Conor loves watching Orla play and he loves it when he thinks that she's watching him. The other day he was happily laughing and bouncing away in his jumperoo while she was in the living room with him, then when she left the room he burst out crying! Today they both had beef tagine with home-made flatbread for dinner. Orla had to be cajoled and bribed into eating hers, but she did at least try it which is progress. I dipped Conor's bread in the gravy and he sucked it manically until he couldn't grip the bread anymore. He also had a good suck on a bit of beef. Conor's first word will probably be Orla.
