Eyes, shoes and towels

What do eyes, shoes and towels have in common? They’re all things Archie is obsessed with. Whenever we read a book, he feels the need to point out everyone’s eyes. (He also likes to make sure we remember that Grace has eyes.) My mom says this is because he has had so many experiences with his eyes at the eye doctor and with us patching him, etc. Makes sense to me.

Archie loves shoes. He’s crazier about them than a girl! He thinks the very act of putting on shoes means a trip to the park is imminent. He also enjoys trying on our shoes and scattering our slipper collection around the house. (He is very good to bring our guests slippers at the door, which is something polite to do for guests here, even though he sometimes sets them out with right and left reversed.)

Towels. He loves to be clean. Anytime something spills, he says “I towel, I towel.” Sometimes, I think he spills intentionally so he can have a towel. He also wipes his mouth and hands.

This pic is unrelated but it's always fun to have a funny pic!
