A Few of Your Favorite Things...

Here is the first picture I took of ol' Franco P. on his actual birthday. See that little hand trying to escape the swaddle?

By now, we all now full well that he needed to get in some fist pumps, a trademark characteristic. Often, his fists pump so furiously you can not get a good shot of him. Sometimes it looks like this:

If you are lucky enough to see him fist pump properly, then you will know that what I say is true. I certainly hope this quirk continues, but it might not, and what if we all forgot about it in the end? Tragic. 

That is why I have to document Franco's favorite things as of his nearly three whole months on this earth, leaving out the obvious eating and sleeping and various other activities shared equally by all newborns. Here we go:

**The aforementioned fist pumps, which can also evolve into karate chops

**Kicking furiously,  usually accompanied by dramatic arm movements, but not always

**Wearing mitts:

**Going on adventures, be it to the mall or to eat in a restaurant or to court with his disgruntled attorney mom or to friends' houses. Franco is always up for an outting

**Listening to sports on the television - a trait well-valued in this household

**The bouncy seat so generously leant to us by Auntie Mary Katherine

**The silly sisters (AKA Emma and Gracie) even when licking like the dickens

**Deep thinking and pondering the future - or something along those lines:

Such a long list for such a young little guy! We'll all anxiously await the continuing saga as it unfolds before our very eyes! Stay tuned...

That boy sure can wave those little hands around. I swear they don't stop for a minute. :-)
