Well, it's funny, but every kid's different.  As a father of three, I
remember that our first seemed to want to crawl out of her crib from
day one.  She couldn't' do it, of course, but even before she could
lift her head she seemed to be squirming about, eyes wide open, trying
to get a different vantage-point of the world.

Our second one really didn't give a damn.  She just kind of lay there
and cried a lot (and now that she's a teenager, no that much's changed
<LOL>).

The third one - hell, I can't remember the third one - we were too
busy trying to deal with three kids and two jobs to notice what she
was up to.  <vbg>

It's also funny how the photo quotient drops with each child.  First
one, literally hundreds.  Second, maybe 100.  Third, well, my camera
was stolen, and I took a while to get a new one. <g>

Mind you, Claire (#3) is now the camera hog - loves the camera, and
loves dad to take her pic, so she's more than made up for the surfeit
of infant photos...  <g>

cheers,
frank
