I have come to realize....

That the days of "pooing" in silence are long gone. My cat has even figured out how to open the door when I am in there. Don't misunderstand this, she hasn't become like the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park that figure out how to open doors, but if it isn't completely shut, she will stand on her hind legs and bat at it until it breaks free and she can push it open. And, much like the kids, she will stand at my feet crying at me for Lord only knows what.

I guess I will be making good use of the lock on that door from now on. Although that doesn't stop my human children from sitting on the opposite side of the door saying "Can you see my toes, Mommy?", "Can you see my fingers, Mommy?" "Mommy, here is a toy to play with while you are in there!"

Ohhhh the joys.

this made me giggle. I'm so glad that there is no one to bother me here (though the toys might be appreciated...LOL)

I'm not sure why you even bother to shut the door. When its just the family around we just give up. Shutting the door is like forbidden fruit, you just want it even more.

Oh when it's just us, the door remains open. Half the time, the light doesn't even get turned on. LOL! This post is just about the times when there are daycare kids or anyone else around. Unless it's someone like maybe MBG, then I don't close the door for a #1 because.... well... it's too hard to keep the conversation going through a closed door!! LOL!

Fingers under the door. Usually crying. Yup.
Worse, when I try to take a shower with the door shut during waking hours. Even if their dad is around. It's just not cool with the rug rats.

I recall holding a MBG & T on my lap and read them a story because they wouldn't leave me alone. If I recall correctly I spent about 4.5 seconds in the bathroom and they needed that book read NOW!
