This type of characterization is indirect characterization and uses a character's actions to tell more about his character.

The reader is told Peter's actions, which include not getting up and waiting for his sister to get the remote. He even watches a boring show because he doesn't feel like getting up. In this way, the reader can characterize Peter as lazy.
