Pajamas

Our daughter Victoria (2 1/2) is crazy. We got her some new pajamas because her old ones are too small. The other night I put her in one of the new PJs. Cute shorts and a t-shirt with a rainbow. Target special.

The next morning Victoria wakes up and I’m sleepily feeding her breakfast. Suddenly it dawns on me that she’s not wearing the new PJs. She’s wearing an old PJ dress with some Disney princesses. Hmm. I check with my wife, no she didn’t change her.

When I get her dressed, I put the princess PJs back in her drawer (she doesn’t have a lot of PJs so we’re definitely getting more than one night out of them before washing). That night I try the new ones again.

Sure enough, the next day she wakes up in the princess pajamas. She’s getting up and changing PJs and then going to sleep. Hilarious.

The next night I try again. But this time the princess PJs are in the dirty clothes hamper. In the middle of the night she comes out of her room to get me. She has only a pamper on and the PJ drawer is open. I have to get her back to sleep, so I get the princess PJs out of the hamper.

Last night I just gave in and let her wear the princess PJs again. As I’m putting them on her, she says happily “I like these”.

Yeah, no shit…

    My son Drew (also 2 1/2) is very similar with books. You will hear him on his baby monitor randomly shuffling around his room at night to go to his bookshelf and swap out the book he sleeps with (he sleeps with a book and a stuffed shark). Then he’ll try to “read” the book with his nightlight. He’ll fall asleep somewhere in his room then wake up later on, be unable to get himself back under his covers, and cry until I come help him. Every night. Never fails.
