- Sophia responded to sounds right from birth as her father can attest. As they carried her to me for the first time Kurt said something and she very clearly recognized her daddy’s voice and seemed to be trying to find him. It must have been all his yelling into my belly while I was pregnant.
- At two to three weeks of age I swear she had authentic smiles, not just the gas induced type.
- Somewhere between three and four weeks Sophia could hold her head up for quite a while. We never timed it but it seemed like a long time for a baby that age. She could also turn her head from side to side when on her belly or back.
- Five to six weeks she “discovered her hands”. She will now suck on her fist, wrist, and thumb (I think that one time I saw her with her thumb stuck out was probably just coincidence that her thumb was sticking out).
- Around six weeks she began spinning around in her bed. No, I’m not talking Exorcist like spinning. I mean that if I lay her parallel to the long side of the crib she will migrate and might be parallel to the short side of the crib. She also learned to push herself up from a sitting to a standing position, lock her knees and hold her weight in a standing position for a few seconds while we hold her by the armpits to keep her upright. She’s a strong little girl!
- At seven weeks she began her baby babel with, “ngun” and “agah”. She smiles a lot more (she’s awake more) and will smile when playing peek-a-boo. I have also heard her laugh in her sleep on two occasions. She has yet to laugh while awake though, so I’m not sure that she’s actually laughing.
