Anytime I get him up from a nap, he's excited to see me, but immediately turns serious as he has to decide which object to bring with him when exiting his crib.
Immediately following this, he drops said object and begins pointing at anything and everything he sees. It wouldn't be so weird, except that it happens... every...time!
Another quirk, which I'm sure is fairly common, is his "mad dash" (aka speed walk) to any open door he sees. The funniest part is that any "mad dash" is accompanied by what I have termed "take off arms." Both arms simultaneously fly backwards and he is off.
He bounces anytime he hears music, or is asked to by us. However, his bouncing is very slow and deliberate. It looks more like a squat. No wonder he has legs of steel.
Lately when he's been pretty tired, he prostrates himself completely on the floor and pretends to be sleeping. This is a pretty good sign that its time for a nap.
He's become quite the pretend coffee drinker. Whenever Daddy has his coffee cup out, Amos comes up and takes pretend slurps. This is always followed by a hearty smacking of the lips and a "yum yum!"
His new favorite game is "I'll Throw it on the Ground." He entertained himself for almost 15 minutes the other day solely by throwing down and then picking up two coasters again and again. Everything is thrown on the ground. This is something we are working on.
In just 3 short months, another Vance boy will occupy our house. It will be fun to found out how our boys will be the same and how they will be completely different. This morning, we were just talking about how crazy it would be if the next boy actually liked giving hugs and kisses! Amos might not know what think about him.
