Little things that make me smile

So there are no pictures for this but I was laying in bed this morning thinking of the little things that Jack does that I think are cute. There are lots of them but a couple really stuck out to me today. I love that my kid is obsessed with socks..... not wearing them but carrying them around with him everywhere. There are only a few different types that I can actually keep on his feet but the first time one comes off I may as well either give up trying to keep them on for the day or put shoes on him (which he is also trying to get off constantly) I think he must have gotten that from me to at least some degree.... I HATE wearing shoes.... if my feet are unhappy all of me is unhappy.
Another thing I think is funny is his love of pillows. whenever he sees a pillow he has to lay his head on it. It is pretty cute. This love began when he was sick back in December I had him in bed with me (the one and only time) and he layed on a pillow, he wouldn't sleep in his crib after that. I thought I had ruined everything with that one night in my bed, but I put a pillow in with him and he went right to sleep. Now I know it isn't the safest thing and that all the literature says that they should only have one small blanket in their bed, but he loves it and he sleeps 12 hours now so I'm leaving it there. So if any of you are witching him and want him to nap... a pillow is the trick.
The other thing I was thinking about the past couple days is the dance. My kid LOVES to dance, he didn't get it from me, I'm very uncoordinated so I don't dance. But ever since he was a couple moths old he would bounce every time he heard music. It is so great now that he is standing it is getting to be more of a real dance.... I keep saying I need to get it on video before it goes away, I charged my camera yesterday so hopefully I will remember to do it today.
Anyway there are my random thoughts of some of the little things that make me smile.
