The rest of the story
of the diaper change. i went upstairs to clean up all the poop i expected to find, and there was none!! ethan cleaned him up, rolled the wipes up in the diaper, closed the diaper in a ball and threw it in the trash. all i can say is, wow. he changed a diaper better than some babysitters we've had...
fast forward to yesterday.
emily came downstairs all excited about a dream she had about chuck e. cheese. can we go there for lunch today?? sure - as long as daddy can meet us there. well, ethan was super-excited and wanted to get morning clothes on as soon as possible. so he got dressed and them i hear - elliot!! come back here and get your pants on! mom!! elliot is running from me and won't let me put his pants on! so i waited a few minutes to see if he could catch him. i went to get them and they were both dressed - and their clothes matched (not each other). ethan proudly told me he changed his diaper and got him dressed - could we please go to chuck e. cheese's now? i checked elliot's diaper to make sure everything was okay - he was clean, and the diaper was put on tightly. let's go!
if only ethan would learn to cook & do other household chores...
clarifying note: only in the past few days have i allowed ethan and elliot to be alone upstairs. don't call cps, we have a camera up there & they are never alone for long. :)

i can not even imagine the mayhem in our household if davis attempted to change lane's clothes and/or diaper. ethan is impressive.
wow! that IS impressive!! go ethan!!
Can Ethan come train David? That is awesome to have such a great helper!
that is a great story (& kid)!
Is Ethan available at 9:30 each morning for Joy's diaper change? Or possibly at 4:30 those are the "dirty diaper" times. What a great helper!
i, also, would like to borrow ethan for a demonstration for stone...
