More tricks, with song-signs

Also, "o'HOH" for both hole and hose. And when he sees the pile of sand in "Fuzzy Teddy," he smacks his lips because apparently to him it looks like the oatmeal he eats. Plus he kisses the bear at the end of that book where the boy says "Fuzzy Teddy, I love you." AND, now he can request four songs:

Hands on top of head while squeezing eyes into blinks = "Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes."

Softly patting hands together (as if making tiny tortillas) = "If You're Happy and You Know It, Clap Your Hands."

Tugging and yanking on both earlobes = "Do Your Ears Hang Low?"

and . . .

Index fingertips delicately together = "Eensy Beensy Spider!"

I am now required to sing constantly during meals, and if he signals for a song when I can't see him do it he shouts until I come look at his sign. Wow!
