That is quite normal.  It simply means you have logged in from the GUI login screen, and you've got a terminal session open.  If you start another terminal session, you'll see a 3rd mention of "peter".

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ who
egreshko :0           Mar 16 11:07
egreshko pts/0        Mar 16 11:07 (:0)
egreshko pts/1        Mar 16 11:07 (:0)
egreshko pts/2        Mar 16 11:07 (:0)

I've logged in, and I've got 3 Konsole sessions.
