She changes by leaps and bounds. Today Claire decided to spend nearly all the day on her stomach, rolling and wriggling her way around the room. Her ability to grasp objects seems to have improved overnight. We had dinner at friends’ tonight, and Husband introduced her to his glass of water. She took a few sips. Later she was on my lap and I was holding my glass of water. I lowered my hand slightly and she grabbed at the glass with both hands to pull it to her mouth. So I assisted, and she sampled several sips more. She also grabbed at everything in front of her: my placemat, my plate, my fork. She even managed to get a fistful of food (couscous and chicken), but I wiped it off quickly. Husband went to check on her a few moments ago, and she was asleep on her tummy for the first time, her face turned to the side and her arms situated perpendicular to her torso, with one stuck between the crib slats. It was a happy, happy day all around.
