Not literally, though he has discovered that pens make beautiful markings on paper! Hopefully, he won't discover that they do on walls as well.
No, we're most impressed with Xavier making other connections...between actions, gestures, or words. As his dad likes to say, it's amazing how little he knows...so when he figures something out, we think it's pretty cool.
For example, I usually wave my hand in front of my nose and say fuchi (= yucky) when I change his poopy diaper or smell his feet. So now...he thinks this is funny and shoves his foot in my face as he waves his hand in front of HIS face and says fuuu fuuu. Recently, he finished making a caca in his diaper and the minute he was done he smiled and made the same gesture indicating that his diaper now smelled fuchi.
He knows where his nose is and his father's nose and the pig's nose in his books.
He spins around until he gets dizzy, leading with the arm opposite of the direction he's turning...like he's following it.
He tries to snap his fingers when he sings, dances or just bops to a song.
And his happy dance is a stomping of his feet. We think he's losing some of that rythm he had early on.
Below are random pictures taken during breakfast. We had chocolate chip, oatmeal pancakes, can you tell?
"What?!"
"Come on, mami, smell my feet!"
