Yesterday morning the kids had gotten up – I got up to get some cereal and juice for them – and then went back to bed to start ‘waking up’.
Not so different from any other Saturday morning.
Except I hear Andrew fidgeting in the hallway with something.. so I go to see what he’s up to… Oh and, of course – take pictures.
The rest really speaks for itself.
Yep: By the time I got to the hallway, he already had one screw off. He said he needed to see behind the vent…
Honestly, Joe and I think he found the screwdriver, and proceeded to the nearest screw he could reach….
I didn’t quite understand – but he was very determined, and I figured he couldn’t really hurt much with me standing there.
He was SO excited that he found one of his Transformers Rescue Bots books down there (there is about 1/2” of open space between the carpet and the bottom of the vent – so things can slide through there – news to us!)
And when he was all finished, he put it back together. All by himself.
Craziness.
Maybe Its time to start hiding the screwdrivers…?
In other news: Ethan learned how to peel bananas on his own: which has lead to four bananas eaten today, and likely no poopy diapers for a few days…
I may need to get him some prunes.

Wow, that’s cute! Maybe he’s thinking about becoming a mechanic or handyman when he gets older!!

ha ha….. I missed so much by not having a boy 🙂

Wow! Clever! It’s always so exciting to see them do new things all by themselves. I wouldn’t worry too much about the bananas. My son went through a bananas and toast phase, but never had any trouble in the diaper area. 🙂

Lol! How funny! I bet he was so happy that mommy let him finish getting in there and putting it back on like a big boy.Smart kid! I had a girl and my sister had 2 girls so we never had experiences with boys.My 2 neices do some pretty funny/naughty things too.:)

gonna be a little worker, reminds me when my son was around 2 1/2 he took our vacuum cleaner apart, the sad thing was his daddy couldn’t put it back together and today he’s always tingering with something
