For the past few weeks Henry has been all about sucking his hands. I've been trying to get him interested in his o-ball! I wave it over his head and shake it. He follows it with his eyes but has never intentionally reched for it. Until today!
I showed him once how to try to grasp it:
He tried to focus...and then he was unstoppable! He tries to grab it every time I put it in front of him! I am so excited. Sometimes I feel like I don't do enough with him to work on his small, large and gross motor skills (along with cognitive too), but today I am that mommy who is going to brag! My baby boy knows how to use his hands (and will only get better at it every day)!
He also is getting really attentive to his play mat and "playing".
I just can't wait to see how fast he changes in the next couple of months. I don't like rushing him getting big, but this is WHY I was an infant teacher. I get to see all the firsts and be so beyond excited and see how excited they get. Watching them think and figure life out is without a doubt the most magical thing you can see. I love living through my kids. I love holidays and birthday parties because I'm so excited for them! And that makes me a nerd! I'm PROUD of it!
Today Vi took puzzle pieces and made a line. Not exciting but she does everything in a line. That includes her food. She puts it in a line on he table and then eats it!
Isabelle has completed a big girl puzzle on her own two days in a row now. She gets SO excited!!
Cushions off couch and chairs behind the couch made for a fun train and then I believe I was told it was a castle.
In me news: I had an awesome smoothie for dinner! :-) hoping to make it out for a walk tomorrow!!
