a night in the life

And for as boring as our day just was, our night was so fun. As I type this at 3:36 AM, we were awakened to the muffled cries of The Mayor. D went in and noticed The Mayor had peed through this diaper. All over his bed. Thank goodness he has a water proof mattress pad on to protect his mattress, and an even bigger thank goodness on the fact that the water proof mattress pad works. Because there was A LOT of pee. Wasn't really interested in performing our own at home test on that...but apparently The Mayor was.

I worked on getting the bed stripped down, linens put in the wash and remade the bed while D cleaned up The Mayor.

A little back story...well over a year ago, my parents purchased Thomas the Train PJs for The Mayor. It is a tshirt and shorts PJ set. The Mayor still fits in them and requests, quite often, to wear them. Last night we put him in this PJ set and although he was dressed for bed, he wasn't ready to go to bed. For over an hour I had to keep going back into his room and putting him back into bed. He got into everything last night. He took apart a wipe case, got into one of his drawers, was busted standing behind his blinds looking outside. One time when I went in there, I saw a scrunched up diaper in his diaper pail. I thought he pulled it off the shelf and threw it in there. I never thought it would have been the diaper he had been wearing because his Thomas PJ bottoms were still on. When he has taken off his diaper in the past, his pants are always still off. But not this time. That little stinker took his diaper off, but because he loves those PJs so much, he put the shorts back on. He was without a diaper from before 9PM until he woke up crying from being soaked about 10 minutes ago. So, yes, there was a lot of pee.

The Mayor's bed has been remade and he is now asleep. Wearing an inside out zipped up sleeper that he can not get out of. The Thomas the Train PJs will now be archived into the hall of fame only to be admired from afar.
