so i don't have any cute pictures to post.. but lately, i've been realizing how many quirks luke has - and they're kinda funny/interesting (to me, at least!) so i thought i'd share.
- he hates for me to get hugs from anyone but him. if we pass someone we know in the store and they hug me, he screams. when heath hugs me, luke breathes in and out really fast and whines and the same time.
- he doesn't like male strangers, at all. when friendly guys at church stop to chat, if they give luke any attention, he grabs on to me for dear life and won't look in their direction.
- he loves our laptop. he can be completely distracted by his own toys, and when i open it up, he ditches his toys and gets here in no time. he'll whine if you don't let him have it.. and when i turn it to let him type, he squeals and grins.
- he never liked to be rocked until after he turned a year old. now, he loves it... and i do too! maybe it's because he's not nursing anymore, i don't know. but i soak it up every time because i've realized how soon the day will come when he's too big to be rocked.
- he has been signing more and more... and when he's flustered and doesn't know what to sign, he just pounds his chest like a gorilla.
- he has a weird obsession with having a clean area in front of him. like the coffee table we have on the back porch.. he has no desire for anything on it, but he has to clear off the table before he'll play.
- he doesn't like the way grass feels on his bare feet. if you try to stand him up in the grass, he holds his feet up and won't let you put him down. we have to put a rug in the yard for him to stand on if he's gonna play in his stand-up splash pool!
oh.. and we went for his 1 year check up a week or so ago. he's in the 25th percentile for his weight, the 50th for his height, and his head size was off the charts. haha :) if there was a number for it, it looked to be about 110%. so he has a biiiigg head.. i love it though!
