I think most people would say that I am a patient momma with my children. I really try not to lose my temper, explain why we are being disciplined, etc. All in all I think we have a pretty good relationship at our home. So my question is what have I done to these children? I understand when someone wets the bed. It happens, it is the occupational hazard of being a three year old. Totally get it. Even understand when we don't make it to the potty. Still sweet smiling mommy. BUT when a three year old takes his underwear off and pees on the couch and then is happy about it. What is up with that? Moving on to his sister. Totally get that we are 20 months old and curious about everything. Understand when we pee on the floor right in front of our little potty. It happens, we aren't potty trained. BUT when she takes off her diaper and poops on my couch. (Yes, I also understand if no one wants to sit on my couch anymore). Then after we get past that and try to put it out of our minds, she takes off her diaper during nap time and poops in her bed. Of course she doesn't just poop, she has to smear it and get it everywhere. I find her trying to climb out of the bed because she has finally decided it is gross to play with your poop.
Are they in a conspiracy against me? Have I done something to deserve this kind of retalation???

I'm sorry, I can't help but to laugh. As you know, I too experienced the poop-smearing with Camryn. Not once, but twice. SO, all I can say is to have a sense of humor about your little ones and their "movements" and prepare yourself for it to happen again.
If I ever come to your house, I'll make myself comfortable on the floor, thank you. :)
...MAYBE your mom put a curse on you when you were a child doing the same sort of things....or MAYBE your couch is just a comfy place to "let go"....or MAYBE you need to put a lock on her diaper, so she cant get to it.
But..MAYBE NOT to any of the above, this is just life with children- suck it up! :)
Maybe they don't like your couch. Oh...and her bed.
Some things kids do have no explanation...even when they get older! But discipline and consistency and teaching what is and what is not acceptable are always key in every situation.
Have you ever heard of that "Poo Artist"? Maybe you can scoop it up and send it to them and make a few bucks for it??? ;-)
SOOOO....A few hours ago as a walked into my 3 year olds room and stepped into a big puddle and asked what happened and got the response "I teed on the floor", with a big smile, I was furious. And last week when I went to wake up my 18 month old from nap time, I thought he was still asleep because it was so quiet, and walked into his room to find a lovely poop wall mural, I was anything but happy.
NOW....however, I feel much better to know that I'm not the only one. So thanks for sharing and take heart in the fact that they do outgrow it...eventually...and stock up on febreeze :)
