If It Ever Gets Quiet...

If it ever gets quiet at my house I go straight to the bathroom. Although Snug has never played in the bathroom inappropriately (save the time he ate 1/2 a tube of toothpaste...but technically he wasn't playing, he was eating), Baby J is a whole different story.

I think Baby J has bathroom radar. He knows when the door is open. He has like a sixth sense. We rarely leave the door open...usually it is when Snug has used the facility and left the door cracked.

It got oddly quiet while I was trying to find a diaper for him after I got him out of the tub last night. I seriously picked up a diaper and grabbed jammies and he was totally out of the bedroom. I quick dashed back to the bathroom where Snug was still swimming bathing to see his naked little body attempting to climb back into the tub.

This morning we also had a quiet episode while I was on the phone with #1 trying to figure something out (not sure what...the bathroom episode erased it from memory). I rushed to the bathroom in time to hear a large crash. He had climbed onto the toilet and knocked off the basket on the back which holds a kleenex box, wipes, etc. He then followed suit and fell off the toilet. His fall was cushioned by all of the kleenexes he had pulled out of the box prior to the crash.

If it ever gets quiet on Snug's end, I just check the snack cupboard. He is usually "just tasting".

Oh goodness... this is what I have to look forward with my Baby J... she's one, and loves "hanging out" in the bathroom. I keep forgetting to close the door !!!

Grayson is the same way with the bathroom. I think it's a love for all things bath related and the fact that Jayce is in there a lot. Good luck!!
Love you cuz. Hope you are having a great day!

We have the same problem! My oldest never cared to be in the bathroom unless it was mandated by a bath, and now, to potty...my youngest is OBSESSED with the toilet...what is it about second borns? lol...I have had to wash her hands so many times and I've explained to the best of my ability that it's dirty, gross, and can hurt her to stick her hands in the toilet water...but she keeps going back...lol...we usually keep the bathroom shut with a safety knob on it, but with my oldest going potty on the toilet now...OY...lol...
