The girl appears to have levelled up again. In the past week or so she's added a whole bunch of new skills to her repertoire.
- New consonant – The letter
L
. Today she just started sayingla la la la la
over and over for ages this morning. - New service – Kisses on request. You ask her
Can I have a kiss
and point to your cheek, she'll smile, walk over and plant a kiss on your cheek. Sometimes twice. - New dance move – Spinning. Sometimes when she likes a song, she'll start spinning. Only occasionally will she fall down afterwards.
- New skill – Get up on sofa. She can now get up on the taller sofa. It takes her a while. Well, she couldn't do it 2 days ago. Only managed it a few times yesterday, and will much effort. Today she can almost always manage to get up. And occasionally fall over on her back getting off. Done that 3 times today, which kind of dampens the excitement on the new skill.
- Enhanced grabbing range – she can now reach more than 50% of the stuff on top of my dresser. And open the drawers.
- Forthcoming skill – blowing her nose. For now, she just holds a tissue in front of her face and makes a raspberry noise. But she’s close.
It's weird how a whole slew of new skills all come at once.
