The Latest

So I have noticed that when Dawson finds something new to do or something new he learned he likes to do it over and over until the new latest thing occupies him. So lately, Dawson has a few things he just loves! One thing is saying "Uh-Oh." This is usually said after he throws something down while he is in his car seat, stroller, or high chair. Another thing he is fascinated with is belly-buttons. Yes, very oddly enough, belly-buttons. One day Chris was laying on the floor watching tv ad he crawled up to him and lifted up the bottom of his shirt to discover Dad and had a belly-button. He will do this to anyone now, not just Mom and Dad. My wonderful, odd, belly-button loving child. Moving on, he loves to show DVD's under the oven. One by one he will pull a DVD off the shelf, push it across the kitchen, shove it under my oven, and repeat. This happened when I wasn't paying attention of course. He also LOVES the green glitter icicle ornaments on my tree. They are long and thin and easy to grab and make great noise when you bang them together. Dawson has also discovered what we call the "cheesy grin." When he is in a goofy mood he will squint his eyes up, give us a big gummy smile and laugh. It makes us laugh everytime, which he loves. He will do something over and over again just to make us laugh. He is such a little performer. And last but not least, he LOVES LOVES LOVES his animal book and Elmo. For his birthday he got this big thick book about animals and he will sit there turning the pages making his little noises "reading" and "talking" to the animals. Also for his birthday he got some Elmo's World DVD's from my family and everytime one goes on and Elmo starts singing he gets so excited and starts kicking his legs and dancing. So of course anything Elmo related he loves. He got an Elmo doll from his Aunt Heather and a book from Mommy that he lights up at everytime he sees. You have got to love how easily amused kids are and how much fun they are to watch!
