no baby left

as near as i can tell there is no trace of baby left in isaiah. as of last night he's not wearing diapers at all. he's been potty trained for a while, but still wearing diapers to bed. i was hesitant to pull the trigger...not wanting to deal with a wet bed. but he did it, just fine.

not wearing diapers to bed, and getting the toothpaste that you have to spit out, not swallow, were the last things. three months shy of 3 he does everything i do. to my shock he even asks me to leave the restroom when he's using it....do you realize i've been wiping your butt everyday for almost three years? oh well, i guess you do need privacy now.... my 'baby' is no more.

growing up, becoming more and more independant of me...it's been happening since he was born, just feels different today for some reason.

(as i'm typing he just picked up the phone and said my cell phone number.....pretending to give the car shop my number because we were 'bonked'. can you tell what i've been dealing with?)
