Mr. Independent

Rand's newest thing is "I can do it myself." He can...

- Put his own food into the microwave, turn it on, and take it out
- Climb in and out of his carseat by himself
- Climb in and out of the bathtub by himself
- Help make mommy's coffee and turn it on (turning a 30 second task into a 5 minute torture session for mom...)

Rand has also decided that he is too big for a booster seat at the table -- the fact that his chin is in his food doesn't make a bit of dfference!

I come across his little stepstool a dozen times a day in all kinds of different places (the kitchen, his closet, by the washing machine).
