I caught Rascal’s dreaded bug. Am sitting here shivering with fever. But, there’s NEWS to be told. And, there are pictures to be shared. Pictures for which you will THANK me profusely in the comments and maybe even send presents. (I could really use a new pair of Lululemons — otherwise, cash is fine.)

EXTRA EXTRA! THE MONKEY PEED IN THE TOILET! THE MONKEY PEED IN THE TOILET! READ ALL ABOUT IT!

We here at The Cheaty Monkey (that’s “CheATy” — not “CheEKy”) are thrilled to announce that THE Cheaty Monkey herself peed in the toilet today!

She was being crazy all day, Gorgeouses. Just LOOK at what she did to her ROOM while I was feeding the Rascal….

When she FINALLY realized no amount of ransacking would lure me from the Rascal, she tried asking me for a potty training session: “C’I poddy train, Maaaaama?” With that, of course, I JUMPED off my sickbed and ran to the washroom. Lifted monkey onto the toilet. Scrambled around her room for the coveted “potty” book. AS I was walking back to the washroom, I heard, “whzzzzzzzzzzzz”!!!! She was peeing! And, not just a hesitant little tinkle. A FULL BLOWN WHZZZZZZZ!!!

I jumped for joy — so high that my boobs smacked me in the face on the way down.

The monkey wanted her prize immediately, of course. Not chocolate. Not “any toy you want in the whole toystore.” Not a sticker or magnet or even “TV on mama’s bed.” But…a CHECK MARK!?


Feel free to steal this button. Only because I’m feeling generous…. Do it, quick, before I change my mind. Harrrr!

Yeah, the kid is all over this chart….


…and the butterfly wings…. Those dang sparkles are all over my house. I love sparkles, though.

Yes, she will do anything for “a markit” (her word for “check mark”).

So, we’re on our way to life without GAWDAWFUL fumey poop removal. We are on our way.

She peed on the floor twice after that

After that, she lay down on my bed with mittens for socks….

PICTURES YOU WILL THANK ME AND CHANGE THE MONKEY’S POOPIE DIAPIES FOR
