Out for a picnic on the beach with grandpa.
Owen's fine motor control/dexterity with his hands has come on incredibly,
even just in the last couple of weeks. He can really explore things with his hands now.
He can also take a few sips out of a glass of water, and is 'talking' loads more.
We have also seen the first hint that crawling is on its way.

Owen loves his bouncer, and his skill at using it just keeps improving.
Owen learned to wave this week (which at this stage consists of vigorously
waving his arm up and down from the shoulder!), and his ability to pick
things up keeps improving. He just keeps changing so fast!

Here is Owen sleeping through the lovely views available from the car on our trip.
Owen's coordination is developing all the time! He can reach out and rake toys
towards himself, will reach out for people if he wants them, and can sit and play
with his toys for whole minutes at a time! :)

Owen at the table enjoying his dinner. Owen can reach out and grab bits of food
from in front of him or to take toys and things that you offer him out of your hand.

Owen seems to have come along in leaps and bounds in the last few weeks!
He can now sit up by himself really well and has been experimenting with solid food
(to date: pita bread, broccoli, red pepper (not really a fan), potato and spinach leaves)

Owen's coordination is really developing, he grabs things with both hands
and then inevitably puts whatever he has grabbed into his mouth!
