New J.O. firsts, at least for me
Today was my first day with a lot of playing with J.Oliver since he returned from Brazil. He has a lot of new vocalizations, including a back-of-the-throat trill that makes him sound like a flock of parakeets. He grabbed and held onto his feet for the first time that I've seen and made the first moves toward crawling: while sitting up again me, he struggled to lean forward and down onto the tummy-time posture he now tolerates and even enjoys for substantial periods of time. He spends most of the day with two or more fingers in his mouth and will pull mine in as well. Too early for real teething, I think, but maybe there's some movement down in his gums. We usually swap them for a pacifier when possible. Less messy, I guess is the reason. He also really enjoyed a bit of up and down, lift and fall kind of play. Leda has told me that while in Brazil he was developing a taste for a little bit of rough-housing. He can't roll himself over yet - the only "can possibly do" at four months milestone he hasn't achieved.

Hmm... is Mr. Joaozinho wearing Air Jordan mittens in that last picture in the 5th month folder? Interesting... :)
He is SO cute.
