My independent boy

Onegirl inspired me to write an update about what E is up to right now. I am terrible at keeping track of what he is doing. Currently I have snippets written down and kept in different places.

27 1/2 months old
He still loves the moon (has to point it out in books and in the sky.)
Likes to eat playdough (ugh) and uncooked dough when we are making pizza.
Is afraid of his electric trains but likes us to turn them on for him.
Loves his "kitty cat" a soft toy kitten which he carries around everywhere.
Likes to introduce his cat to salespeople and strangers at the shops.
Says "Mummy!" with great satisfaction and pointing to me.
Says "Yes please" when he wants something.
Current favourite foods are bread, scones, milk, yoghurt, vegies, olives, vegemite on toast, zucchini slice and sausages.
Likes to pretend to be a dog "doggy is getting dressed", "doggy is having a bath", "doggy is brushing his teeth." Yesterday he was a horse.
Waves and says "Bye I'll see you next week!" when he gets into his toy car.
Loves books, his current favourites are "The Gruffalo", Hairy Maclary and "Guess how much I love you".
He knows all of his books by heart and will recite bits from his favourites at random.
Loves puzzles, the ones with lots of pieces.
Knows his ABC.
Can count to twelve.
knows his colours.
Makes pictures with his alphabet, letter and shape magnets on the fridge.
Is allergic to mosquito bites.
Likes to scratch himself everywhere in the bath.
His hair grows really slowly.
Prefers to play in the bush than play on the equipment at the playground.
Is very independent.
His favourite word is NO.
He doesn't like getting in his car seat.
He loves it when people sing to him.
He loves to go in Dad's shed and help Dad with things in the shed.

[Edit] He just started jumping with his legs together today! (Whilst saying NO, he didn't want to get in the bath)

Aww this is such a great thing to do. It is so easy to forget even if you try. I wish I had written more down; but I can start now! :-)
