Ben, Pantless

What can you do when you're away from home and the potty-trainer goes through all the extra clothes?

Go without and go home.  Laugh.  Take a picture.  (Notice his paper "sunglasses" made on Grandpa's adding machine)

I'm linking up with Leila's {pretty happy funny real}.

    A keeper. You can use this one on him when he gets older!

    Great Picture (he won't like finding out about this in a few years!) I have twins and when they were little my minivan had 3 bins-one for each boy- with ziploc bags full of complete changes of clothes. Oh, and a potty chair for no bathroom at the park emergencies! I do not miss those days! Well, maybe a little...

    He wasn't at all embarrassed? My little one almost had the same thing happen to him and the possibility of going pantless had him in tears!

    What a great picture! I was wondering this morning where I first heard about Like Mother, Like Daughter- then I realized it was from you!

    JJ, no he wasn't embarrassed and didn't seem particularly chilly either - that's why I felt free to take a picture when we got home. He just rode home in the car like that and then posed on the front step. Wearing the beloved truck boots helped, I'm sure.

    When I was little I felt that clothing was optional in most situations. Even my nursery school interview. I love this picture!

    Thank you for visiting my blog and giving me the URL to your bread made with homemade starter. My starter is working really well; I am so pleased as I used no yeast at all to get it going. I also took some out to Vancouver Island to my dad who has made wonderful bread and pancakes out of it. I make the bread from the Tartine cookbook - it's a bit fussy but the bread is so amazing. I work a corporate job and have very little time to make wonderful home-baked things, but I always make time for bread :) Cheers.
