I am becoming more than just a lump these days.....sometimes when I cry, my mom and dad can stop me not by the usual means(the 5 s's, swaddling, swinging, shushing, putting me on my side, sucking on pacifier) but by rattling a toy that makes noise in front of my face. Or by talking to me. I think I get bored and I like getting attention just like my Mommy does. Daddy says he is in big trouble because his two girls can get whatever they want from him just by giving him cute looks and talking in a cute way(my cooing gets him every time!). My Vo(paternal grandma) says that I am very smart because I am so alert and thinks that I will roll over any day now. My Halahbuhji(maternal grandpa) thinks that I am very strong because when he holds me and I get upset, I throw my legs and arms out, arching my body...he feels my strong muscles doing this! I have a better attention span, sitting in my boppy and playing for at the most 20 minutes!!!
When its time to eat, and I am crying my eyes out, my Mommy gets me ready by placing my on the boppy. As soon as she puts me on the boppy and turns me towards her, I know its time to eat! I stop crying almost instantly! Also, when they shake a toy in front of me while I am crying, I get very interested in what they are doing and stop crying as well! Mommy thought that because I now like to play with toys in front of me that I would maybe like my play mat that has toys on it and lights up. Yea, too much stimulation for me at the moment. Not quite ready for that yet!
I love when Mommy and Daddy talk to me....Mommy sees my eyes smiling when she or Daddy talks to me. Sometimes I coo. I really want to smile at them or grab their face with my hands and I try to but if only I had better muscle coordination.....hopefully within the next few weeks!!
