the observer

I'm constantly amazed at how smart little b is.  We found out just how observant he is this week.  We put recessed lighting into our living room (hooray for no more dark living room!!!).  The lights are ona dimmer which is nice.  I thought I'd put the lights on super low while I fed the baby in the middle of the night after they were installed.  Little b got so distracted by the lights that he couldn't eat.  And he wasn't just curious about them - he was ANGRY at them!  He laid there, pushed the bottle away, and shouted away at those lights with an angry face as if he was saying, "HEY! I know you weren't there last night - what are you doing there now?!?!"

We ended up having to go in his room to finish eating and go back to sleep. :)

I thought it might just be because the lights were on (low) and he didn't like it shining.  However, the next day, his daycare provider told me that she changed the picture above the changing table and he spent the whole diaper change shouting at the picture in the same way - "HEY! You didn't look like that YESTERDAY!" 

So not only does he observe, but he clearly does not like change and shows it with some fantastic shouting and angry faces.  Ha!  It's quite adorable actually!
