These last two days have been quite a milestone in terms of Alvas development. She has managed to:
Grab toys with her hands
Kick toys with her feet
Put toys in her mouth and try to eat them
Roll over twice in a row
Tried to crawl a few times but failing (a bit too early for that)
Also, today I had lunch with my friend Susie who has a 5 month old baby boy. We sat them opposite eachother to see what they would do and Alva was absolutely mesmerised by this young man. She didnt stop flirting and smiling to him (wonder where she gets that from....).
He played it quite cool and mainly sucked on his finger. Then they exhanged a few baby words like "uuuurrgh" and "eeeh". Really fascinating to see how they communicate at that age.
Today she also loved having a bath for the first time. Our bath routines have usually been rather unsuccesful, with Alva crying or looking at us with the saddest face in the world. But today she was kicking her legs and arms in the water so it splashed everywhere (over me!). She laughed the whole time. Amazing what a difference a day makes...
Soon we will be sending her off to college!
