Andrew is really cute lately--actually, we have thought he was pretty cute since the day he was born. He'll be a 2-year old in 2 months and he's Mr. Independent. Today he wanted to "dress-up." I told him to go ahead. He spent about 10 minutes up in his room trying to pick out clothes. Andrew's challenge is that he wants to wear all his favorite clothes all at the same time. Most of his favorites are pajamas. He also loves his church suit, but I only let him wear that on Sundays. When I could hear him getting frustrated with his clothes, I went up to help. He picked a gray T-shirt with his Superman pajama top. He is wearing a swimsuit on the bottom and these goofy-looking shoes he found in his closet. He wanted socks with his shoes but couldn't decide which socks to wear. He was upset about his bear socks being dirty. One day last week he wore 4 pairs of socks (one on top of the other) because he loved them all so much. I knew if he wore all his favorite socks, his shoes wouldn't fit, so I talked him into wearing shoes without socks. When Andrew can't fit anymore clothes on but still has more "favorites" to wear, he is appeased by being allowed to carry the extras around with him. He carried his truck pajama bottoms around for the rest of the morning.

Later in the day, after Ricky got home from pre-school, Andrew's outfit got even better! Ricky had Hat Week at pre-school and brought home four different hats he had made. Ricky gave this one to Andrew. When I was changing Andrew's diaper, he noticed his truck pajama bottoms and asked to wear them. They are now on under his swimsuit.
