Abbie is the funniest thing. For the last few weeks (about three), she has been fascinated by her little index fingers. She looks at them with a very serious expression on her little face, she touches their fingertips together, points to things with them, and laughs. She has taken to tracing objects with them. When we read, she will point to something on the book, or she will trace the edges of the book, sometimes even the images. When she plays, she will often pause to touch the toy with her index finger, ever so delicately. Abbie'd also do that with my me: she'll touch my eyebrows, my lips, my chin, my ears, whatever she is close to. It's so sweet. She even did that with the phone: pushed the buttons with her little index... The power of imitation? Who knows! But it's cute :-) She seems to be pondering her big world so hard. Abigail and her daddy have been playing "piggypiggypiggy" for the last few days: he will say piggypiggypiggy in a funny voice and touch her nose with the tip of his finger. She loves that! It makes her laugh, or at the very least she blows raspberries the way she normally does when she is excited or happy. So, piggypiggypiggy, daddy touches her nose, and she will reciprocate and touch the tip of his. With her index finger, of course!
