taking out the trash

big guy has recently become obsessed with the trashcan. He loves throwing things out and so far he's only thrown out trash or recyclables. If there is a paper towel I've just used, I can hand it to him and say, "please throw the paper towel into the trash." And he'll gladly take the paper towel, run to the trashcan, lift it up, put it in, and close the lid. then of course he is very proud of himself! And this morning I heard the lid open, I look over and he is putting the recyclables, which are right next to the trashcan in. very cute. I wonder if throwing things in the toilet is next, which would definitely not be cute!
