And I noticed alittle over a week ago (when playing with her) that she tracks things with her eyes very well. Although I still don't think she notices tons around her just yet... I wouldn't worry about it... Its when babys/toddlers continue to get far behind (reaching milestones) and cant catch up that people worry. Every baby is different and reach each milestone when THEY are completely ready.Honestly, Joel is doing fine...But if your concerned just bring it up to his doctor the next appt. I am sure they will reassure you he's doing just fine :)

I'm not sure if it's normal but she still doesn't do the eye contact thing much...she's too much of a busy body and she's 10 1/2 months.

He would sometimes make eye contact, and sometimes track things with his eyes. And sometimes just let his eyes roll around looking at nothing. Over the course of the next few weeks he more reliably started doing those things. I think it varies, and I wouldn't worry about it yet.
