You'd think William and me would have a lot in common. We both have the same Mummy and Daddy, both grow up in the same house, both are slowly taking over that house... But as William gets older it turns out we have quite a few differences as well; things that William has started doing that I didn't when I was his age.
Like the fascination he seems to have with the toilet. Not that he's a fast learner and is keen to use the toilet like a big boy. Oh no, he's fascinated with putting things into the toilet. Any time the lid is accidentally left up, you can be sure the next time you check there'll be a little surprise floating in the water. It could be his bedtime cukky, or any one of my toys.
One thing we both do is make a bit of a mess with our toys, normally just because we've been playing with them and they've got spread around the house a little. But William takes this even further and actively seems to want to create mess where there isn't any, like with his habit of unpacking cupboards, shelves or toy boxes to throw the contents all over the floor.
When he's not putting things in the toilet or strewn across the floor, William also loves putting things in his mouth. Pretty much anything he can get his hands on is a target, from toys to bottles, but his favourite is his cukky. It's been in his mouth so often that it's now permanently discoloured.
I wonder just how similar or different we'll be as we keep getting older? Only time, and my blog, will tell!
