Caitlin can already distinguish individual shapes. I know this because since we had her puzzle mat arranged in our living room, she will always look for the fish, strawberry, and lion. There are also numbers and other shapes of fruits and animals on the floor, but she only prefers to play with the three. When she began biting them, we had to re-arrange the puzzle pieces. But somehow, she always manages to find them.
According to this article, babies bind specific features to objects at 7.5 months or just about the same time that we observed Caitlin's preference for the fish, strawberry, and lion. So, even though I am tired of looking her in the eye, putting my index finger on her lips and telling her "bawal isubo yan," I am also happy that she can already tell one object from the other. Good job, baby!

This has been the fourth time that the fish has been re-arranged but Caitlin always finds it.
She fancies the lion's head too - its red eyes, specifically.
This is why we had to re-arrange her puzzle mat often - to save the puzzle pieces from her biting fury.
