Favorite thing #1 these days is dogs. He loves seeing dogs in photos, videos, and especially in person. He has semi-learned how to make a panting noise when we ask him what a dog says, but when we actually see a dog, he makes the cutest sound! I need to get it on video soon because it's too cute/hilarious! He jumps/rocks up and down (usually he's being held in someone's arms) while exclaiming "woo, woo, woo" real fast. It almost sounds like a combination between panting and "woof" {somewhat like what you might do if you burnt your finger on the stove and you were blowing on it}. The dog in this photo was in the backyard of a house we are considering buying. He's a white lab that is incredibly good at fetching. Let's just say that excitement would be an understatement to describe how Little Man reacted each time Hugh would launch that big stick and the lab would take off after it {Granny Sandy, this dog is up there with Otis on his fetching skills and enthusiasm.}.
Favorite thing #2 these days is stacking rings. This game entertains him for a long time now that he's able to easily put the rings on and take them off. He is so diligent to put every ring on before he removes any, and if one rolls across the room, he stops playing and crawls over to retrieve it, brings it back, and continues stacking them. It's slightly cute. :)
A few things you may notice from the video:
- His right hand does most of the stacking. I've tested this, and his left hand can stack, but it isn't as good at this skill yet, so the right hand is typically dominant.
- The flat rings are easier than the others {that are more cone shaped} because they have a large, flat edge on both sides.
- He prefers to hold 2 rings at a time (one in each hand) so that he's ready to stack the second as soon as the first is on.
Favorite thing #3 is kissing, but you've all seen video footage of that. :) Anyway, Enoch loves giving kisses, blowing kisses, being kissed.. you get the idea... One thing that has changed about his kisses recently is that they all come with sound effects. He makes the same "m-m-m-a-a-h-h" for every single kiss he gives or blows. It's pretty sweet.
Favorite thing #4 these days is playing "where's the baby?" In fact, it's even more fun now because Little Guy just learned how to cover his eyes to "hide" when we play {we were playing this game by putting a towel over his head and then pulling it down to "find" the baby}. Here's a quick video:
Favorite thing #5 is getting out of the house. Enoch is incredibly social (although sometimes shy), and so he just loves getting his jacket and hat on because he knows we are most likely going somewhere that will have lots of exciting things to see... things like cars, people, animals, etc. He is typically a quiet, observant little boy in public {except for his "off" days, which do come every once in a while}, and he is quite shy with most "new" people until he is able to recognize them, which usually takes 5-7 repeat visits.
