26 Months

Once upon a time a wonderful little boy was born.

He was showered with so many gifts, we don't actually remember where this bear came from, but it became his favorite.

(New Cubbles)

The boy loved the bear so much...

He ate his nose.

He chewed his ears.

The bear had to be sewn and sewn and sewn again.
The bear's "fur" went from beautiful golden and brown to a dingy grey from so many trips to the washer.

We bought an extra bear, just in case the old bear was lost and a little boy freaked out.
But there would be no fooling this little boy about his beloved "Cubblesie".
Would you be tricked?

(Old Cubbles)

Now this past week he started begging to wear big boy underwear.
He even climbed his dresser to get them out of the top drawer and put some on!
As busy as we've been I just didn't feel like dealing with potty accidents.
But I finally caved.

(Examining one of his rewards; a dinosaur tatoo)

Still not sure if it's such a good idea.

It would be nice to have only one kid in diapers, though.

Now I understand why people complain about that.
