"I want to do it!"

Examples of the "big boy" syndrome we're currently experiencing.

• will only brush his teeth with Daddy's huge, Sonicare toothbrush
• wants to scrub his feet with mommy's loofah every night
• determined to eat with his fork, even if he has to pick food up with his hands to get it on there
  
• likes to practice sitting on the potty (like mommy and daddy), though he has not yet gone pee or poo
  
• wants to climb stairs unaided (he will swat me away if I try to put a hand on him)
  
• likes to tell the kitties when they're doing something wrong
  
• is refusing to sit in his high chair for dinner because he wants to be in a regular chair
