All grandmas think their grandchildren are the smartest / strongest / most beautiful babies ever to walk (or crawl) the earth - there's absolutely nothing that you can do that would make them think otherwise.
My mum thinks that Euan is the most perfect baby ever and of course the little bugger acts like an angel whenever she is around, turning back into demon child the second she leaves LOL.
My DS could lift our vacuum cleaner off the floor at 6m whilst in my arms. It's a DYSON! I struggle to lift it up the stairs (when we had stairs)!
So I say it's normal.
Then again, DS has had a crowd of little girls (pre-school age) all cooing over how strong he is when he lifts and carries quite normal things. Maybe he is stronger than I give him credit for? It is scary what he can lift and carry around these days.
He was holding his head from birth, btw. Which I thought was perfectly normal.
