Daphne has discovered her hands. Well, is in the process of discovering them, anyway. And it’s one of those things that is adorably cute to watch, hilarious in the seriousness she gives it, and then makes you realize that maybe hands and the ability to control them really is a pretty amazing thing after all. Nothing like a baby experiencing things for the first time to remind you of what you take for granted.

In related firsts news, she also got to try her first non-booby-milk taste. She’s been watching us eat, and enjoying it, for the past few weeks. She’s made a few passing attempts to reach out towards the food, but nothing serious. In particular, she enjoys watching us eat noisy food, and was having a good time watching Jason eat a particularly crunchy and tasty new crop apple. So, when she reached towards it, Jason let her give it a try.
