Emily has now mastered balancing with one hand quite nicely. She can even reach in and get a toy out. This is a huge step, as taking them all out is a fascinating and time consuming task for her.
Another new skill: clapping hands. She really enjoys this, and does it at every opportunity. I was on the phone with my mother and happened to mention she has learned this. Upon hearing me say "Emily can clap hands now." she started doing it. Kind of a Pavlov's dog type of thing. Michael just learned this week to make the connection, for awhile he was swiping at air, it was pretty funny to watch. But his huge grin makes up for any lack of coordination!
And finally, fun in the playpen. Not only is it a great way to keep them contained briefly, but it serves as a gate from the family room to the kitchen, although Emily figured out this week how to push it out of the way. The first time she did that, she crawled right to me and started clapping for herself. I'm in trouble.....
