We all know about those terrible 2's. How bad, really? Well, its not that its 'bad', per se, just strange. Peculiar.
How does he get the idea to do that/say that/eat that/wear that/play with that/want that in the first place??
* He won't drink from a cup unless it is completely full to the rim. (This is not fun for mama or daddy).
* He will extort guests into giving him highly-coveted snacks from the pantry, and say it with gusto allowing no guest to refuse his sweet phrase, "auntie XYZ, I have an idea, I want some goldfish!!".
* He is the only one allowed to turn the page of a book. Even if that means he has to come to me from across the room while I'm reading a book to the baby.
* He won't sit down to eat his snack unless every part of the bottom of the bowl is covered.
* He claims that his socks hurt if they are not on properly, ie, seams must be in place.
* He will not eat food that is mixed together, ie, peas with corn is a no-no. Must be peas on one side and corn on the other.
* He will not eat french fries that have the potato peel on them, he claims they make him cough (although I've never heard him coughing after eating them).
* He drinks the bath water :(

Hilarious! It's normal to see anal tendencies during the anal-retentive phase. But the anecdotes are hilarious nevertheless. Funny how some of these tendencies persist into adulthood for some... ;)
