The Light Comes On (Again and Again)

Joy is starting to figure out that those hand-things on the ends of her arms are actually useful. When she was in her Jumperoo today, she discovered that if she gave a certain wheel a spin, it made lights and music come on. She did this again and again and again . . .


I couldn't get a good picture of that, but here's Joy giving Mr. Newt a twirl. Notice that she's using her LEFT hand--maybe she's destined to be a southpaw like Daddy.

Joy has also learned to pick up and grip interesting objects.

I appreciate your patience with my maternal obsession over this new hand-usage thing. As a token of my gratitude, here's a picture of Joy just looking cute in her Easter dress.
