can I have a drink?

No not me..., although maybe I need one!

Lady Bug called for me after she had been in bed all of about 1.2 seconds and wanted a drink of water. I told her no because she already had one.

"hmmmpf." she said.

A few minutes later she called again asking if she could have two drinks of water. I told her no. We would get drinks in the morning.

"hmmmpf." she said.

Yet again she calls out, this is maybe after she has been in bed about 6 or 7 minutes. She now asks if she can have three drinks of water. Why did she think her chances of getting a drink would improve if she asked for more than one?

Anyway, I told her no.

"hmmmpf." she said.

About 1 minute later instead of calling for me she yells "Daaaaaaaddddyyy!" and starts the process again! He, too, told her no! Darn her luck!

Why is they do that as soon as they go to bed. It always happens to me when I sit down on the lounge & just get comfy...

Sounds familiar! There's always some kind of request, isn't there? By the way, I "tagged" you on my blog! =)

that is pretty funny though, increasing her request... Clever???

Ah yes...I hate it when Emma asks one of us something and if she doesn't like the answer she goes to the other one. So annoying!

I also like how kids figure out all on their own how to make up excuses so that they can extend going to sleep.
