Grabby

Friday, July 11, 2008

Since Caleb has started grabbing things, Mom has been anxiously waiting for Caleb to reach out and grab a toy that is in front of him. He can grab on to things pretty well actually. But he still does not have enough control or coordination to actual reach out to and object and intentionally grab it. But if he accidentally bumps it, he can grab it. Mom was playing with a rattle with Caleb yesterday and he did grab it with a strong enough grip that Mom was able to let go of the rattle and Caleb held on to it. This is a neat accomplishment for the kid, but I kind of feel bad for him because it only means that Mom will be sticking toys in his face more often trying to get him to do it again.
