Getting dressed for bed

For the last few days Megan has pitched a fit when we go to put her in her pajamas. We have had to correct her and let her know that it wasn't okay to pitch a fit.

Well, tonight was the mother of all fits. I was trying something a little different to see if we could avoid the fit - with her sitting up on the couch I put her legs in her outfit and then pulled the top part up behind her. As soon as I tried to put her arm in the sleeve she started her fit and before I could say anything she leaned forward and BIT my hand. Yes, that is what I said - she actually leaned forward and bit the hand I was using to put her arm through the sleeve. I couldn't believe it - I was in shock.

We have been trying to figure out what is causing the fits, if she is too tired by the time we are doing it, if she is hot and doesn't want the pajamas of if she simply doesn't want to go to bed and knows that once the pajamas are on she is going down. So tonight, after we got her dressed, we kept her up and continued to play with her for 10-15 minutes to try to undo the image in her head. Hopefully, if we keep this up, she will stop having an issue.
