My Metro-Macho Munchie

Wyatt has discovered that he can take off his own diaper. Even when he has shorts or pants on...he sits down and scrambles out of them and then rips off his diaper. I think I must put a new one on him 10 times a day. He LOVES being naked right now!

By the end of yesterday afternoon, I had given up. I let him run around naked for over an hour while I folded laundry and packed for our trip. Rising to the occasion and trying to be just as silly as he was being, I shot a pair of the girls panties in his direction and hollered, "Hey Naked Ninja! You need to put some panties on!"

I wasn't sure if he would do it. He's never worn underpants before or even a Pull-Up. To my surprise, he sat right down and pulled them on. He was so proud of himself! He ran around the house looking for his sisters shouting "Gurls! Gurls! Yook, I got panties!!" The girls of course, dropped to the floor in a giggling hysteria - which made him dance and prance around even more.

I turned around and went back to folding laundry...contemplating the fact that it was time to start calling "panties" UNDERPANTS in our house. And maybe even purchase a package or two of truck or train or Super Hero ones. While I'm all for Metro-sexualism and men embracing their feminine side - somehow pink and purple High School Musical panties on my son did not sit well with me!

Apparently the Metro panties did not sit well with Wyatt either. Because a few minutes later, he came out of Matt and my bedroom with the wildest grin on his face. I took one look at him and DIED! He had gone into our closet and gotten Matt's cup from his jockstrap and put it in the panties!

"If you're gonna make me wear HSM panties Mom, I'm gonna have to MACHO them up!"

I know I say this over and over...but,
I FREAKIN' LOVE THIS KID!

We are presently on an airplane to Chi-Town! I didn't sleep a wink last night I was so excited. Literally. I packed and wrapped up loose ends until 4AM...then ran, showered and got the rest of the family up at 5:30! I'll probably be a wreck later today...or maybe not. I can't wait to see my sister and get this party started! I can't wait to stand beside her as she becomes Mrs. Paul Suberlak. I'm gonna try and do a few mobile posts from my phone...and I'll be tweeting pics of all the festivities...so check back, and go follow me on Twitter if you want to tag along on our celebration! "Goin' To the Chapel..."
