Gavin started making this throat clearing noise on his own, but was also quick to imitate me when I prompted him with a clearing of my own throat. Perhaps he genuinely had a tickle, but then decided to play Monkey-See-Monkey-Do. Between throat clearings, you'll see him try to elicit a response from me, first with his lip-smacking kissy noises, and then more subtly by licking his upper lip. He has been chuckling at us all week whenever he sees us copying his lip-licking. If this was a game of Monkey-See-Monkey-Do, I'm not sure which of us was the monkey.
Gavin and Jasper were born to two geeks who apparently spend all their time writing about, taking photos of, and videotaping their kids. This is their photo album, video library, development journal, and daily activity blog.

Traci said... Our son is so ... weird.
Gmummy said... He reminds me of a mocking bird who sits on a fence and chirps through all the sounds he knows to imitate, then does it all over again.
Aunt K said... This video is so hilarious! I'm rolling!
