Henry's new thing

Yesterday Henry did something he's never done before, and well today he did it again. Let me set the scene.

Yesterday I woke up, took Henry to the bathroom and got him dressed. I let him play upstairs while I made breakfast. When breakfast was ready he came down and started to sit on the bench, but his shorts were twisted. I went to straighten them and noticed they were inside-out. How strange, I thought. I don't remember putting them on inside-out. So, I pulled them down to switch them around, but then I noticed he wasn't wearing underwear. Now I know I put underwear on. I asked him where they were and he said in the upstairs bathroom and he took them off before pooping... um what? I woke up Aaron to clean any mess left on Henry and went upstairs to visualize the mess. I expected poo all over, but when I got upstairs, it was only in the toilet and his clean underwear was laying on the ground. That was it. Aaron had to wipe his bottom and that was it. Wait, so, when did my boy start getting independent?

This morning we had the same routine. I went upstairs to iron my skirt (yes I really did ironing), and I noticed the bathroom door was slightly ajar. I looked at Henry and noticed his shorts were on backwards. I went to the toilet and again saw what I did yesterday. I took him downstairs to wipe his bottom and again that was it.

I guess it is good that he is doing things on his own, but really, could he have picked something else to do?
