You have started wanting to stand and sometimes we have a difficult time getting you to bend to sit down. You still aren't really going anywhere yet, but you recently started scooting backwards when you're on your tummy. At least you're getting somewhere and I figure it means you'll figure out how to go forward soon.
Grandma always comments on what a talker you are. It sounds like you have your own little language and you just babble away. We're pretty sure you started saying "dada," though you don't do it very often and that makes it kind of hard to tell. Other people heard it too, so I think we're going to go ahead and say that it's your first word. Although according to your sister, your first word was "careful" and every time she thinks she hears you say something, she decides it's your first word.
You mastered the pincer grip by picking kitty litter off the floor, so we decided to give you cheerios as a much more appropriate item to practice that skill on! You have definitely become much more interested in food now that you are better at picking it up. You still don't eat much food, but you are trying lots of new things.
Dropping things on the floor is a new favorite, so we know you are learning about cause and effect. It's a tiring game for mommy and daddy, but great fun for you. Peak-a-boo is another fun game right now and you can pull blankets off your head for it. You seem to enjoy this game the most with your sister because you always giggle like crazy when she plays it with you.
You also just learned how to clap, but don't do it regularly yet. You still need some practice with that one. And you have started to bounce or head bang to music. It's so cute to watch you discover all the things that your body can do.
I love you so much my sweet sunshine. And hey, I'm only 2 days late with your update this month!
