LO Quirks

[songbirdsinging55]

Let's hear some interesting things LO is doing. I feel like we are getting glimpses of their personalities now and thought it would be fun to share.

[songbirdsinging55]

Isaac is doing this thing where anytime we eat or drink anything in front of him he whines until we show him what it is. Then as he carefully studies it, he naws on his hand. I think he wants what we eat.
He also hates socks. I always use my feet to remove my socks at bedtime. He has been doing this too.
Only all the time.

Mikey "sings" with his toy monkey that sings the alphabet. He also LOVES to be naked. As soon as he is put onto the changing table he starts kicking his legs like crazy. He makes a lot of funny faces and is always smiling. I just know he's going to be a class clown. He will also sometimes do raspberries when he's eating solids. I have. A feeling my mom is teaching him that to get back at me for teaching my youngest sister!! We're 15 years apart so it was hysterical when I was that age.

littleapplemom- adorable! Love the singing thing :-)

John is touchy/feely. His hands and fingers are constantly grabbing at anything and everything within reach.

He's also interested in what we eat. He watches every bite and drink.

He has a sock monkey that he jabbers and smiles at.

My little lady is grabbing her toes! It's cute except for when we are trying to change her lol

[queenbee007]

RL loves being the center of attention. Sometimes when I'm working at night and DH is holding him, he'll coo and giggle and when I look up he's stares right at me and once he has my attention, he side eyes me with half smile like 'you know I'm adorable, why do even bother working right now, play with me.' The minute I look back down he starts cooing again to get my attention and it goes on and on like this.

Liam plays with his toes all the time, he is constantly kicking his feet up lol
He loves to stroke things with his hand. To fall asleep I give him his love (elephant head blanket thing?) and he sucks his thumb while stroking the blanket. Once he's asleep, I take it away though. Or when he is in our laps he will stroke our forearms, hands, shoulders, whatever lol

He's doing a lot of really cute things lately, something new every day.

[jjh1119]

Oh! One more/ he smacks/sucks on his lips. Totally adorable and endless entertainment for both of us. He smacks his lips and giggles at the sound which makes me giggle then makes him giggle more because he made me laugh then I laugh more. It's a fun cycle really lol

LO loves to suck on either her bottom or top lip but rarely will take a pacifier. She will be so serious sometimes as sea looking around and taking it all in. I think she's going to be little miss independent. I just discovered that she's ticklish on her feet and it's adorable!

[zengal]

Like all of you, I think every single thing my baby does is completely awesome! She "sings" with me, and I can get her to stop whatever she's doing when I do something surprising- she's trying to figure it out. But I love love love it when I pick her up from sleeping (or any other time, really) and she snuggles into me, like she's so comfortable. And so am I

[jfh]

I think he likes how his voice sounds when I pat his back. When I put him on his tummy and start tapping he starts vocalizing - it's hilarious.

[Libby]

jfh that's funny! I was very gently bouncing and she just kept holding the same note and smiling hahah
DD has done the "look" since 3 weeks. My sister and I both do it and can raise our eyebrow exceptionally high. I sent a pic to my sister back at 4 weeks and she sent this back of her and Piper.
She does it when I try to make a funny noise or when she is really interested in something and I LOVE it because it is just like mama!

[rosieb0514]

Coop loves to play with my hair while I am nursing him. Any other time he pulls my hair really hard, but when we are nursing he just runs his fingers through my hair so gently. So sweet.

[briannea]

zengal my LO does the singing along too. She also talks over me if I'm talking to her for an extended period of time.

She also found her knees recently.

Pips is in this must roll over phase. Any and every time I lay her on her back, and she's not in a dead sleep, she tries to roll into her belly. Diaper changing is now a moving sport. She also has been doing this sillly thing where she wants to laugh, but no sound comes out so she just looks like she "roaring". And when she falls asleep in my arms, or when she eats, she must hold at least one of my fingers. In the morning, when she first wakes up, if I'm not awake (at 8 she wakes, eats and snuggles in our bed until I have to get up, sometimes I nod off) she rubs my arm and coos really softly until I wake. But if I ignore her, she screams, and then grins hugely when I open my eyes.

DS thinks it's funny to "yell" at us when we're playing with him. His favorite activity of the moment is airplane and we lay him on our chests in between "flights". If we wait too long to have another flight he does this pretend yell as if he's hurrying us along. He goes right back to smiling once he's airborne. So spoiled already!!

[kaimee27]

littleapplemom, DD does the same thing on the changing table, I think it's so cute!

DD loves to rub her own head while she's eating. She has a ton of really soft hair that nobody can keep their hands off of. It's like she thinks if everyone else gets to feel her hair, so should she. She also does this shy sort of turn her head away and then look back at you while smiling really big thing. It melts my heart every time. When she's not in a good mood, but not mad enough to cry, she just looks you right in the eye and "talks" really loud. She's also started waking up in a REALLY good mood when she gets a good night's sleep. It doesn't last terribly long, but she usually wakes up cooing and squealing. It definitely makes getting up easier.

My LO is on the younger side of the group, born December 2. Lately she's been getting super excited when I get home from work and breastfeed her. Overall she's more expressive, especially when she's happy. She arches her back a ton -- we're in trouble when she starts rolling. Also, she loves to sit up (assisted), stand up (also assisted), and take steps forward (uhm, doesn't she know she's kinda too young for that?!). Overall she is just getting more expressive and that is so super cute. I want to kiss those cheeks right now.

[millm0m]

These little legs don't stop!!! She's constantly kicking and moving them - especially to music! I have so many dance videos on my phone. When she gets excited she'll take in a big deep breath and then wiggle! And she loves holding my fingers!

[jessa1228]

DS loves blowing raspberries and loves it even more if you do it back to him. The other night him and I did it back and forth for a good 15 minutes. He also is trying so hard to roll over. He gets halfway there and gets stuck, and then he'll start like yelling/whining as if he's really frustrated with himself.

[gldnbearz]

She loves kicking her legs. She'll also wrap them around your arms during a diaper change.
