Problem Solved... I Hope!

Tyler has been having issues lately... issues concerning his clothes and his diaper. These essential items seemed to bother him. So what is a boy to do? Here's Tyler's answer:
YOU GET RID OF WHATS BOTHERING YOU!!! It was hard to get mad at that naked boy because he was just so darn happy (even if he was standing in his own pee puddle.) On several occasions, I'd find Tyler naked in his bed and I was puzzled at how he managed to get his shirts, pants, and diapers off. Unfortunately, there were some occasions when I came in his room to find the most disgusting mess to clean up. (I won't go into complete details, but I will say that these messes included other substances that should be contained in his diaper.) After one too many emergency baths and loads of washing blankets and sheets, I resorted to diapering Tyler like this: As you can tell from his face, he hated having duct tape on his diaper. He's one strong and determined little boy. That little stinker figured out how to removed the diaper even with duct tape on it! He's a true escape artist I tell ya. So after some discussion with my dear mother, we came up with this idea:FOOTY PAJAMAS PUT ON BACKWARDS. I have to dress him like this for nap time and bed time now, but so far it's working. Hallelujah!!! I'm so thankful for footy pajamas now! We haven't had any messes to clean up in his bed since, but now we're starting to potty train Tyler. We've had some success! Keep your fingers crossed for me, please!

Oh my goodness, what a crazy boy! I can't believe he got off his diaper with duct tape. What a good idea with the pjs. Boys are soooo mischievious!!

I love it! It looks like he likes the pjs better than the duct tape. :)

this sounds all too familiar. didn't this happen with brian too? glad you found a solution.

Becky- Yes, Brian did the same thing, but not as bad as Tyler. Brian only did it twice and the duct taped diaper trick worked for him.

So funny! I had to do that for one of my boys too.
