Wright Update

First of all, funny story. Wright is getting closer to making it through the night without a pull up. So as a result, he is waking up to go potty at all hours of the night. We have spent a lot of time and effort training him to never come out of his room without us coming to get him which has always been really nice. But having him call "Mommy Mommy!" when he needs to go potty in the middle of the night was getting a little old. So I told him that he was allowed to get out of his bed and go down the hall to his bathroom if he needed to. Well, this has opened all sorts of doors. So, last night Brendan and I were working on my new computer in the backroom and heard his door open. We both assumed he was going potty but did not pay enough attention to realize we never heard it close back. About 45 minutes later we heard someone running through the kitchen. I jumped up thinking it was an intruder and saw Wright in there. I went after him and he went in his room and closed the door. So I opened it and asked him what he was doing to which he searched for a lie to get out of trouble. At this point, I could hear the tv on from our bedroom. So I asked if he had been in there watching tv and coaxed a "yes" out of him eventually. After much scolding, I put him back in his bed and went to my room to turn the tv off. There I found where he had made a pallet out of his blankets and stuffed animals, gotten the flashlight out of the outlet to see better, and guess what show was on? Real Housewives of New Jersey! He can't work the remote, so he had been watching that for almost an hour. I will never get that part of his innocence back ;) I went to tell B and we both couldn't help but laugh and wonder how long he had been planning this stunt.

He is also (and has been for some time now) giving up his nap. I have been really holding on to it because it is the only time I can get work done. But recently it has gotten really bad and he just doesnt want to be in his room for 2+ hours. So Brendan and I decided we would let him watch a movie for an hour from like 1-2 to wind down and then go in his room to "nap" from 2-3 or 3:30. Today was the first day we tried this and so far so good. I had to post this pic of how I found him in the den when I went in to check on him. So precious...
