My favorite time with Shane is after bath, which is right before his bed time. It’s just the two of us during that time and he gets so happy and playful, crawling all over the place laughing and giggling. He’s extra ticklish in his armpit areas so when I go for it, he just squeaks really loud and doesn’t know what to do with himself.
He’s a funny guy. He loves to play hide and seek (weather we are playing with him or not), and loves to eat anything he can get his hands on. If you drop anything in our place, it’ll most likely ends up in his mouth before anyone can see it. I’ve taken out an ant from his mouth, a piece of magazine cover, to Chloe’s hair bands to name a few. When I spot him eating something and I ask what’s in his mouth, he closes his mouth really tight and runs the other way.
Even though he’s usually very gentle and easy going, he’s shown us his temper too. When I took a pretzel from his hand after his long and tiring pursuit to snatch it from his sister’s hand, he got mad at me. He turned red and cried on the top of his lung, falling backwards on his back. I couldn’t believe it… over a pretzel… he became a beast.
He loves to follow his sister around and looks at her for encouragement. When he’s achieve something new, he looks for his sister for a praise which I think it’s so endearing.
He can say and mean Umm-ma (mommy), A-ppa(daddy), Kka-ka(snack, go figure..), so far.
