Little Imitator

I've said this before, but our little man just loves his big sister.  He always wants to do exactly what she does.  Yesterday he figured out how to wiggle out of the shopping cart seat in which he was firmly strapped because he wanted to get down and be with Hannah!  He imitates her all the time and his imitations have taught him to do some pretty funny things.  Here are some things he does that we think are hilarious:

- Sings the "ah ah ah" song from the Little Mermaid
- Puts his binky in other peoples' mouths.
- Plays peek-a-boo
- Waves bye bye
- Screams when Hannah screams
- Imitates the intonation in Hannah's voice when she is talking
- Does "So Big!"
- Claps and dances to the beat
- Does "roll it and roll it" with his arms
- Gives kisses
- Holds up the remote to the TV as if he is going to turn it on
- Holds the phone up to his ear and says, "Ha!"
- Tries to get down whenever we are holding him so he can be with Hannah
- Scurries to the bathroom as fast as possible if he hears the bath running
- Waves bye bye
- Says "mmmmmm!" when he wants some of your food.
- Smiles and looks away shyly when a stranger talks to him
His imitation skills have also lead him to start saying some words consistently.  Words he says:
- "Uh oh!" (This is his favorite and he often drops things on purpose so he can say it.)
- "Da da!" (No "ma ma" yet,  but at least he's got daddy wrapped around his finger with this one.)
- "Dah Woo Woo" (That's how he says, "Dog, woof, woof" whenever he sees a dog.)
What a funny guy, he makes all of us laugh all of the time.
