    \n
  1. The Happy Lion<\/a><\/i><\/b> by Louise Fatio and Roger Duvoisin. We read this book several times a day, at Finn’s urging. He just starts saying “Happy! Happy!” until we get the picture. Thanks to Anne Nack for giving us this terrific book!\n
  2. “Dak-oh-Dahs”<\/b> (Corn Flakes) for breakfast. This is Finn’s way of saying “cock-a-doodle-doo!” when he sees the cereal box.\n
  3. Hooks of all sorts<\/b>. He sees them on the drawings of tow trucks in our Richard Scarry books, and has found a few in the back of our neighbor’s truck. He refers to them as “No Pat No,” recalling a cactus-sitting character in Hop on Pop<\/i>.\n
  4. Tubes<\/b>. Paper towel tubes, toilet paper tubes, straws, anything tube-like that Finn can stick objects in.\n
  5. Stroobs<\/b> (our name for strawberries). He really enjoys eating and talking about them.\n
  6. “Peek!”<\/b> He loves to hide behind chairs or other objects and slooooowly peek around the edge, then shout “PEEK!” when we see him.\n
  7. Pow-wow walking<\/b>. When he’s being silly, he kind of crouches down and takes lots of little bitty steps, which makes me think of the Native American dances you see at pow-wows.\n
  8. Daddy blowing bubbles in the bathtub water<\/b>. Finn grabs John’s head and pulls it down towards the tub until John starts blowing bubbles. It looks a bit strange, but Finny absolutely loves it.\n
  9. “Ham and DumDum”<\/b>, a.k.a. our neighbor Kim and her dog Samson.\n
  10. His Chicken Shirt<\/a><\/b>, which, when putting it on for the day, inspires our boy to start saying “bok bok bok!”\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
