This kid cracks me up

We heard some banging upstairs in Emmett's room after bedtime. Eric went upstairs to investigate. What he found was that Emmett had taken off his jammies and his diaper (he now sleeps with a diaper so I don't have to change the sheets every morning). He put on two pairs of underwear, his brown "rock star" corduroy pants, his brown and orange flip flops, rolled up his pants, put on his orange bug shirt and put on his superman shirt backwards over the orange shirt. This kid cracks me up.

The brown pants and orange shirt was one outfit he had picked out for tomorrow and the superman shirt was part of another outfit I had picked out for him for tomorrow. He actually does a really good job picking out his own clothes, for the most part. Sometimes, I just want him to wear something else, which is why, tonight we laid out two outfits in hopes that tomorrow I could convince him that the superman shirt and camo shorts would be the best choice.

Back to tonight...
All I can say is that it was a good thing Eric went up to investigate instead of me cause I totally would have burst out laughing and said, "hold on one second while I go grab my camera." I know all you readers (including myself a little bit) wish it had been me however, cause then we would have a picture of this creative little fellow.

Lately Emmett has been referring to his night time sleeping as a "nap".

"Mommy, what are we going to do after my nap?"
"Well tomorrow we're going to..."

It's so cute.

Emmett often wakes up at dawn. The sun is just rising. He looks out the window and says, "It's a lil' bit dark and a lil' bit white."
"It's a little bit dark and a little bit BRIGHT?"
"No, it's a lil bit dark and a lil bit WHITE."
"A little bit LIGHT?"
"No, a lil bit WHITE."
"White?"
"Yes. A lil bit dark and a lil bit WHITE."
"Why yes, sweetie, I suppose it is."

Funny boy! Wyatt also calls bed time nap time... he will say, "it's nap time outside?" And I say, "No, it's NIGHT time outside."
