Things That Make Me Laugh

Josh prefers that Abram calls him Papa.  Lately Abram calls him:

• Buddy
• Dada
• and my personal favorite ‘Josh’*

Helping:  Abram has started helping pick up after dinner.  We’re trying to teach him the art of holding things with two hands but he’s just not catching on.

In the mornings when we get him out of his crib he’s usually stripped off his PJs and is down to a diaper or his onsie.  He holds up his pajamas so proudly like a cat presenting a mouse.

He calls belly buttons , ‘bunons’

He likes to try and share things like his toothbrush with everyone who is around him.

If we let him, he would brush his teeth 8-10 times a day.

He knows way too much about electronics – literally as I am writing this he came up and plugged the power cord into the laptop.  About two minutes later he unplugged the cord and tried to plug himself in via his ear.

Abram has learned to use the phrase ‘One Mo’ – one more, while reading books before bed.  He looks at us with a furrowed brow, slightly crouches down, holds up his index finger and demands 'One Mo?' but says it more like a statement than question, then he nods his head and takes off for the book shelf before we could say no.  He got so good at the one more routine we had to come up with the 'Last One' phrase so that he knows we really mean business about the last book. 

He loves to dance and shake his little booty.

Abram is learning his colors.  The only reason that we think he is learning them is so that he can effectively tell us what type of ‘PADOUGH, PADOUGH, PADOUGH’ he wants (playdough).  The child loves playdough more than bathtime - which is a lot.

Abram loves to wear hats - he has a couple of actual hats but he can improvise as well, underwear, bowls, scarfs, playdough and food.

Here's some shots of my favorite guys modeling Abram's favorite accessories - hats and glasses.

 

I could go on and on but that's it for now.  He pretty much keeps us entertained all day.
