Darwyn is barely 3 weeks old and already showing signs of young genius. Like Max, she is very strong and already often holds her head up on her own. When awake she stares curiously around her environment. Her favorite pass time is to lie on her change table and watch the mobile. She already tracks the bears as they circle above her (a skill she has developed quite early as I understand it) and she loves the soft music that it plays. When she is fussy she can often be calmed by the mobile.
Darwyn has shown quite an affinity for music in general. She likes soft soothing songs and will often stop fussing if we play them. She seems to like music much more than Max did as an infant. We have a series of lullabies that she will happily listen to in her car seat, as long as you also wiggle the car seat when ever you are stopped at red lights.
I'm also convinced that Darwyn is already starting to smile. Darwyn stares intently at you when you coo at her. She will sometimes coo in response and once for me and once for Wendy she did a sort of half smile in response to our smiles and noises. I know that researchers claim that early smiles are just some sort of reflex....or that stupid thing people always say about them having gas...but I swear she smiled at me. Wendy even backs me up, so it must be true. Of course, babies aren't suppose to smile until around 2 months old, but as I said, Darwyn is advanced.
