No pacifier and no diapers...

Well, it's official...Kyler is a BIG boy!!! After four horrible, terrible nights filled with screaming, crying, throwing ourselves on the (he and I!) and rolling around, Kyler no longer uses a pacifier. In fact, if you ask him about them he will tell you, "Pacie yucky!" and then make a funny noise. He goes to bed with a sippy cup of water...which he throws out against the wall when he gets mad. But it has been a week and he hasn't asked for one. Yeah for Kyler!!!

Now onto the no diapers part of this...Kyler doesn't wear diapers anymore...at least not when he wants to anyway. This last week he has been taking off his diaper right and left. Every time I turn around I get a glimpse of his little bare bottom. And if I am in another room and he does it, I still know because he yells out "Nakie Boy!!!" The other night when my parents were here helping putting the kids to bed and whatnot (which was beyond nice!), my mom went and got Kyler out of his bed because he had been crying for about 30 minutes. She comes out with him in her arms carrying his pj pants and he's got his blanket. What do I see peaking out of his blanket??? His cute little bum! My mom didn't even realize his diaper was off! So like I said we have been doing this about a week now. Last night I just got the feeling to go in and peek on him before going to bed. So I do and the picture above is what I saw. His pants are up by his head and his diaper is off and by his feet. And to top it off...he had wet his bed!!! So, it wasn't like I could just slyly put his diaper and pants back on...no, I had to get him out of his bed, change him and his bedding and he of course was now wide awake. YEA!!! Because of that we were up for another hour and a half. I talked with my mom today and she told me to cut the feet out of his feety jammies and turn them around so that he couldn't undo them. That is a great idea and I would have done it except I couldn't bring myself to cutting the jammies (had he starting doing this the week prior I would have because that's when I threw out his feety jammies with holes in the toes). So, what's my solution you ask. It's really quite simple...turn the diaper around and use duct tape if necessary! It was soo funny watching him trying to figure out how to get to the diaper tabs. It was like watching a dog chasing his tail...round and round he goes, when he'll get it nobody knows!!!
