Starting with Brady's birthday party, when he meets new people, he goes through his list of tricks. First he starts with a wave, then usually claps, and then plays peek-a-boo in a flirtatious manner. (Note these tricks are usually reserved for women.) He waved at a man pushing his daughter on the swings the other day at the playground, and the man commented that his wave was like a "royal wave". The funny thing is that Brady won't wave at me. If I come into a room and wave, he claps at me. I'll take that as his super-excited-to-see-his-mother wave.
The newest tricks in his repertoire are cuddles (which I love) and more detailed mimicking. Brady now mimics dog noises, train noises and certain words with multiple syllables (like "Stinky" or "Done" or "Thank you" or "Uh oh"). These come out sounding like "Stin Uh" or "Duh" for example, but they are so cute. But the best is the cuddling. If we are sitting and reading a book or just sitting around, Brady will occasionally sit back and give me a hug/cuddle. It's the cutest thing in the world, and at a time when he's pretty much on the go, it's very much appreciated.
