Turning into a Little Man

We can not stand how cute he is. His cuteness makes us talk in a voice pitch we swore we would never use. But he reponds to that voice; he smiles and coos back. He has a huge smile that can take up half his face. Sometimes we have little conversations and to the outside world we must sound like whales or birds. The most common comments we get these days are: 1) "He looks like such a little person." 2) What distinctive eyebrows he has!" 3) "His fingers are so long." He's really learning to use his hands - batting toys, bringing things (his lion toy, his fingers) to his mouth to chew on, and he is just starting to explore texture. His body control and core strength are great, and with a little more coordination he'll be able to sit up. He loves to be pulled into a standing position, where he can support himself as long as we keep him upright. He still hates being on his stomach, which makes me wonder if he'll be one of those babies that skips the crawling stage. We should be so lucky.
