Joshua Cake and his development

Eye-Hand Coordination
Reaches with her eyes first, then her vision guides her hands to precisely grasp an object. Turns and shakes the object. Begins one-handed reaching for toys; may transfer objects hand to hand, then put in mouth. Hand begins to adjust to shape of object when reaching. Enjoys grabbing another person's hair, glasses or necklace and enjoys grabbing her own feet to suck on her toes.
Thinking Skills
Compares part of self to an object to differentiate himself from objects outside in the world -- for example, sucking on his thumb, then sucking on toy to feel the difference. Learns to anticipate the result of his action -- hitting a dangling toy will make it swing. Adds new elements to speech, such as yell, purr, blow "raspberries," and smacks lips. Mimics adult expressions and gestures as he babbles. Listens very intently to the human voice. Develops rhythmic dialogue to take turns in "conversation." May vocalize to draw his mother's attention when she is conversing with someone else. Vision is improved to adjust focus to near and far. Developing depth perception. Sees in full color; likes orange, blue, green. Watches and follows a familiar person leaving the room. Looks where you look.
Body Movement
Can lift chest higher off floor by pushing up on hands. May creep or "commando" -- crawl a few feet when on tummy. Enjoys changing body position and moving. Leans head forward to grab toes when lying on back. Can hold his entire weight on his legs when supported in a standing position. Helps pull himself to a sitting position by lifting head and flexing elbows. Enjoys sitting propped with pillows. (Note: It's not safe to leave baby alone in this position.) Is too active to stay in infant seat. Babyproof the house now!
Emotional Development
Indicates discomfort by pulling, poking or scratching at self. Shows dislike by pushing things away from her. Explores genitals by poking and pulling. Enjoys loving exchange with caregiver during feeding time. May increase sucking time at breast or bottle. Wakes quickly in the morning. May comfort herself by playing with a toy before you get her from the crib. Hesitates and studies people outside her immediate family. Has attention span of 10 to 15 minutes to play with toys alone. Gives easily read behavioral cues. Extends hands, legs and body to you for "pick me up"; looks down to floor, squirms and fusses, meaning "put me down"; expressionless stare means "I'm bored"; cranky and nothing soothes means "I'm tired." Likes to play peekaboo. Learns to cough at will in order to attract attention.
