Show off and Birthday Stats...
After an iChat session last night with the grandparents where Isaac showed them all sorts of new rolling tricks, the hits just kept coming today. Isaac Anthony has learn three new tricks in one day, which has to be a record of some sort. He did the following today that he has never done before:
1. He made a monkey face with his lips and then blew air out from his cheeks.
This was completely unprecedented. It is not something we really do to him or in front of him. Also, he has not done anything like this in the past. Today he just did it.
2. Separate Legos.
This is more expected as he has been working up to this for some time. All of sudden today he just reached and slowly took the pieces he wanted off the tower I was building him. He looked at them and then PLUCK, PLUCK, PLUCK...he got them all.
3. Ate off the table.
He doesn't really like his high chair all that much and today I took the table part away and just scooted his chair right up to the big people table. He sat there a few seconds, looked around, and then he grabbed the puffs on the table and his drink. There was no lead up to this either as we have never brought him up to the table like that before.
He is holding out on us, I just know it. He can talk, I am sure.
Now if he busts out Liszt's Tarantella di Bravura:
then I will be surprised. Can you imagine his tiny, little chubby hands bouncing across the ivories? Hilarious.
Also, it was Mom and Poppa Dom's birthday today, so Happy Birthday to both of those wonderful people. And just so you know, the chance that any one person you meet is born on your birthday (which would include your children, assuming b-days are evenly distributed) is: .003% or 1 out of 367 (duh on the actual numbers, I just thought the percentage was neat). But here is a curious thing: you have a 99% chance of having a match with just 57 people, and a 50% chance with only 23 folks. Did you know there was a whole set of mathematical formulas dealing with this phenomenon?
