You're So Vain

Bubba loves mirrors. One of his favorite games involves someone holding him and quickly running back and forth in front of one, as if he's zooming in on his own reflection. Even when he was very tiny and barely had any control of his head, I could stand in front of one while rotating my torso side to side and he would swivel his head so he could watch himself. We would also lay on our backs, side by side on the floor, and I'd hold up a hand mirror and he'd babble at his reflection. Silly baby!

I asked him what exactly was so fascinating about mirrors and made a video of his response.

Another thing he will do when in front of a mirror is to slowly lean forward until he has his forehead against the glass. Sometimes he'll just sit there and watch that "Extreme Bubba Close Up," and sometimes he will give himself kisses.

This video was taken first thing in the morning (hence, the puffy eyes) about 3 weeks ago and I never posted it before. Mainly due to my attire, or lack thereof. Terrible the stuff I'll post on the Internet, huh?
