From the kitchen I heard the toilet lid closing and said to Adam:
"Has Jo locked herself in the bathroom again?" (Just to clarify, she's not locked in in the traditional sense. She frequently goes in there and closes the door on herself, which, since she lacks the dexterity to reopen said door, effectively results in her being locked in to the bathroom)
"Probably" says Adam and proceeds to investigate.
Whereupon we proceed to utter some of the best phrases yet in our parenting adventure.
"No baby in the toilet, Jo!"
"We don't put babies in the toilet"
So on and so forth.
Jo has made many mentions of this over the days since.
"Baby's wet" she has told me, as well as "she's all wet" and "wipe!" (her preferred post-toilet command but this time applying it to Harriet). The rules have also been reiterated for me. "No baby in the toilet" she has solemnly informed me on several occasions.
I'm glad the lesson has sunk in. I must admit I'm concerned. She not only dunked Harriet - she closed the lid on her.
Clearly making nefarious plans
Well funny. Nefarious plans for poor duckies.
