"Momma, please buy underwear for me"

Wayne came home from school one day and asked me to buy underwear for him... "Momma, please buy underwear for me".. Imagine my surprise at hearing that. *What underwear? Aren't you my little baby boy? Babies don't wear underwear..... *

Sigh, yes my little boy is no longer a little boy and definitely no baby anymore. He has grown up, now ready to ditch his diapers and wear underwear, like all big boys do.

For the past month or two, he has started his toilet training in school. Thank you, Mindchamps! Mommy and daddy had not done a good job in this area. 

So.. Wayne is now able to let us know when he needs to pee or poo but problem is when he is wearing his diapers he would conveniently just pee and poo in his diaper. Lazy perhaps or maybe he just doesn't want to have to stop while playing with his toys. So we decided we will just have to 'force' him to go to the toilet by removing his diapers. And it sure helps that he actually wants to wear them! Which is partly friends' influence, as he told us that he wants underwear as his friends in class also wears them. He even told us that Conrad has spiderman underwear! Haha.

So adding to his collection of Thomas and Friends pyjamas, toys, story books, luggage, face cloth, bag, clothes, lantern and DVDs .. he now has Thomas and Friends underwear too!
