This week Leo has started to grab things that are near his hands. He grabs things with each hand but mostly favors his right hand. The makes me think he is going to be right handed. Whenever you put something on his chest when he is laying down he immediately grabs it and picks it up. Also, if you put a blanket over him when he is laying down he reaches towards it, grabs it with both hands, and cuddles it by his ears like he is trying to get extra cozy!
Leo found his hand/thumb at around the two month mark. He has been trying to practice how to suck his thumb ever since. He has been able to do it a couple of times.
Leo's first "real" smile was at around six weeks old. Silly mama did not write down the date. Both daddy and I were sitting on the couch with Leo and all of the sudden his face "lit up" because mama was tickling him behind his ears. I did not get a picture but have gotten many ever since. |
