-turning the light switches on and off (one is harder than the other and he's very frustrated that he can't get it on-but he keeps trying!)
-standing by the window in his bedroom and looking out on the neighboring backyards, watching/following the pigeons as they fly by
-buttons on anything, particularly on clothes
-the keys to the file cabinet-he likes to take them out and shake them. he likes keys a lot in general. he also likes to open the drawers to the other file cabinet and pull out mama's papers
-Jack is getting the concept of puzzles, even though he hasn't quite mastered them yet. he knows the pieces are supposed to fit in the holes
-trying to put his shoes on
-putting his fingers through the holes in My Animals by Xavier Deneux and The Very Hungry Caterpillar, then grabbing his finger with his other hand from the other side of the page
-watching older kids
-realizing that things still exist when they are out of sight (there's a name for that). like the big bottle of vitamins that Jack loves to shake, inside the cupboard in the kitchen. when he's eating breakfast and gets bored, he points to the cupboard and gets more and more agitated until I give him the bottle. I guess this can also contribute to separation anxiety as kids realize that you are each separate entities and that you can leave. however, it's also why Jack still loves to play peek-a-boo so much.
