Shampoo and other Parker Troubles

In less than one week Parker has gone into the shower, pulled down my shampoo and filled her dry (previously clean) hair with gobs and gobs of shampoo, twice. I don't know why, and I'm pretty sure that there is no good reason other than she's Parker. The first time I thought it was a little funny, told her it was bad, grabbed her, stripped us both down and jumped in the shower. The second time didn't go so well. Instead, I grabbed her, tossed her alone in the shower with her clothes on and turned on the shower, which starts off pretty darned cool. I rinsed her off while she tried to figure out what was happening, all the while reminding her that using the shampoo without mommy is naughty. Wonder if she's going to try this again, or if I'm going to have to start locking the bathroom doors.

Guess I'll add shampoo to the shopping list.

This is the same month that I found her in her bed at nap time with her legs, sheets and wall covered in ball point pen. I've since learned that you can't get ball point pen off the wall with Magic Eraser, and you can't cover it with yellow paint. Still looking for a solution to this one.

Are we three yet???

Nah, nah, nah LOO LOO!

I think that Payton brought this phrase home from school, and Jason QUICKLY broke her of it, teaching her it's not nice and not tollerable. Somehow Parker hasn't gotten the memo, so her new favorite past time is running around torturing Payton chanting it at her. Payton's convinced it's a bad word and has a very naughty meaning, I just think it's hysterical. Guess I should stop her, but I'm pretty sure it's better than some things she could be calling out to her big sister.
