Introducing Houdini


Alex has turned into a real Houdini of late. He can wiggle his way out of almost anything.

Five-point car seat harness? No problem. Shoulder straps on the stroller? Piece of cake. Shirts? Easy.

Alex can undo the zipper on his coat in a flash, and I can't keep shoes on him. I swear his ankles are made of rubber. He can take off his pants, and his diaper, of course. That's why he always wears a onesie, though he knows how to pop it open. At least it slows him down enough for me to catch him in the act.

But the other morning when I went to get him up I found this:


These pajamas were still fully zipped, and they BUTTON at the top instead of snap. I thought they were Alex-proof. Clearly, I was wrong. I still don't know how he got one arm out.

Toga party anyone?

Put it on backwards. That is what I have to do with Thomas or he unzips it and gets out of his PJs at night. I have walked into his room in the mornings and found lots of messes until one of my mommy friends told me to put it on backwards. Works like a charm.

OMG. Too Funny. Lila once got out of her sleeper during her nap. When I went to get her out of her crib, she had taken off her zipper jammies and DIAPER! I was shocked.
