Today, I put my 3 year old down for her regular nap. About an hour later I wake up from a dream where I was smelling something awful. When I woke up, the smell was still there, so I tracked it down. My daughter had decided to "fingerpaint" with the contents of a dirty diaper. FML

As the OP, I find all of this absolutely hilarious!! To address a few questions/comments: the pull-up was the one she was wearing when she was put to bed - she doesn't wear them any other time. I was monitoring her over the one-way baby monitor we have with the volume on full blast, but the pull-up slides up and down, no noise or anything, so that is how she was able to do her stealth-painting. As for being able to get into other things, we keep all of our chemicals in an upper cabinet, no worries there. Plus, if she'd have actually come out of her room without me hearing her, my dog would have ratted her out in a heartbeat! For the pissy commenters, good for you that you are so better at everything than everyone else, your mother must be proud of how nasty and judgemental she's raised you to be. As for those other parents that understand, thank you for being able to find the humor in this disgusting situation with me. If she was doing this daily, I'd be concerned, but since this has so far been a one time thing, I think boredom and wanting the soiled pull-up off her is what caused her to be so...umm...creative. And btw, she drew dinosaurs, her current fascination. And yes, I did a great job cleaning it up after I finished gagging and smearing vicks vaporub all around my nostrils.

I still don't get why people think that every kid who is three years old is automatically "too old to be in diapers." Obviously, you haven't met many kids if you think it's that simple. Of course, most people who comment on here HAVE no kids, so...

Not all 3 year olds are potty trained. They often don't have a huge amount of control so even if they are trained it makes sense to still put nappies (I'm English) on them. Especially if it is time for them to nap.

oh come on, I have a three year old daughter and she'd never think of a stupid thing like that. Nail polish all the way to the elbow,yes, but this? And a three year old kid is DEFINITELY too old to be in diapers.

I'm cracking up over all the people who are saying, "Oh no--kids definitely aren't smart enough at age 3 to figure out the toilet! They have to wait till they're *ready*, even if it takes till they're in college!" Good lord, people. When I was a kid, I didn't know ANY kids who weren't trained by 3 unless they were retarded. Any kid still running around in diapers at 3 or 4 would have been made fun of big time. Parents just can't be bothered to put the effort into it. When your kid's still not ready to get a job and leave home by age 40, you'll realize you've been a bit lax.
