Dirty Diapers and Imagination
We've seen a little imaginative play with the boys but it's developing more and more. Over the weekend we were watching tv and Dale kept trying to get out all the diaper stuff. Hubby kept yelling at him to stay away from it.
A little while later I see that Dale finally got the wipes and diapers out. He then proceeded to take my old cabbage patch doll's pants and diaper off. He got out a wipe and he wiped her off. Took out another wipe- wiped her back side off. Then he took a new wipe and wiped again. He was putting the "used" wipes in the "dirty" diaper. He tried to fold up the "dirty" diaper but he couldn't get it to close. He ran it over to me and flung it at me like he was holding the dirtest thing in the world. Then he tried to get the new diaper on her.
Oh the look of concentration on his face! Priceless! We were cracking up, especially when Chip came over and helped hold the doll's behind in the air while they got the diaper in position.
Sometimes when I can't get them to stop playing long enough for a diaper change- I'll grab and Elmo or Cookie Monster toy and "change" their diaper to show them how fast I can do it. I never in a million years expected to see them try to change my cabbage patch doll's diaper!!
