haha, most of our compost is eggshells too. and rotten tomatoes, thanks bloom rot disease!
see, and oslo's gross motor skills aren't so fantastic. and you know what? he's left handed too! WEIRD. dumping and pouring takes a lot of fussing before i remember, and place handles and such on his left side, but he's still not as coordinated at that either. i'm not sure how he developed the hand strength necessary to bust an egg with one hand, because i too cannot do that! but anyway, i've noticed oslo has trouble isolating one foot after another to climb up stairs if he starts with his right, and for some reason he often gets stuck at the top of slides trying to figure out the movement involved in sitting, then unfolding his legs out in front of him, and i think that's part of his lefty-ness.
he is pretty persistent with puzzles however, and i tend to think of that as being part of his "male-ness," lol. not to be a sexist asshole, but his intense focus on lining up his trains, or creating little hierarchies of animals who do certain things together...i just see this as being very linear and not something i can relate to at all!
