Evolution of Dance

Last night Phillip and I decided that our family was finished with our latest eating experiment: letting Landon sit in an adult chair, with no booster, straps, or anything. He fought so hard against a booster seat of any kind, and for a few weeks, it looked like he was happy with his new chair status. But all good things must come to an end right?

After he refused to sit safely in his chair, we moved him back to the booster. After he tried to throw all of his left0over food on the floor, we also removed his plate from in front of him (he was finished eating and just playing). So basically this was just an exercise in Landon learning some patience, and sitting still while we finished our meal.

Evidently Landon thought our idea sounded boring. After a congratulatory "fist bump" from his Dad for sitting so nicely in his booster, Landon decided to take us down memory lane of all of his party tricks.

He started out with some fist bumps, did some high fives, then moved on to some "cheers" with his sippy cup and our glasses. The montage continued with his authentic referee touchdown signal...and for the finale...the cabbage patch dance!!!

He is such a little comedian, and loves finding ways to make people laugh. I told Phillip last night that I always thought comedians used humor to deflect their own pain, or to get attention...but now I have changed my mind. I think they can be born with the desire to make people laugh! What a nice gift huh?
