Skills update

Last week Preston showed signs of being able to reach out for things, so I spent a few days trying to train him to touch my nose. After a few days he got the hang of it and I was rewarded with two slobbery hands figuring out my face! (He has discovered his hands and will lie quietly for AGES watching his hands or eating them).

So now we have been trying to get him to hold toys and it is working - he has a couple of soft toys that he can grab and suck on (mmmm) and he looks so adorable when he's holding or cuddling them.

He talks a lot more too - not words of course, but lots of baby noises that are obviously communication - we copy them back to him and get lots of giggles in return. Preston is so fun to play with!
