Quirks

cedenton · July 2013

Okay, what does your LO do that you think is their own unique little quirk?

My DS is obsessed with holes. Loves 'em! Also instead of exploring things with his pointer finger on his left hand, he always uses two fingers. Only with the left hand, though. He points at you with both fingers with his left hand, too. We always jokes that he's saying, "peace, yo!"

C crawls around saying, "eh? Huh?" all. The. Time.

DS will not put his knees down on hard flooring (tile, wood, linoleum, etc.) He totally Mogly Style (Jungle Book) crawls unless he is on carpet then its back to normal crawling.

DD is obsessed with balls. She walked around with a small one in her hand most of the time. She always looking for or pointing them out going "ball, ball, ball". She had a meltdown at the farmers market when I wouldn't give her a ball (it was a cantelope!).

DD will go over to a toy and drag it back where she was sitting like a spider taking prey back to its lair so she ends up surrounded by stuff.

She also somehow mastered the art of "psych" comedy where she'll pretend to offer you food and puts it all the way to your mouth before quickly putting it in her own. It's her favorite.

She does the psych thing too but with food, soothers and kisses. It's really funny.

Koa only says the "uh" in "uh oh". I think I've heard him say the whole thing twice so maybe he just prefers the shortened version.

She points at everything and says "dat." She also loves to empty her toy bin and throw the contents all over her room.

nopegoat · July 2013

He goes around saying "hii" (think Sloth from Goonies type voice). He likes to look at you and scruntch his face and poke his lips out. Little weirdo lol.

J gives people "the look". And then he laughs. This is "the look".

rainedrops117 · July 2013

We make a stern "uhhh" sound when he's about to get into something naughty. He then starts wagging his pointer finger and shaking his head and says, "No no no no". The kid knows!! Tsk tsk...Cutest darn thing!!

Haha, that reminds me of the "Blue Steel" face from Zoolander, that's hilarious!!

DS is a paci boy, he has it in his mouth a lot. When he wants to nurse, or if he sees something he wants to eat he spits his paci across the room, and then looks at you waiting. Cracks me up every time!

You know the tower of rings toy for babies? DS takes the rings and tosses them behind his back. It's the funnies thing.

DD likes to pull all the DVD's off the shelf. Once she has done that she will grab one and crawl around with it under her hand. So she basically slides it around on the carpet. Very weird.

DS does this with his books. Takes every last one off his book shelf then slides one around under his hand every where he goes.

HoneyBunn24 · August 2013

Jacqueline flails her arms and her face goes all crazy...and sometimes for now reason at all. We joke and say she's going to go "spider monkey" on someone

cedenton · August 2013

Y'all have some crazy babies.

The whole sliding something around thing is actually a more efficient way of crawling. They don't have to lift their hands off the ground so they can go faster and use less energy.

Charlotte has too many quirks! The main one lately is raising her arms up and then expecting you to do the same.

T does this with his books too! Lol

Also, this kid loves blankets in his face. Even in his carseat, in 100+ degree weather. I keep them away from him and somehow he gets his hands on them!

Oh and he uses his feet to grab things. That he got from me hahaha!

rMe6411 · August 2013

My mom and I joke how she is hoards things. She stuffs toys everywhere and always has multiple things in her hands everywhere she goes.

Tula214 · August 2013

If you stack things, J has to knock it over. He can be throwing a fit, but if I build blocks he stops, and goes to knock them over.

Crossingfingers · August 2013

Carson likes to "trust fall." He will hold onto me then stand, then let go, raise his hands way over his head and laugh like a maniac as he falls down on me.

DS is obsessed over his "mute buttons" aka pacifiers. I will find him in his crib with one in his mouth and one in each hand.

@MeganRod I have a picture of DS like this.

Grant is obsessed with wheels of any kind. He crawls up to parked cars to touch the tires, turns his trucks over to make the wheels spin, and goes completely crazy when a car is actually in motion. He starts kicking and waving at the driver. It's pretty cute.
He also has a toy piano that he pounds on and then looks at us and throws one hand up in the air like he's given the performance of a lifetime. This can go on for 20 mins. Naturally we clap and yell for him so it can get really quite exhausting

brandyleighxx · August 2013

DS loves anything on wheels. We have a ton of toy cars because I have 2 stepsons, he "drives" them all through the house making a car noise.... I don't even know how he knows what a car sounds like. He also dances any time there is music, no matter what kind of music or what he's doing, he starts rocking.
