you do? Jump ship?"



Above: Pete decided to borrow my sunglasses. Doesn't he look cool?



Above: Another example of hoodie-towel-chic. This is Peter's regular towel. He decided to pair it with his pajamas.



Above: I've shared pictures of Pete wearing Jeremiah's snowboarding beanie before, but I particularly like this stylish picture because it looks like Peter is trying to avoid the paparazzi.



Above: I had just changed Peter out of his pajamas and I hadn't yet decided on what he should wear for the day. Pete simplified things by picking out a simple diaper/church shoes ensemble that showed off his adorable baby physique.



Above: This is an ensemble that I picked out for Pete. Peter must feel like I am stifling his fashion because while this outfit is cute, it doesn't have quite the same "personality" as the ensembles he chooses for himself. Oh well, he still seems to be happy!
