Vision

These are some of the things he likes to look at. Top row, L to R: Whenever we skype with folks he looks at this disorganized shelf of stuff. This is what he sees when he's on the changing table. If he faces the wall or if I'm nursing him on the bed he looks at this wall; he especially likes the light cord and its shadow. Middle row, L to R: T.V.,  vertical blinds, ghetto-mobile. Bottom row, L to R: Gaucho Marionette, the window in our front door, my shelf of yarn.

Aki Bear loves looking at things. Especially light and shadow. He love his ghetto mobile, which is all black and white. He also loves looking at this Gaucho marionette that we have hanging in the living room. He also stares at the window in the door. Today he was staring at my yarn which makes me think he might be starting to see color! He loves watching the T.V. too. When we go for walks he looks up at the trees and sky. When we went out to dinner with the birthing class friends he and one of the other little boys were being held by their dads and they were both looking up at the same thing - perhaps it was a tree or maybe a lit sign above a storefront, whatever it was it caught both of their interests!
