Oh, Reid!

The things that make Reid, Reid...

* grabbing all things orange
* about 90% of the time you can find him holding something in each hand. Once he has "claimed" his two items, he doesn't let go - even for as long as an hour!!!
* walking backwards at least 10 steps before sitting down somewhere
* extending his neck to get in your face until you look him in the eyes when he's trying to tell you something. Eye contact is really important to him! He will often put his hand on your cheek and physically turn your face towards him!
* fascination with toes. He loves to put things between his toes - crackers, small toys, etc. Today he put stickers all over my toes!
* his extremely high pitch squeals (copied exactly from his big sis)
* putting things in holes - right now he likes to put Mr. Potato head pieces into the straws/holes in his sippy cups
* social (not shy) personality that's coming out - in public places he says "Hi" to everyone he sees (some of whom don't hear him bc they are not even close to us) and often surprises people who weren't even looking up
* his HUGS and cuddles are the best!!!! He often puts his head on my shoulder or chest when i hold him. He is much more cuddly than Sierra ever was and we are treasuring it bc I know as a boy that this will not last long
* repeating EVERY single word we say, especially whatever Sierra says - the good and the bad :/
