Pick your battles

Scene: Charlotte and I are in the bathtub together. She points to my nipple and then to hers.

Charlotte: “Mommy…mine is red likes yours.”

Me: “Yes, Honey.” (stifling giggle)

Charlotte: “When I get bigger, mine will get bigger like yours.”

Me: “Yep.” (she will sorely be disappointed if she inherits my cup size)

Charlotte: “Mommy, daddy said I can pee in the tub.”

Me: “No, you cannot pee in the tub.”

Charlotte: “But daddy said.”

Me: “Daddy lied.”

Me: “If you pee in the tub, you will pee on me.”

She splashes to the back of the tub.

Charlotte: “Ill do like this.” and waves the water in the opposite direction as if pushing it away.

Me: “No, Charlotte, if you pee in the tub, ill get out. Then we won’t be together.”

Silence.

She farts.

Me: “Charlotte, you know you can’t poop in the tub, right?”

Charlotte: “Yes, we only toot in the tub. That’s it.”

Whew. That got scary for a minute.

    That is too funny. Are you going to talk to Daddy about allowing Charlotte to pee in the tub, lol? I would love to hear that conversation.

    LOL I don’t bathe with the kids anymore, my last two thought the tub was for pooping. You wouldn’t believe how many times that happens. At least weekly here. That warm water just relaxes it right outta Sam.

    My daughter DID poop in the tub once. Luckily I wasn’t the one giving her a bath a the time. Daddy was in the tub with her. LOL This was also in the middle of the “potty training from hell” period.
