Little Celebrated Milestones

[gratefulgirl]

We all know to celebrate rolling over, grabbing toys, etc. what lesser milestones for you or LO are you happy for?

I nominate head control (less to worry about) and open hands (far less finger fuzz and hand stink to deal with).

gratefulgirl open hands for us means hands in mouth=wet hands. Haha.

Are bocatwins already doing this? DD1 did it at 5.5 mo. and I thought that was early.

She has accepted 3 bottles in a row. No idea why, but yay!

DD does this too!! If she could start doing it at night it'd be amazing. But that would involve finding it in her bed.

For some reason I really liked when I could tell she was anticipating my actions.

Also it was nice when I could hold her on my hip and she would help by squeezing me with her legs so I could hold her with one hand.

Yes! With their Wubbanubs. Unfortunately they also pull them out a lot... but they are getting better at putting them back in.

Oh I can't wait until ds2 can put his pacifier in on his own! He loves to take it out and will try to put it in, but he usually puts it backward.

[spicysalmonroll]

When he semi hugs me! Pick him up and he wraps his arms around my neck and pulls his face into mine. Can't get enough of that!! (Til he grabs and Yanks my hair) lol

[remylove1011]

That she's figured out how to touch my face. When I'm holding her she'll look up at me and reach one hand up to touch my cheek. It's so sweet.

I love this too! I've been holding DS's waist as he stands on my lap, and he'll put his hands on either side of my face and pull me towards him

I like that she lights up when she sees me enter a room:)

Also, she follows my every move. It's cute to watch her watching things so intently.

They have been doing this for a while but when they start to mimic you, stick out their tongue when you stick out yours, it just lets you know they are watching you. Baby boy is now working on sounds. Meaning I pick one I know he knows how to do and we practice these sounds together. We celebrate whenever he tries a noise, any noise!

Plus holding objects. Feels like they are getting more of a hang on how to play with things!

[spicysalmonroll]

When he rubs his eyes when he's exhausted or hugs his Sophie giraffe... I'm like "You're a real kid now, instead of just a little robotic doll!" lol
