They had a busy week, each morning they played on the floor and practiced reaching for toys and sitting. Clare has just become interested in her toys, actually reaching with purpose. Her favorites are the cellophane book, the giraffe that chimes/rattles, and her ‘My First Doll’. Gail was a great napping partner; she helped Clare nap each morning and afternoon. Gail also taught Clare how to truly enjoy a bath; every girl deserves a good bath after a long day, or morning as the case may be. Clare has also started talking a lot more, Gail swears she said 'I love you'.
Gail and Greg bought Clare a jump-a-roo this week. Greg put it together and declared that there were activities galore, perfect for Clare. She still has a bit of growing to do before she can touch the floor, until then we've put a pillow under her - she has yet to figure out just how to bounce, but she does put weight on her feet.
Clare has been taking to eating her hand, we're not thrilled about this so we've been replacing her hand with a sucker each time she does it. (Neither of us are fond of the words pacifier/paci or binki so we call them suckers - no we're not giving her candy just yet :) )
I caught Jeff teaching Clare how to play the PS3 this weekend. It helps with her hand eye coordination, right?
