A bit more work and he'll be ready to live on his own

Since we’ve gotten back, Charles has been doing a lot more by himself with respect to getting dressed. He can now get his own underwear (it’s in a basket on top of his dresser, so it’s not within easy reach) and socks (in the same basket as the underwear). He will sometimes put on new clothes without prompting, which is actually a bit of a problem if Dad’s too tired to remember what exactly Charles was wearing the day before. Charles can sort of put his socks on but he’s not very good with the orientation (he has a similar problem with underwear). But he’s getting there.

P.S. A completely unrelated picture from our trip. After swimming the creek, Charles was cold so we bundled him up in towels. I wanted to get a picture but he wouldn’t even poke his head out. The J-Mom finally tricked him in to looking out by saying “Isn’t that Jessie over there?”.
