He's on the move

Peter must have decided to see how many milestones he could hit this past weekend. On Friday, he stood by my parents' coffee table for around 20 seconds a couple times. Then he did it again yesterday. On Monday, he sat in the grass for at least 30 seconds without falling over. If I put him in my lap, he'll sit quite a while. Today, he rolled from his back to his belly for the first time--and the second, third, fourth, and fifth. He occasionally has rolled tummy-to-back since Memorial Day, but hasn't quite figured out that he could really move around if he rolled more than once. He also scoots a bit and pivots. Even without rolling, he can move a foot or so and turn as much as he wants over the course of 10 minutes.

He's also over 19 pounds now and around 27" long (both over the 95th percentiles).

I have a feeling he's trying to match my milestones and walk at 9 months. Oh goodness.
