New Tricks

Jack has new tricks! And they all seemed to happen at one time. He likes to play "So Big", and actually plays with us! My dad taught him that. He did it Sunday for the first time, but we thought maybe we just got lucky with it. But yesterday when we got home from school he did it at least 15 times when I was playing with him. It was SO much fun! Personally, he reminds me of Luke Perry in 8 seconds when he does it. He moves his wrists just like Luke does. Have you seen the movie?? If not, you should :).

And with that, he started waving, too. He doesn't wave back every time, but he's doing it sometimes, which is so funny.

He has also started doing this little head to the side thing while he eats and copies me every time I do it at dinnertime. We'll do it 20 times in a row. I caught him doing it last night while we were just sitting on the floor.

Nick got him to give some high fives and low fives at dinner last night, too. We laughed and laughed, and Nick just kept saying "High five!" and putting his hand up, and Jack would hit it. And as if all of that wasn't enough, when he was finished his dinner, we were standing in front of his high chair talking, and Jack reached up to me and said "Mama." Nick and I stared at each other with mouths gaping wide open, and said "Did he really just do that?!?" Now, I'm not getting my hopes up that he actually meant it, or knew what he was saying, but it's still fun to think about. Our little baby is growing up!
