Boxers or Briefs?
So CJ wants to be just like his daddy. In every way. Which is fine with me because more of a good thing is better for everyone. However, I've been catching him with his dad's "underwear" on under CJ's pants. It's easy to catch since they bunch out the back with all the extra fabric. I told him he needs to quit doing that and he replied that he "just really likes daddy's underwear. I like daddy's everything." (Me too on the lateral part of that sentence.)

So daddy took him to the store and they picked out some boxer-briefs for CJ. He was so excited. Why? Because (sorry for the details here, sweetie), but he proudly said to me, "Mommy, do you want to see something so cool?" That can mean something good or bad in CJ's world, but when I said I did want to see, he pulled down his pants to show me his new undies and said, "my peepee is all nice and snug in my new boxers like daddy's." I guess a snug peepee is a good thing?

So then he says last night, "Mommy, can you find me a matching t-shirt? I just want to sleep in my t-shirt and boxers like daddy. I'll wear a pull-up tomorrow." After much convincing we put the boxer-briefs OVER the pull-up.

I resisted the urge to tell him that if he keeps his peepee snug until he's married, THEN he'll be able to wear undies EXACTLY like daddies.

Can I just apologize to everyone, especially CJ's daddy for this post? But it's kind of funny.

What a funny post! I enjoy reading your blog. I have two little girls, my older daughter (5)asked my husband about a month ago: "why do you sleep in your panties?" My husband's reply was "I don't wear panties, I wear underwear."

The things that kids come up with. Last night my older daughter told me that her sister (almost four) is learning Spanish. My husband and I don't even know Spanish! So she is going around the house today "talking Spanish" and asking me if I understand her.

OK, I am still laughing about this one. CJ came over yesterday and was telling us all about how he was now wearing boxers and how Jacob needed to get some too. Kids are so funny. But I have a funny story for you: Renee was helping Wayne do the laundry (yes, I have the best husband) and they were sorting the towels. Renee would say "That's a BIG towel" and "That's a LITTLE towel." Somehow, one of my panties got mixed up with the towels and Renee replied, Wow, Daddy. That's a REALLY big towel!" Ha! I just love 'em.

This may be the best CJ post ever and that is really saying something because I really liked the "China" post.

You know CJ is my hero.

That is friggin' hilarious! I love reading your blog, it always makes me laugh! Xander also prefers boxers since they are more like daddy's.
