1 and a half year videos

Videos from somewhere between 18 and 20 months I think!

Note : I keep forgetting to upload his videos in HD so they are extremely poor quality but I'm not going to re-upload all the ones I already have on youtube.  However, I'll try to remember from here on out and they should be very clear if I don't forget!

Wiping my nose

Tonight Elliott found a tissue on the couch when we were hanging out downstairs watching the Three Musketeers Disney version, and he was laying on my stomach.  So he grabbed the tissue and made a delighted sound, and then started rubbing it furiously on my face and laughing.  He looked very pleased with himself and I'm pretty sure if he could talk he would have said, "Now it's YOUR turn!"  He had an expression of happy vengeance on his face.  I guess now I know what it feels like when I am constantly wiping his nose throughout the day because it is ALWAYS runny!!

Funny things

Recently a few things he's been doing that are pretty funny are :

When I say "ouch!" If he bangs on me too hard or plays too rough he will get really sad looking and stick out his lower lip like he used to as an infant and when I say it's okay he will hold my face and talk baby talk like he's asking if I'm okay

He likes to grab our hands and make us follow him or if we are sitting on the couch he will grab our hands to force us to get up and play with him

He will make fake grunting and loud exaggerated noises when he pretends to help Jared up off the floor if he's laying down, or anything else that would require physical strength like pushing sticks into play doh or pushing down hard on something.

He will see me point at daphne and scold her and do the same.  He does a finger-point and either makes an emphatic noise at her or does his baby version of, "daphne, no!" which usually sounds more like, "Da nah!"

He likes to body-slam us and also run around the house screaming a few times a day playing a mixture of peekaboo, catch me if u can, and just a general screaming volume competition.
