Tuning her skills

Josefine has been tuning several of her skills. Today I caught her following a fly. She followed it for several minutes, flying around the room, walking on the window (1.5 mts from her)and when she would 'loose' sight of the fly, she would look around searching for it. Also the other day, Jason and Kaio were playing soccer downstairs (we live on the 5th floor) and I pointed them out to her and she opened a big smile when she recognized them and followed them playing around! She claps her hands nicely together and when we join her with the clapping she gets very excited and smiles even more! She also waves to people! (she looks like those chinese cat dolls)Which is generally followed by a big smile!
She loves to sit (by herself) and play with things that are offered to her, although she does need 'new' toys to keep her entertained for longer!
This week she had another cold. It seems she has has colds on and off from her first week of life! (we had a break during the summer here in Brazil). She tends to get all stuffed and has a runny nose! Luckily she has managed to learn how to breath through her mouth when her nose is blocked, although it breaks our heart to see her sick like that! Last week she also had conjuntivitis (which probably came from Kaio), but which was better in 3 days!
Kaio loves to play pretend.. he loves being 'capitao gancho' (captain hook), Bob the builder (her puts on a hat and 'builds' houses) and the lobo mau bonzinho(the good bad wolf). He is very perticuliar in how he wants to arrange things (he uses chairs, pillows, other toys to build his ship, house, truck, etc)
Some pics:
1)Kaio helping with Josefine's bath. You can see she is sitting up nicely in it! (and does a lot of splashing!)
2)Kaio and Josefine playing in the new 'play house' build buy Bob the Builder (aka. Kaio Bernard!)
3)Kaio 'driving' his truck!
4)Kaio combing Josie's hair (she is not sure what to think about it, but he really enjoys it!)
5)Josie all dressed up for the cold!!
