[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He sounds very playful and high energy (which must be a challenge when you are very pregnant!)   It also sounds like he's really enjoying interacting and engaging with people right now, so perhaps he's very social or just going through a phase where he's exploring how people react, etc.

Maybe for now focus on activities that are very physical for him (as much as you can, depending on how you feel) or more interactive classes with other kids/people.  Maybe your DH can try to tire him out some with some physical games.  Good luck! [/quote]

Yes, he loves watching people when he's not running off. Haha.  and he gets so excited whenever he go to the playground he starts squealing and shrieking and stomping his feet in happiness as soon as we get in view of the other kids playing. He especially likes older kids and he tries to interrupt their play. Like today, he walked into a basketball game with arms outstretched and the older boys were so sweet to hand him their ball for a few minutes, a mom there remarked on how happy he looked that he was able to get the ball.
