- When he's taking a drink, he swallows and goes "AHHHH!" It's also his way of asking for a drink - he'll point emphatically and go "Ahhh!" How on earth did he learn that?!
-He ADORES pillows. Not sure why. He throws them around, pulls them onto the floor, and flops down on them.
-Every time we go up the stairs and he helps me close the baby gate, he gives us a round of applause.
-Obsessed with nightlights - he'll take them and hide them in his room.
-For some reason, he doesn't like to point to things. Instead, he'll take my pointer finger in his hand and use it to point to something. It's hysterical.
-One of our new favorite pastimes is waving to passerby from our front deck. Or waving to anyone, anywhere. Cole has a very enthusiastic wave; so much so, in fact, that he often ends up smacking himself in the face with his arm.
-Cole loves to have his face touched. He falls asleep best with at least one hand pressed up against the side of his face with him holding onto a finger. When he crawls into bed with us, we have to watch because he'll head butt us trying to fall asleep with his head pillowed onto one of our faces. Comfy, no?
-Along the same lines, Cole loves to be kissed on the forehead. He'll come up to me, take my face in both hands, and bring his head to it so I'll kiss him. Sometimes he's a little too forceful...but it's so cute it doesn't matter.
-LOVE LOVE LOVES ceiling fans and lights. But most especially ceiling fans. Seriously, any time we walk into a building, the first thing he looks for is a ceiling fan and if he spies one, he lets out a loud "UH!" (which in Cole-speak must mean "LOOK!") and points dramatically at it. And he'll continue pointing dramatically at it for the duration of the visit, sometimes emphatically smacking us with his pointed finger to get the "point" (haha) across. Not really sure just what he wants us to do, but we're excited that he's excited. One of his favorite places we EVER took him was the ceiling fan aisle of Lowe's - he was pretty enthralled!
-And my favorite - this face:
This is his flirting face - he always gets such a dramatic reaction when he does this that he does it all the time now! But my favorite time was a few days ago in TJ Maxx...we were shopping and Cole was sitting in the cart and decided to do this grin face at every.single.person who walked by. Every one. And every single one stopped and laughed and commented on his adorableness, which of course only encouraged him more. It was beyond hysterical, I was practically in tears from laughing so hard by the time we checked out.
That squinchy face IS irresistible :) That's one cute son you have there!
