Spinning, Dancing, and Happy Feet

These days Gardner is funnier and funnier. Of course, as first-time parents, we think everything he does is cute, amazing, and adorable. Often, my husband Jerry looks at me and asks, "Why is he so cute Mama?" I respond, "Because we made him." 

One of the many adorable things he does these days is spin and dance. This boy loves music! When music is playing he will stand up and dance. And by dance I mean bounce his knees. He certainly does have some rhythm though! 

Often we will say, "Spin Gardner, SPIN, SPIN, SPIN!!" And he does... about three times in a circle until he stops or falls down dizzy. We get a good laugh at this.

One of his other "tricks" is to move his feet really fast, which we call "happy feet." We will say, "Gardner, where's your happy feet?" He will move his feet as fast as he can. He is a very happy child. 

Now the only caveat to all of this, is that if we tell you about the funny things he does and have him demonstrate them, he will make us look like fools. That's parenting for you!
