- 1. The First (Non-Gassy) Smile: Okay, let’s be real—there’s nothing quite like that first non-wind-induced smile. It's like getting a slice of chocolate cake after surviving a keto diet.
-
2. Head Control: The Bobblehead Stage: Remember when your little one's head was wobblier than a Jenga tower? Those days are almost behind you. Cue the virtual choir of angels!
They're Not Crying—It's a Laugh! *Disclaimer: You will cry harder than they do out of sheer joy.*
- 3. Their First Giggle: When you hear that first laugh, you’ll swear they just heard the world’s funniest joke. Spoiler: They probably just saw your dance moves.
- 4. Rolling Over: The Gymnast: Have you seen a tiny human work so hard to roll over you'd swear they were auditioning for the Olympics? You'll wear the camera button out.
The Start of a Little Explorer Brace yourself—the mobile phase is just around the corner.
- 5. The Sitting Duck: Seeing them sit without toppling over is like watching a David Blaine magic trick. Amazing and slightly suspect...
- 6. Starting Solids: A Smorgasbord of Faces: The meal might go more on them than in them. Bonus: You've just discovered the next Picasso!
Slow Down—They're On the Move! Your baby is about to rival a marathon runner without the shoes.

7. Crawling: The World is no longer safe. The baby is now mobile. Ensure breakables are tsunami-safe on high ground.
