is there any delay in his achieving milestones like sitting,standing,walking,speaking. does he also mutter when he giggles or seems as if ge is talking in himself. if yes he may either have some intellectual disability or another psychiatric illness. if all above questions answers as no then it may be normal also. i would suggest you to get him checked if there is any doubt
