I guess I should watch what I say
Mary has developed a new bedtime stalling technique...it's called "poo-poo potty." Heck what parent wouldn't give in when their kid says they have to poop? Well, we figured it out pretty quickly that she didn't really need to go, she just wanted to stay up longer. We have her potty right before bed and then we tell her if she needs to poop, she better do it immediately 'cause she's not getting back up. We put her in bed and then walk away as she's crying "poo-poo potty." Night before last, she cried a good 20 min. Last night, it was only about 5. Yea! Maybe tonight...? Don't want to jinx it. Anyway, Doug and I were amazed that she quit crying so quickly last night. He said," do you think we should check on her?" I said," Heck, I don't care if she's sleeping on the floor as long as she's still in her room and quiet." 30 min later, he checked on her and immediately told me I had to see her. There she was sleeping in the middle of her floor. I should have taken a picture. I shouldn't have laughed. Hmmm, maybe I should be more careful about what I say.
