Recently this "leaps and bounds phenomenon" happened with Ellie. First she shot up about 1 1/2 inches and outgrew all of her 2T clothes overnight (no kidding). Then all at once, she started using the potty independently (yay!), getting herself dressed, recognizing and writing a few letters, speaking more fluently, and most interesting of all...
seriously increased her concentration level. I just can not get over how she labors over her coloring, sometimes spending an hour or more on the same masterpiece. 
Here she is, finally completed with her first masterpiece and she can't even look up at me for the picture, because she's started in on the next one. My baby is not such a baby anymore. :(
Wasn't Adam that way with his artwork, too? I remember him being so much more careful and patient with his coloring than the other 3 year olds.
