Sometimes I think it would be easier to shave a sheep and milk a cow than put clothes on this boy!
It usually starts with him taking his jammies off ... running down the hallway a million times back and forth (naked). WHY TAKE THE UNDERWEAR OFF WTH THE PJ PANTS!??!! I am better at putting his socks on him when he is laying half way off is bed, upside down with his back to me. Socks are on ... so he runs down the hall again. Now he is upside down looking at me between his legs while I put his pants on him. He kicks one leg out one at a time and really thinks he's helping me out. Runs away again. The best part is putting his shirt on. He likes to shake his head really fast and put his arm in his neck hole or whatever hole the arm is not supposed to be in. Runs another lap. By this point he has been threatened with everything ... he should be wondering if he'll be getting lunch.
Brushing his teeth is awesome. He moves his head around so many times and talks, wimpers, grabs things and then throws it. His toothbrush has spent just as much time up his nose than in his mouth. It's just simple luck to comb his hair. At this point I'm just glad he has his unders on ... even if they are on inside out!
After all that, he gives me his signature look ... see above.
This morning he patted my back and said "mom, you're my pal."
He melts my heart.

Super cute Owie!!! I'm glad you are pals!! Your Owie is priceless!!
Thank you for the chuckle of the day for me....That is one active kid you have. Do you get anything else done? Marj
Ha Ha! That sounds so familiar! It has been a pain in my butt getting Ben dressed! Lately I have been letting him do it on his own and his underwear is backwards so he can look at the Batman since it's usually on the butt! His shirts are always backwards! Good thing your pals! That was a great assimilation of what your morning is like!
