I am taken by surprise when my son mimics the (obviously odd) little things I do. I see him doing them, think "oh how cute!" and then catch myself doing them later..... and realise that he's just copying me. And he's a boy, which has made the mimicking unexpected in a strange kind of way.
.
Some of the odd things I do:
- I breathe very loudly when putting makeup on.
- I sigh (again loudly) when driving.
- I make an "aah!" sound after taking a sip of water. (How annoying that must be to other people???)
- I say "Mmmmm" a lot
- I wave my free hand in the air and walk around when on the phone.
- I don't point something out once, I tap it a couple of times.
These are only the things I can remember (with my switched off/ on holiday brain at the moment). He's a mini-me! And the question I ask myself is what else is he picking up on? A scary thought!!!

I know, it is so crazy the things they pick up on. I've had the same thing happen with our son. ..And it is scary.
