The first clear sign that Bryan has fully developed the idea of object permanence was when he looked for Grace and I when something blocked his plain view of us. It’s so cute to see him tilt his head just a little to get a full view of us despite the object blocking the view. It’s just so rediculously cute to see his two little eyes peeping over the object! Hah!
Another new development is his accurate and firm grip on “things”. Anything. And he’s fast too (as I am sure this applies to all babies). If he sees something and wants it, the speed in which he goes at it is way faster than my reaction speed to catch him. It’s crazy. And this is all before he can crawl!
I fear for the day when he begins crawling at full speed.
On a similar note, Bryan can now easily take the pacifier out of his mouth, look at it, smile and put it right back. Facinating.
