Goodbye Diapers?!?

It has been almost a month since I have blogged, and I am sure there are lots of pictures I could post and things I could talk about, but I'm feeling far to lazy to do such a thing.

The biggest excitement around here today was Samuel waking up in the morning completely dry. Yesterday he told me that he didn't want to wear diapers to bed anymore. Steve was skeptical, as Samuel's diaper is usually quite wet when he comes into our room in the morning. But now that we aren't quite as sleep deprived as we have been in the past, I felt it was only right that we honor Samuel's request for a dry run ;).

We got him out of bed to pee at 10pm when we headed to sleep, but he didn't need to go. When Shira woke up at 1am (ugh! she's sick again! how is that possible in July? then again, I think it may be teething. after all, she is almost 13 months and still toothless, but I digress...), I took Samuel to the bathroom again, at which he tinkled a tiny tiny bit.

And when he got up in the morning? Dry, Dry, Dry! Woohoo!

So do I try not getting him up at all tonight?

We may have to thank Woodie Guthrie for this new development. Samuel has recently become obsessed with his "Dry bed" song. It apparently appeals particularly to his 3 year old sense of humor, especially the part when the boy says his bed must be dry because the dog didn't pee in it...

Anyway, I will happily listen to that song 50 times everyday (and I probably will have to) for the next few months, if it means goodbye to night time diapers.

Thanks Woodie!
