Getting Dressed

Brad now likes to dress himself in the morning. When he wakes up in the morning, he comes into our bedroom, and he suprised me about a week ago, appearing fully dressed in his "morning clothes." Now every morning, he gets dressed by himself.... and so I lay out his clothes for him the night before (otherwise he'll decide on his own what to wear). If he had his way, he's wear his Spiderman shirt every day, but if I convince him it's dirty, he'll settle for "pocket shorts" (these are shorts with "super many pockets") and a shirt with a pocket as well. Pockets are very important... lots of places to put things!

Following Brad's lead, Tannis now wants to dress herself as well. This morning she took off her pajamas and diaper herself and came out of Brad's room wearing a pair of his underwear. She's VERY picky about what she wears everyday and insists on picking out her own outfit (I have to hide her winter clothes... the other day she had a FIT when I wouldn't let her wear her winter ski cap outside in 100 degree weather.) If she can't dress herself... she'll often let Brad help her... not me...
