I am almost 3 months old now and can do many things I couldn't do at first. Here's a list, for my faraway family members, of some of the grown-up things I have done in the last few weeks:
1. I laugh and play with Mommy and Daddy every day. I play with my toys too (sometimes a little roughly but they need to know who's boss)!
2. I have a whole new range of sounds to express new emotions; I coo when I'm happy, yelp when surprised, cry for 'Maaaa' and sometimes, I say 'Hello' (Mashi will back me up on this one)!
3. I wipe my own face with my muzzie or any bit of cloth I can lay my hands on. The naysayers have told Mommy it's a coincidence but she knows better!
4. I indicate when I'm hungry by opening my mouth wide and miming spooning food in. I don't need to tell Mommy when my nappy is full because she has a sensitive nose (although my long suffering expression helps as well, I'm sure)!
5. I grab and guide Mommy and Daddy's fingers into my mouth when I feel like chewing on something because I might be teething already.
6. I like to sit upright on Mommy or Daddy's knee, with my legs dangling, facing forward so I can see what's going on in the world around me (lying down is for babies)!
7. I love my first book which Daddy has got me and I am completely taken with the 'bouncy lamb' and the 'curly snail'.....
I can't wait till Dida and Dadu, Grandma and Grandad and all the other friends and family members I don't get to see enough of, can see me do all these things!
That's right, you do say 'hello'. Or maybe Mommy does and pretends it's you...;)
