For Finny, a &#8220;kiss&#8221; is really just leaning into the stuffed animal with mouth agape and pressing his face against it. It&#8217;s very sweet to watch, even though he hasn&#8217;t really mastered the pucker yet :).<br \/>\nHe hasn&#8217;t really started saying words, although the one thing he will say, much to my chagrin, over and over, is &#8220;Dada!&#8221; or &#8220;da da DADADADA!!!&#8221; I ask him to say &#8220;Mama&#8221;, but he won&#8217;t really go for it&#8230;But even though Finn may not humor me by saying &#8220;Mama&#8221; very often (ok, *ever*), today he did something even better! We were playing around with his stuffed penguin, and after I asked him to kiss it, I said &#8220;Will Finny kiss Mommy?&#8221; And reader, he DID! Right on the cheek! Woohoo!!! He did it twice in a row (second time on my shoulder, not my face, but hey&#8211;beggars can&#8217;t be choosers,  knowwhati&#8217;msaying?).<br \/>\nPretty great stuff. It totally made my day! I am really looking forward to more Finny smooches.Oh, and maybe the best part is that when John asked Finny for a smooch, it was no dice ;-} (heh heh).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think we&#8217;ve mentioned that Finn&#8217;s starting to recognize words and phrases, and we&#8217;re having a lot of fun asking him to &#8220;kiss&#8221; his stuffed animals.
