She recently learnt a new trick and it's hilarious. I taught her how to lift her legs one day when I we had playtime on the bed. Little did I know that I'd cause her to keep doing that thereafter! Now she really loves to lift her legs in a V and hold them there lol. It's as though she's doing Pilates or yoga. She's got some really strong core muscles! Everyone at home is just so tickled seeing her do the trick.
She can't quite flip yet... And to be honest, we still haven't been giving her much tummy time *feeling guilty* Hopefully she learns to do it soon!
Ooh and she starting to learn how to play on her own! Yesterday we left her to play on her swing and lil soft book for a whole 10 mins! She was really quite content. I recently read that solo play time is crucial for babies because it teaches them to be self reliant and to be comfortable on their own. It also helps them observe and learn from the environment at their own pace. I'm starting to let her play more on her own now... I leave her for short periods of time and always come back to reassure her. So far she seems to be doing pretty well!
Here's my darling at 4 months! (18 weeks).
