A few questions to ponder:
- Do you slurp when you eat soup? No? Are you sure? I didn't think I did either, until Isaac began eating soup too. He learned that slurp from someone, and Craig doesn't eat much soup. He even does it when he pretends to eat soup.
- Are there any vocalizations you make all the time, probably without even thinking about it? You can't know until you've been copied by a toddler. I never noticed myself doing it before now, but I say "Hm!" a lot, mostly when I'm looking for something (or when I don't agree with something but am too polite to say so). So now if you ask Isaac where something is, he says, "Hm!" and pretends to look around.
- What do you do when you want someone to open his mouth? If you're like me, you open your own mouth in demonstration, then say something like, "Open wide and say aaah!" Last night Isaac wanted me to open my mouth (so he could stick his hand in it), so he opened his own mouth and said, "Aaah!" It was so cute and appropriate that I obliged.
