One night after bath time our two-year-old, Carter, requested to take his alligator bath toy to bed with him. This is a rather large alligator toy that was originally part of the treasure hunt for older brother's pirate birthday party (it wouldn't be a real pirate party without an alligator swamp!). Obligingly, daddy allowed Carter to sleep with the plastic alligator--much better than a teddy bear any day!
The following morning our usually happy riser woke up very upset. Daddy went in to Carter's room to see what was the matter and through tears Carter announced very sadly, "Awigator peed in my bed!" You see, the hollow alligator had apparently collected some bath water and when Carter gave the alligator a squeeze it "peed" out of the hole on the underside of the toy. Oops. Carter was very offended and needless to say, the alligator has been sleeping in the tub ever since.
What a bad alligator! He needs time out! Poor Carter. Maybe that will help him realize there is more important things to wear than a shirt (like big boy underwear!)
