Nathan’s newest “thing” over the last couple days is saying “Ta Da!” when he does something. You know, very important things, like hand you a book, or put a magnet back on the fridge, or roll a car down his toy garage. I have no idea where he learned it (which means probably at daycare), but it’s cute!

He also seems to be really good at memorizing things. Books some, and TV shows. We watch a little TV in the evenings and we’re usually watching the same channel, same show, every day. Since he sees things over and over again, he’s now started saying things along with the show, or singing some of the songs that come on between shows. Kind of neat to watch actually.

Nathan has also started a cute, but painful, habit of leaping onto our laps with no warning.
He likes to “sweep” with a Swiffer mop we’ve shortened. Unfortunately he refuses to do it if there is a pad on the mop, which is why I put sweep in quotes.
He also still likes to play pretend with his stuffed animals. It varies from day to day which one he likes, but he’ll feed them real or imaginary food and cover them up with his blanket.
Which reminds me, for awhile now Nathan has liked to fake sleep by pretending to snore. He doesn’t do it in bed, just at random times when we’re playing. Another of those things that I’d love to catch on video but probably never will. Videotaping him is really hard because as soon as he sees the camera he wants to watch it, which means now the screen is facing away from me and he’s just staring into it and not doing whatever it was that inspired me to take out the video camera in the first place.
Oh, did I mention he’s kind of bossy?
