Week two day two

Hmmmm.....  Well, Pippin has been more of a playful puppy these last 24 hours.  He loves playing with us, but nips at hands and ears and such.  When wanting us to engage and we're sitting on the couch, he will yip and bark to let us know he's ready to go.  We're trying to redirect his behavior, make an "ouch" sound when he bites and then socially isolate him, but he still persists in the behavior.  I know it's puppy stuff and maybe I'm worried about nothing, but he's been such an ideal puppy for the past week that I want him to continue behaving well.  Right now, he's relaxing in his open-door kennel next to me, but it took him a while to get calm.  Suggestions???
