Amazed

I am continually amazed at what Owen does daily. With him being our first child I am not sure what is developmentally appropriate and if what he is doing is the same thing a normal 2 year old will do. Reguardless, here are a few of our amazing moments in the past few days.
1) Austin was outside washing his squad car. Owen walked up to the mop bucket which Austin fills with soapy water. He looked in it and said "bubbles" and then he realized the bucket was empty. He picked up the soap, opened the cap, turned it over and squirted some in the bucket. He then closed the cap. Austin looked in the bucket and told Owen he needed more. So, once again, Owen opened the cap, squirted soap in the bucket and then closed the cap again. Austin added water and Owen had his bubbles.
2) While washing dishes by hand, Owen opened the dishwasher, took dishes out one by one, put them in the sink and kept telling me to "wash it" each time he would add another dish to my dishwater. Nevermind the fact, the dishes in the dishwasher were clean!
3) I told Owen I was going to take a bath yesterday. He ran into the bathroom, dumped all of his bath toys in the tub and then smiled and said "mama's bath." I guess he wanted me to have as much fun as he does.
4) The phone rang and I didn't hear it. He came running to me with the phone hollering "mama phone!" I know it won't be long before he tries to answer it. :)
I just love to sit back and watch him. I am amazed at how much he is learning through play and how he demonstrates it.
