Copy Cat

There is something I've recently noticed about Cooper. He is a copy cat. He can do just about anything he sees someone else do. If I work out at home to a exercise video, he will watch me for a few seconds and copy my moves. There is a dance studio on the first floor of our gym. On our way out last night the kids stopped to watch and, sure enough, the boy start plies and piques. It's hilarious. It also comes in handy when teaching him things he really needs to know, like using a real cup and silverware! From a very early age he understood how to get the right shapes into their corresponding openings in his shape block and how any mechanical toy works. He just watches us once and then does it. It will be interesting to see where this skill takes him in life. Hopefully it's not as an Elvis impersonator on America's Got Talent!
