he's got it

Mason is pretty rad. He has been picking his shirts and working on dressing himself for a couple months now, but today was a first - he 'successfully' put on his own shirt! I had a pile of clothes on the couch waiting to be folded and he decided to pick out his outfit for the day from that pile. I was doing something and when I came back, he was dressed. Sure he chose a swim shirt. That belongs to Andrew. And it's inside out and backwards - but he did it! He put his swim shorts on (also backwards), picked out his socks and put on his shoes (flip flops on the wrong feet). And just for the record, he found a pull-up that he wanted to wear so he has on a diaper and a pull-up. Other than the shoes (since we were going to the zoo, and that just wasn't a good choice) it wasn't worth arguing with him. He's the 2 year old I've read about but never witnessed - Andrew still doesn't usually care what he wears and is very careful to make sure his clothes and shoes are on right. This is fun stuff. : )
