Crazy J

J makes all kinds of interesting sounds. He can click his tongue. He smacks his lips. Lately he has begun buzzing his lips-a little like a mix between a trumpet player, and a motor boat. He has the most piercing high pitched scream which he emits when he is upset. His incisors came in before his front teeth, so he looks like a little baby vampire.

He does funny things too. He likes to slide things along the floor under his hands. It doesn't matter what the objects are-books, papers, toys, my cell phone, Tupperware lids-as long as they will slide, he will put each hand on something, and crawl along sliding his chubby mits along the floor.

Lately J has begun standing on his head. He doesn't put his legs up and balance in the air, of course, but he puts his head on the floor between his hands, and sticks his bum up in the air in his own version of down dog position. Any yoga teacher would be jealous of that kind of flexibility. We love our little guy!
