Charlie's quirks

Charles has a couple of interesting mannerisms.

1. He does not like me to cut his sandwich, he wants it whole. He then eats two sides and the middle of the sandwich but leaves two adjacent sides perfectly untouched. He's been doing this for probably a couple of months now.
2. He does not like to sleep in his toddler bed. We always start him in his bed, we lay him down, sing to him and give him kisses there, but as soon as we leave the room he grabs his blankets and climbs out of bed and finds another spot. Usually during nap time he'll sleep under his bed. And at night a lot of times he'll sleep in between his open door(I think he likes to be able to see and hear us which is why he picks that spot. He will not tolerate having his door closed, ever.) or some other spot on the floor. Every once in awhile if Scott and I forget to close our bedroom door before we go downstairs to read or check emails, we'll later find him asleep on our bed. We've been much better about keeping our door closed recently because he has gotten a hold of pens from our headboard and drawn on pillowcases and other things.
And this picture is just for fun because I love how his cheeks are hanging out of the bottom of his towel and yet he's completely oblivious. :)
