Well, he is two, so it's not unusual for him to need to change his clothes. But today it's funny. The first part funny ha-ha, the second funny weird.
Ethan saw one of the other kids at preschool use the big potty without a special seat. So he's been determined to do it. It's funny to watch him get himself onto the toilet. He scoots all the way back and sits on the back edge. Sometimes without the benefit of a stool to get there. Impressive, until today. Today, Ethan fell in. I managed to keep myself from laughing out loud while I pulled him out, dried him off, and changed his wet shirt. (Yea. He really fell all the way in. Only held up by his armpits and knees.) Luckily, he climbed right back on and used the potty, not afraid of it. I guess this means I can't tell him he won't fall in any more.
His pants survived the potty incident because they were around his ankles. But they didn't survive naptime. Ethan must not have fully drained himself after falling in b/c when he came out of his room after naptime, his pants were wet. Not soaked, but wet enough. So I changed him and went looking for where the accident occurred. I'd been hearing him for a few minutes before he came out, so I knew it may not be in bed, but the spread pattern suggested that it was. Nope. Dry sheets. Even a dry floor in the spot where he occasionally sleeps after rolling out of bed. And I could find no sign of wetness anywhere. I'm still confused and can't really believe that Ethan had a fully contained accident. Weird.
So that's why my son is wearing completely different clothes than when we started the day. At least it was a good day, so all the wet nasty clothes aren't making me more frustrated.
