Shark Mouth

Olivia is now fascinated with getting any and everything into her mouth. She tries to eat; shoulders, fingers, noses, and just about anything else within an arms reach. She also can now blow raspberries and does on the back of her hand, on your cheek, and on her toys. Although she hasn't figured out that if she does this over clothing the result is not the same, she just keeps trying. My daughter is not the giving up type, just like her Mama!

She even does a trick or what we call her trick. We learned the term "shark mouth" when we took the breast feeding class in the hospital. We have found this too be very true of little Olivia since the day she was born, not only did she give us "shark mouth" but she shakes her head as if she was attacking her prey as she latches on. It no longer applies to the boob but she now hears the term and does her trick and generally latches on to the closest thing. It gives us a great laugh and we stood in the kitchen repeating this many times..."Olivia do shark mouth!" and every time she would comply. Next time we will catch this on video for you all to enjoy.

Anything goes.

Trying to get close enough to taste it.

Blowing raspberries on it!

Fist of choice.

She wanted to pull the baby close to chew on her too.
