Mommy's little helper

I don't know if he really knows that he is being trained to help out, or if he just thinks it's a fun game, but we're going to keep going with it!  Owen loves to help unload the silverware from the dishwasher...He passes me a utensil or two and says "thank you" as I put it in the drawer.  Lately he'll tell me "fork", "spoon".  Our next lesson is sorting so he can put them in the drawer on his own, he's going to love it!  He's also fairly interested in setting the table.  The other night he was hungry for dinner and losing patience waiting for Brett to get home.  As a time filler, I asked him if he wanted to set the table..."Yeah".  He did a very nice job and then climbed up in the chair and pretended to eat.  He's so fun!
(Please don't tell me that this won't last forever because I'm going to think like it will!)
Yes, that is my belly that made it in the pic.
Setting the table...
"Since my mom won't feed me yet, I guess I'll just pretend to eat!"
