Clover's First Laptop

This week we saw lots of changes in Clover.  She has been very quiet this week and more shy than normal around people she doesn't see very often. She seems to be spending a lot of time in thought.  I wonder what she is thinking.  She has also had some trouble sleeping a few nights and has gotten to sleep in my bed.  I think it may have had something to do with a bad thunderstorm we had.

Now, when she wakes up, instead of crying to tell me she is awake, she will look at her musical seahorse...for a long time.  We haven't gotten her any crib toys yet, but have been looking into them.  Johnny had ordered her a really nice thing called Symphony of Lights.  It is a sun with a smiley face that has different colors of rays.  You squeeze the a ray and it plays music.  When the toy came, it had a sideways smiley face instead of a straight on smiley face.  They changed the look of it completely.  He sent it back and is trying to find an old one.  She has been fascinated by her relefection in the mirror or other glass in the house. She is getting better with eating baby food and better at waiting for a refill on a bottle.  I think her eyes may be turning from blue to green.  It is hard to tell because some days they will look very blue and some days greenish blue.

Last week I saw a little laptop from Vtech that just seemed what she needed.  It has big buttons and plays music and lights up. It seems to be the most simple out of all the toy laptops.  We got it for her this weekend and she immediately got very excited.  She doesn't usually get excited over anything right away.  She knows Mommy and Daddy have laptops and she has tried to play with ours, but  now she has one too.  She quickly learned how to push the buttons and play with the mouse.  The more she played with it, the more excited she got.  It made me so happy to see her excited about it and even more happy to see her learning from it.
