A few of his favorite things...

We all have favorites... a favorite song, a favorite restaurant, a favorite pair of jeans, etc. I'm learning by watching Zachary that babies have favorites, too, like a favorite food or toy. Well, as Zachary gets older, it is clear to me that he has a few favorites of his own.

Some of Zachary's favorites include - talking on the cordless speakerphone while holding it himself (hitting the buttons and hanging up on whoever may be on the other end of the line), sitting in his highchair and eating sweet potato puffs (while examining each one before putting it in his mouth), walking (and at times borderline running) with Mommy or Daddy while holding on tightly to one of their fingers, and THE REMOTE CONTROL. This is probably one of his favorite "toys"... it lights up, it has buttons to push, Mommy and Daddy don't readily allow him to play with it which makes him want it even more, and it's a challenge to pick it up sometimes since it is a bit heavy (Zachary seems to love a challenge).

And this is what happens when you take away from Zachary one of his favorite things...

One of Mommy's favorite things in the whole entire world... Zachary, of course!
