A week full of progress!
- Mya has much more control over her head these days. She can raise her head, turn it from side to side, and even control putting it down again (well, sometimes...other times we have a nose-dive).
- She sees things at increasing distances now. She will sometimes follow us with her eyes as we walk by her, or follow the toys that we pass in front of her.
- She's finally getting eyebrows! They are still faint and sparse, but they are coming!
- Mya isn't quite reaching for things, but she will grasp things that brush by her hands. She's grabbed hair, glasses, clothes, and my bottom lip (ouch)!
The family grows!
