Lilo and Stitch

Callie fell in love with a new movie. This time it's Lilo and Stitch. She laughs so much at Stitch's antics and also awwws at the loving family parts. She wants to watch part of it every night. Look at her all snuggled up in her bean bag chair intently watching....
Besides Stitch at bedtime she has been really testing us with her behavior. Every night has been multiple attempts at putting her to bed yelling mommy mommy 50x until I come in. Then in the middle of the night she does the same thing and se doesn't need anything. Just to be covered, get a hug or kiss and she goes back to bed. Then she most recently realized if she yells at 5 am "change you!" I will come and change her diaper and snuggle her for 5 min. Will all this is exhausting and she is just manipulating. So enough is enough! Tonight starts returning to tough love. I told her that at bedtime no one was coming back and she had to sleep all night until the morning. She immediately tested us yelling mommy and daddy about 200x. It took 20 minutes before she stopped yelling and went to bed. Now I have to make it through the night without going down there. I might hear my name called another 100 times just as she tests me. Callie needs such firm rules for everything as she really looks for any inconsistency to take advantage of. Battle of who is the most stubborn!
