Bathroom Etiquette

About a week ago Rick walked in on Levi using the toilet. Levi said, "Hey, wait your turn!"

Guts

Today while running errands Levi sneezed and then said "my head guts are coming out". Head guts?

The Rules

Per Levi:
Rule #1: You get me milk
Rule #2: You get me milk
Is it past bedtime or what?

On a side note, the other night I was working on a craft project and left my bag on the couch. Rick found Levi after the damage had already been done. Levi found it the next morning and pulled out...you guessed it, the super sharp craft scissors.
Rick found him after he had made several cuts into one of the throw pillows. My fault totally but he still got disciplined. His first reaction was "but it was an accident" I told him that it wasn't an accident so he said "but I'm sorry..." I said that I knew he was but he was still in trouble. He finally looked at the pillow and said "you just need to put some tape on it". Why didn't I think of that solution?

The Reasons for Naptime

Several months ago Levi decided that he doesn't need a nap. We disagree...

Typically he has "quiet time" while Jace is napping (whether it is here or at daycare). Usually he watches a show or just plays inside. The problem however arises about 4 or 5 pm. He gets super cranky and if we don't keep an eye on him, he is asleep. Especially if we drive anywhere. Then, if he does get 20 or 30 min it is a fight to get him to bed at night.

Today we caught a break, we went to my parents for dinner and let the kids play until about 8 which is a little past Jace's bedtime but we didn't want Levi to go to sleep on the way home if we left too early. About 5 min from home Levi fell asleep and we were able to transfer him in to bed and get Jace down quickly. At 8:30, both boys were in bed and it was quiet in the house.

We may go for a drive at 8 every night.
