The right hand has finally discovered what the left hand is doing. And after a prolonged struggle in which the right hand discovered that the left hand is a formidable opponent, perfectly matched in strength and grip -- almost as if they were twins separated at birth -- the contest ended in a tie with both participants exhausted.
Shortly after this photo was taken, the right hand stirred first and after a brief shake, finally defeated the left hand -- moving it slowly, but inexorably towards the mouth, where it was then overwhelmed by a copious amount of saliva. Thankfully, that was when the referee stopped the fight, drying the left hand with a burp cloth and declaring the right hand the victor.
The right hand celebrated by sliding a thumb between the pointer and index finger in what can only be seen as either an offensive gesture or the most brilliant thing the baby has ever done.
