He was the neatest eater I had ever seen back then.
But then, everything changed. He's now almost three and everything's a little bit different.
You really can't get the full effect here because it was a little bit dark, but he's got cookie frosting and paint all over his shirt.
His face--up to and including his nose is all crusty with old yogurt because he tried to drink his little yogurt tub instead of taking spoonfuls.
Nowadays I have to threaten to take away drinks because he's too busy splashing in them to drink, and anything that can be spread on the table can turn into an off-road track for toy cars.
He's just messy now, that's all there is to it. Maybe someday he'll come back into his original tidiness, but maybe not. We'll see. In the meantime he's cute.

I remember how he was so particular at mealtimes. Great photos...his smile is still the same.
Love to you all

He is definitely cute!
Okay - may I just say that you followed a similar pattern? You were so great at sorting things - in such an orderly way. I have that shot of you sorting the Halloween candy - a thing I realized just in time to keep me from hollaring at you for getting into the bowl by the door. So you were given the job of putting away the silverware - which you did very happily. But after that, it all changed - you no longer were organized, and you no longer were into doing JOBS - for a long time. But see? You've changed again, and look at you now. So - hold on to hope. Some day, he'll own a cleaning company.
