Evasion of Sleep

I believe K has this master plan .... she plots this out before bed every night. It is her plan to evade sleep!

K for whatever reason thinks that "go use potty please" is the magical phrase that will be her saving grace from the dreaded bedtime monster. (K does not think there is bedtime monster. She just HATES going to bed and sleeping!).

Sometimes it is funny, other times it is sort of annoying. K will go to the potty and sit on the potty with her pants and panties still on. If she thinks she can get a way with it she will play in the bathtub and drop cloths, toys, papers, coins, etc into the tub. (Right now there is a collection of pants and paper and various coins in my tub.) Other times K will try to climb onto the sink to look into the mirror or try to climb on to the bathroom door so that her feet are on either door knob so she can use the door as a swing of sorts.
 
When she is bed, K may try to slide down of the bed in a sneaky way and try to escape the bedroom. Or she will try to go into the walk-in closet or spin in the desk chair.

Somehow she thinks I won't notice this, but I do!

Some nights K just won't sleep at all. Last night was one of those nights .... hopefully we will have a better night tonight.
