Strange days

Odd things happen in the summer when the thermometer reaches triple digits. For instance, Peter somehow ends up in his exersaucer with no clothes on. (Yes, he was wearing a diaper. I may not be the best mother, but I'm not stupid.) Well, I'm pretty sure this was after a blowout diaper and I was too lazy to obtain a new outfit at that particular moment. Regardless, Peter did his "work" on the farm sans clothing.



Charlotte thought this was HIGH-larious and stationed herself right next to him while repeating over and over "Peter's NAKED! Peter's NAKED!"

The next day, we were upstairs in the bonus room and I took off Charlotte's one-piece romper (yes, she does experience consternation while wearing this since she can't reach her bellybutton, but she can stand it for a few hours at a time) to change her diaper. Again, sloth got the best of me and I didn't put the romper on right away. One thing led to another, and Charlotte's dress-up bin came out. She asked for my help in putting on not one, not two, but THREE skirts, a pair of kid gloves, and a fabulous hat. I added the lei and snapped a photo of her saying "cheese".



I swear my children do not normally run around in the nude, but when it's so hot outside I seem to be a little slower dressing them once the clothes come off.

Then, Peter somehow wound up tangled up in a discarded Tinkerbell outfit. Didn't he look fabulous in it though?

Whoa-- you guys sure know how to have fun! I think you're a fabulous mom for letting the kids run around sans clothing. When it's hot, it's hot! Gotta do what you can. Sonia would run around naked 24-7 if she had her way.

I predict that those photos are going to come back to haunt Charlotte and Peter...maybe at a future rehearsal dinner of theirs???? :)

Peter is obviously working on his 'farmer's tan'. ;)

I would like to make a request- would you please keep a camera on Peter during all waking hours? He's just sooooooo close to crawling and we don't want to miss it. That'd be great.

Thanks.
