KEEPING HIS PANTS ON
When we started putting Jordan's pants on over his diaper most the time, I discovered a little trick to help get them on.
I usually put Jordan's pants on him while he's laying down, which is normally after changing a diaper, as it turns out. While I shove one leg into the pant leg, Jordan's thought is to (1) put his other leg in the same pant leg or (2) to take his first leg out of the pants while I'm trying to get his second leg in the other pant leg.
My solution was to use his slippers or shoes as a pant leg holder. I pull his foot out the bottom of the pant leg, slap on the slipper, and it acts like a stopper to keep his pant leg from coming off.
After I get both pant legs on and his slippers on, I stand him up and pull up the trousers, no problem.
