Though people have been very nice to us for the most part in the other states we've lived in, I normally experience this niceness in the form of overheard conversations. Meaning that I'll be in line at the store and hear the people behind me say, "Oh, what a cute baby." "[Insert person's name here], isn't that baby cute." "Look at his eyes/smile/face, etc." And because of strange social etiquette I am supposed to pretend that I don't hear these comments, because that's what humans do in confined spaces like elevators and grocery store lines.
Here in Virginia, people say "Hey, you're baby is so cute." "[So-and-so] tell the lady what a cute baby she has." Subtle, but different. This will take some getting used to.
This picture is what G got into tonight. We pack the toys away, he cleans out the box and sits in it himself. Awfully cute. Also, if you know whether this new niceness is a regional or a rural phenomenon, please feel free to comment.

He has the perfect little round head! He's growing up and changing so fast...
I think if you compared that middle pic to one of you at his age, I think you'd find you look a lot alike! He has your expression and nose! Tea, don't you think that baby's cute?
He is really cute! You knew that already but he really is so cute! :) I can't believe you live so far away either, what a fun adventure! As far as people saying things...I usually tell people to their face if I think their baby is cute so maybe it depends on the person.
