stupid bloody expression but thats another thread.


Ds4 is 7 weeks and I'm positive he reached out for a rattle today, more than once too.

7 weeks seems raelly really early though.....I'm sure I haven't bred a genius, well not another one anyway

On Babycenter it says they notice their hands at 8 weeks. That's when they stare at them in a way that looks as if they're on LSD.
Batting at toys is an advanced skill at 3 months. Clearly genius material.

Mine didn't reach for anything until about 15 weeks.

It must have been a fluke, maybe just a coincidence that he's noticing his hands and did it while I was rattling the thing inches from his face

7 weeks is really early, isn't it??
