What's Dane Up To?

Dane had a neutral weekend. We mostly ran errands and relaxed. We could go through the mundane details, or I could highlight for you some tidbits about Dane, too random and minuscule to make it in posts of their own. He's really coming alive and this weekend we noticed so much. Sooo...

What's Dane Up To?

• He tries to sit up from a lying position, but his ab muscles need work and he accomplishes nothing but greater levels of frustration.
• He grabs and pulls at everything - hair, earrings, remotes, drinks, the dogs, clothes, beards, necklaces, baby wipes, Blue, glasses, car seat straps, signs, buttons, curtains, books, blankets...
• He is laughing quite frequently now. It's adorable when he does a full-on belly laugh, although a little sad because it rarely fails to give him an incurable case of hiccups. He does not like this.
• He talks all the time as, if you have called the house lately, you have undoubtedly heard. Odds are you thought this was hilarious. That's because you don't call at 6 am, and because you get to hang up.
• He is as sociable as any 4 month old can be. Aunt Jenny was the first to point out his tendencies to flirt. Then moms, our neighbor, waitresses, his doctor, nursery workers, friends, and strangers. He gets your attention and then plays shy. It is un-be-liev-a-bly precious. And while adults may give him the most attention, he absolutely loves socializing with other youngsters.

Every day is a new adventure in the world of Dane.
