Day 38: Showing lots of interest in new things!

I gave Mikey a rattle today to play with and as soon as I got it in his little hand, he couldn't take his eyes off of it...well, except for the 30 seconds he had it in his mouth! He was so interested in watching it as he moved it around and made it make noise. He is becoming more and more interested in touching things that he sees. We went out to dinner with some old friends of Chris's from Fort Wayne, and as I was eating, Mikey kept trying to reach for my food and my plate as though he just HAD to touch it! I have to be much more careful of not leaving things within his reach that I don't want him grabbing onto–especially my hair!
