Funnies

It was a very eventful night last night. Both kids somehow ended up in bed with us and Shelby woke up wanting water. So I gave her a small glass and let her keep it on the side of the bed she was on. Well I went back to sleep and at 4(about 2 1/2 hours later) in the morning I wake up to her standing on the side of my bed with her pajamas off. She continued to ask me where her polka dot jammies were because she needed to change into them. I just kept asking her what are you doing out of bed, why did you take your pajamas off, and so on. Anyway she told me her jammies were wet and she had to get new ones. Of course by this time I was out of bed and checking the other side of the bed thinking she had peed the bed(which would really surprise me because in the a little over a year she's been trained she has NEVER wet the bed, why would she start now? I know there are accidents but whenever she has to go she always just wakes up to go no matter what time it is). Well sure enough there was a huge wet spot and so I started removing the sheets. By this time I decided I needed to go to the bathroom before I continued. Here's the following conversation we had:

Shelby's sitting in there with me talking about this and that...I wasn't really paying attention.

Me: Shelby, what I want to know is why you peed the bed?

Shelby: I didn't. I didn't pee the bed Mom.

Me: Well Shelby there is a huge wet spot on the bed. Why did you pee?

Shelby: Mom. I don't pee the bed. I pee in the potty. I pee in that potty(pointing to the toilet that I was so conveniently on.) **note: By this time she is looking at me like I am a total idiot for even thinking she wet the bed.

Me: Ok. Well if it is not pee then what is it. Just tell me the truth.

Shelby: (very dramatically) Mom I can't tell you. I can't. You'll be mad at me. I can't tell you the truth.

Me: Shelby I'm not going to be mad just tell me what is in the bed. (by this time I'm holding back laughter)

Shelby: Water.

Me: Well I would rather it be water than pee. So you are sure you didn't mess the bed?

Shelby: Well it's a little bit of mess.

Me: Shelby did you pee in the bed or not?

Shelby: No, mom, I didn't pee the bed. It's water.

So by this time I believe her. If she had peed she would've been sleeping and it would have startled her...resulting in crying and waking me up. I was laughing so hard this morning. This girl comes up with some funny stuff (Yesterday I had her help clean up and after 5 minutes she told me her brain was telling her to watch TV. What?). Anyway, if she thinks I'm going to be mad at her for water, then I must really be a mean mom. Ha! Definitely a story I want to remember.

Shelby and all her glory at 4 this morning....with her polka dot jammies she found.
