Smiling?

I noticed a few of you mention that your lo's have started smiling. When did yours start? Amber is 4 weeks tomorrow and she hasnt smiled yet. She has started using her voice a little bit and has started following people around the room with her eyes and defiantely takes more interest in people and objects, and Ive notived her cries are differant when she wants differant things, so I'm loving seeing all the changes in her each day!! image And she has also started grabbing at things like clothes and her dummy which she didnt do just a few days ago!

    At just over 3 weeks. Got a great one on the weekend when he turned 4 weeks. I just love them!! I swear he tries to laugh but doesnt quite know how to just yet so they are silent smiles.. even his eyes light up!

    Jak does smile, but it's not really at anything yet, I don't think it's a conscious decision! They're definitely not windy smiles anymore, when he does those he keeps his lips together. He likes to talk to things too, like his toys or the side of his moses basket. He's in his bouncy chair doing it now, he's chatting away to the Christmas tree! x x x

    Sophie first smiled at 4 weeks. It was a proper big fat gummy smile, and now we get them all the time.

    Couldn't get annoyed at her when she wouldn't go back to sleep at 5am this morning when she was smiling at me - my heart was melting!

    She grabs away at things now too.
