Thank goodness she was de-hydrated

Oh toddlers.............
So I put Catherine down for her nap around 1:15 PM today, but she kept talking and talking (not typical) and so finally at 2:15 PM she was saying "mommy" (over and over again)...I decide to go in. She is totally naked and announces to me proudly, "Mommy, I naked." The room spells like the tell tale stench of poop. I look around and alll her "bed gear" (including Pooh Bear, Pink Bear, Girl Bear, Blankie Bear, Cinderella, Arielle - The Mermaid, her paci and her blankie) are thrown out of the bed. Along with all her gear are about 11 decent "tootsie roll" like poopies. Lovely! On a more hydrated day, this would be more mushy poop, but thank goodness she appears to not have had very much to drink today.
I picked up all the poop, as Catherine says, "Mommy pick up poopies." Then I clean her up and put on her diaper (SHAME on me for putting the diper on forwards instead of backwards - I have become complacent as normally when she is sleeping I put it on backwards). Then I have to re-make her bed which has pee and poop in it. The whole time, I am explaining as soon as this bed is made, you are getting back into it. She hands me the sheet and says, "Mommy, I help make bed." Then she puts all her "bed gear" back in and I put her in her bed and know I am writing this with my fingers crossed that she'll sleep!
