These are a few of our favorite things

• When after fighting sleep by crying for a while, he gives a sigh of defeat and we know that he's on his way to sleeping.
• The way he grips your finger as if to say "don't ever let go".
• When it's 2 or 3 in the morning and you're completely exhausted and he looks at you and smiles.
• He just discovered that he enjoys his fingers in his mouth. He'll be fussy for you, but you can put him down and he'll calm himself down just by sucking his thumb. (and other fingers)

• When he's happy, he smiles and throws his arms down almost saying "hands down you're the best."
• He will look left and right, back and forth almost compulsively for minutes on end. It's almost as if he sees 2 things, one on each side, that he wants to look at and doesn't want to miss the other thing while he's looking at the one.
• While sleeping in a beanie the above mentioned behavior results in the beanie coming down over his eyes all the way down to his nose, and sometimes he sleeps that way.
• He will mainly sleep in the following position: flat on his back, legs bent, arms back behind him flat. Almost like the police have said "freeze" and that's the way he decided to sleep.
• He has recently developed some dance steps, while standing he has trouble balancing and keeping his legs straight all the time, so goes up and down and all around in his own way.
• He may have the cutest little pouty face in all the land. If he uses that when he's 3 and asks to have something, it's going to be very tough to say no.
• He loves the outdoors, whenever we take him out for a walk he just calms down and takes it all in.
• His eyes get so big when he's excited and it usually followed by THE cutest smile ever. If you haven't had the pleasure of seeing this smile, you are missing out!! Sorry there isn't a picture, we haven't been able to capture a full smile just yet because we are too busy enjoying every second of them.
• He has taken to sticking out his tongue so much so that he is now known as "Mommy's Little Lizard"
