Colby Loves Airplanes

I had a really cool moment with Colby yesterday. Last night we sat out in the shade behind our apartment and played. He soon started noticing the airplanes flying by and would reach his hand out to them. It was as if he was trying to point, but was pointing with all of his fingers instead of just the one. After one plane, which was particularly close, passed us and disappeared into the trees, Colby looked at me SO excited. He then started making "Ooooo" and "Brrrrrm" noises with his mouth, and was pointing to where he saw the airplane. He traced the sky where the airplane had been and kept looking at me, as if to say, "Did you see that, Mommy?! That was SO cool!" Soon, another plane flew directly overhead and he watched it with his arm outstretched. When it disappeared he reenacted it like he had done with the first plane. Of course, I pulled the video camera out and got him on tape "explaining" what he just saw. It was too cute!

Here's a video of his reaction to one of the planes flying by.
