Nimble Fingers

For your first couple weeks balled up fists is all we would see. Now you are getting older, stronger, bigger, more flexible and ready to play. Your hands are open on greater occasion. While babies typically suck on their thumbs you are finding it pleasing to you to suck the palms of your hands. Every now and then I will find you with your thumb or a finger in your mouth but for the most part it is your palm. 
Your fingers are obviously becoming more nimble because you are grabbing your toy rattle turtle we have named squirtle. You get a good grab on your burp towel from time to time. Your pushing yourself up when we have you on your belly and holding your head up high. You enjoy time in your vibrating chair as you sit with me while I read you a book or we watch some television. You certainly do not like to have your feet covered up although you do not at all mind wearing socks. (which is much like myself). 
You have an appointment with the doctor this coming Monday and I will give you an update on how you are doing after that fact. I imagine they will get a measure of your weight and it is likely that it will be the time for your first round of shots.
