Pointing

Quinn points at everything now. Most times he just sticks his finger in some direction without event knowing what's there yet. He must realize we're going to begin naming things that are in that general direction.

He wakes up from a nap and immediately begins pointing in all directions, as if to say "We'll go over there...and then over there...and ooo there's a shiny thing over there and WHAT WAS THAT NOISE - we'll have to go check that out...gosh I've been asleep all this time - how much have I missed?? We'd better get moving!". Does that remind anyone of anybody? :) (not naming Bec's name of course...)

He's just soaking up vocabulary, it seems like. He listens intently as we describe everything. He's keenly interested in all the Christmas decorations, the things on the fridge, the things on the kitchen counter, the unending array of stuffed animals in his room, and, well, anything he can point his wildly waggling finger at. It's fun to watch him discover the world around him.
