A ham is someone who says or does silly things to be the center of attention. Although anyone can be a ham, you'll often see this with children who are around unfamiliar adults.
That kid is such a ham. When Aunt Lori came over for dinner, he spent the entire time talking in a pirate voice and saying "arr". She thought it was hilarious, so he just kept up his routine the whole night.
