At 12 weeks exactly, our little man started grabbing. We were sitting in Daddy’s gym watching him do weights. I had Alfie lying down and I was playing with him. I held my hand in front of his face, waving my fingers and then all of a sudden, his little hand slowly reached out and jerked towards mine. I kept my hand there for what felt like ages as I waited for him to get his hand on mine and then all of a sudden he was on target and grabbed my finger! It was so exciting! 🙂

The day after this, he was sitting in his froggy chair and I was holding toys in front of him and he was grabbing them and bringing them to his mouth. It was the cutest thing. From then on anything that is put in front of him, he grabs to put it in his mouth (although sometimes he just prefers to throw his head forward and just open his mouth)
