Grabbing

We're buzzing with excitement in our house tonight. I put this giraffe toy on Robert's chest and he grabbed for it. He was able to get it into his mouth too. He's getting so big. Sniff sniff. Clara would squeal with joy and clap for him every time he put it in his mouth. It's so much fun watching her enjoy being a big sister.



He started noticing his hands and feet last week, so I figured he'd be grabbing for things soon. It was so cute to watch him. He'd lie very still and just stare at his hand. When he moved his fingers you could just see the gears turning in his little head trying to figure out how it all works.

He's very close to grabbing his feet now too. He's pulling his legs up in the air and watching them closely, but he can't quite coordinate his hands enough to reach the squirmy little boogers. Instead, he's grabbing hold of his knees. Won't be long, I'm sure.

How adorable. you really caught him in action, Kelsey. He is growing so fast, it is hard to believe. Clara is surely being a wonderful big sister too. I love you. Nanny

Don't let them bug you about that reaching thing, Robert. I can only reach my knees too!
