Pa-pa Wiggies!
The single most uttered phrase in our household. Daisy went through a Wiggles phase a few months ago. From the moment she woke up or walked into the house, she would run for the remote, hand it to the nearest parent, and yell, "Wiggies! Wiggies!" (Note: The remote in her hand in this photo is not the actual remote, and may in fact be an old cell phone.)
Meanwhile, Buster has this DVD called "Potty Power," recommended to us as a strategic infotainment device to curry enthusiasm for a certain learning experience. It had no real effect on Buster, but Daisy fell in love with it. Because she thinks "Wiggies" means "TV show," she started calling it "Wiggies," and then after a few days "Potty Power Wiggies," which comes out as Pa-pa Wiggies.
Dad is beyond resistence here, the songs on an endless loop in his head. No more diapers for me/Gonna use the potty gonna give it a try ...
The good news: Dad is now extremely enthusiastic about using the potty. He's got potty power!
