The Preposterous, Perpetual, Shenanigans of Pearson

Tried to find a "p" word like shenanigans but nothing seemed to fit!  My son is crazy.  That's the only way I can describe him.  Everyone gets to see the loving, sweet boy Pearson is.  But no, just wait, I plan on exposing him...He is downright crazy (or basically an almost 2 year old).

Scenario #1 - For the last couple of weeks, off and on, he wakes up crying and is soaking wet.  No, he's not peeing so much that his diaper is full.  He has found "himself" very fascinating and keeps himself busy so much that "it" comes out of the diaper and when he pees at night, he gets wet.  He gets changed and goes back to sleep. (don't worry, I found a solution to this today- onesie under pj's - totally obvious, but oh well) Last night I made the mistake of putting him in a one-piece with a zipper.  This morning while I was watching TV with Owen, Pearson managed to unzip his pj's and take his diaper off and ran around the entire house naked and laughing up a storm!  He loves being naked but I've never seen him run up and down the stairs and everywhere in the house naked. I'm sure it won't be the last.

Scenario #2 - Pearson thinks he is muscle man.  He is constantly hitting things, picking things up and throwing them, making grunting noises, etc.  He has now ventured into picking up his push toys and slamming them down to the floor.  No smack on the hand or time out has solved this.  It is clearly a goal of his everyday to see what he can pick up and slam down.  I have a feeling Owen is somewhere on his list!

There are so many more "shenanigans" and I'll keep adding them as time goes on and try to throw in a picture or two here and there!  As crazy as he is....I love him so!
