Toilet Trouble

From this title, you are probably assuming that I am starting to toilet-train Kanyon...not the case. However, lately Kanyon has found the toilets, teaching me the hard way that I need to keep those bathroom doors closed.
I've haven't had a problem with her till recently. About a week ago I found her climbing on top of an open toilet bowl, however, she didn't play or get into the water. My first REAL experience of Kanyon in the toilet came on New Years Eve when we were celebrating at a friends house. We got talking to some friends and I happened to realize that Kanyon was being awfully quiet. So Jake went looking for her and all of a sudden we heard the recognizable sound of a toilet seat slamming closed. There she was. In the bathroom. Both feet were wet. Both arms were wet. And toilet paper was strung to all sides of the room, with some of it in the toilet. It was hard to yell at her 'cause we were all laughing about it. Luckily, I brought some PJ's for her to change into for the rest of the night.
Then my second experience with Kanyon and her fascination with toilets came today, New Years Day. Kind of the same scenario....Things were quiet and we wondered "Where is Kanyon?" We had learned to close the main bathroom door downstairs so she couldn't get in there. BUT...I didn't think about her going upstairs to play. I went looking for her and as I was going upstairs I could hear Kanyon saying "Baby. Baby." I checked her bathroom first...she wasn't there. I was relieved. However, I then realized the "Baby. Baby" sound was coming from MY bedroom!! I went in there and Kanyon was panicked because she couldn't get her baby out of the TOILET! So, I called Jake upstairs to fish Baby out and he threw her in the shower. Poor Kanyon had a fit. She was so upset that she couldn't hold Baby. So, I took Baby's clothes off her and threw them in the washer. I told Kanyon that she needed to give Baby a bath before she could play with her again. She did not hesitate to start to bathe her Baby. Here are the bath pics:





All clean!
