At about 6 weeks, Opal had found her reflection in the mirror, and was
interested in looking at dangly toys as well. She was getting pretty good
at stuffing her hands in her mouth, although she hadn't quite figured out
orientation, so sometimes she tried to stuff the back of her hand in her
mouth. She was down to spitting up like a normal baby most of the time. She
still had fussy periods; usually we could calm her by bouncing her in her
hammock, often lots of squeaking would help, but sometimes nothing worked.
We bought more toys with squeakers in them. She went to her first
party at Easter, and we applied for her
US passport. At 6 weeks exactly she stayed with a babysitter for the
first time (her doting grandfather).
