Lately, Anders...

Says "Bless you" after anyone sneezes, including himself.
Says "Excuse me" to inanimate objects.
Wanders around the house calling, "Igeet!  Igeet!" until his brother answers, "I'm right here!"
Often instigates wrestling matches and then gets a "bonk" and starts crying.
Uses two emotion words correctly: love and scared.
Refuses to eat basically anything we serve for dinner. 
Whispers "dark, dark" if you take him into a dark room.
Knows all of the color words in a favorite book: Big Yellow Trucks and Diggers.
Says "Blue!" every other time you ask him what color something is.
Is easy-peasy to put to bed for naps and at night. 
Gives amazing squeeze-with-both-arms hugs and giant "mwah!" kisses.
Still loves to swing.
Sometimes wakes up from his naps ridiculously crabby and demanding. 
Likes to pull books into his crib from his nightstand in the morning before we get him up.
Loves to read books and brings them every where he goes (even in the bathtub when he can get away with it!)
Loves to play with his train and makes loud "chugga chugga!" sounds.
Folds his hands to pray before dinner.
Still loves to play with water in the sink while I'm making dinner.
Is going through a "daddy phase" again (which is okay by me!)
Calls everything "Cute!" even things like buses, for one example. 
Gets lots of comments from strangers like this: "Why are you looking at me like that?  I'm not going to bite," because he is so suspicious of new people.
