She has been unwilling to keep her pull-ups on her body. Most of the time, it’s not really that big a deal. She is old enough that we have been getting her used to going to the potty like a big girl. Don’t get me wrong, she isn’t potty trained, but usually she doesn’t mind when we sit her on the toilet. Sunday night she was refusing to put her undies on and leave them there. Greg threatened, “Allie, if you don’t keep your undies on, I am going to spank you.”
Allison,”No, Dad, No Undies!”
Greg, “Okay then, let me show you what a spanking is”. Gets Allison, pulls down her undies (ok, sort of defeating the purpose) and lightly swats her heinie. Allison jumps down. Starts to pull her undies off again.
Greg, “Alright Allison, do you want me to spank you again?”.
Allison, “No UNDIES, DAAAD.” Starting too pull them down some more. “Dad, Spank, Allie”. Undies are most of the way down and Allison is bending over and using a pitiful, begging voice, “Dad spank Allie, please!”
This is what Allison has been doing the past few days, when I try to scold her. She will look at me, purse her lips into an almost fishy face, and then move her jaw up and down. Picture a baby sucking a bottle without the bottle. If she doesn’t do this, then she will just start jibber-jabbering back at me. Last night she did this while we were sitting on the sofa. I put my hand on her face and pushed her backwards, so that instead of sitting up, she was laying down. She cracked up. Sat back up, and “More, moma!”.
In Meet the Fockers there is a part where the baby says his first word (s) and the hooo part is really elongated. Allison has started doing this. It’s like she isn’t quite sure just how long ooooo sound and oh sounds are supposed to last.
