things gabriel loves

  • mimicking everyone

  • ice cream (with emphatic sign)

  • babies

  • hugging (even when someone on tv is sad, he wants to give a hug)

  • sesame street - has mastered the cookie monster imitation

  • seeing himself in pictures or movies

  • jumping on the trampoline - usually shirt-less

  • dancing with his big brother and sister

  • smoothies and milkshakes

  • sneaking away with condiments out of the refrigerator - it's turned into quite a game. whenever the fridge is open, he'll steal and run.

  • to be sung to

  • looking in the mirror

So sweet!

Abbie is fabulous at mimicking, too. I wonder if its because of the lack of verbal speech? Her world is very visual.

My favorite lately was at a food court in Disney World. She walked it, filled up an imaginary mug at the fountain drinks, grabbed an imaginary snack and stood in the real line. When she got to the front of the line she held up her invisible purchases and I melted with happiness when the worker checked them out for her and handed them back!
