9 years of parenting… never seen that one before.

so. one of those things you don’t learn about parenting until it’s too late… kids shit in the bathtub. sometime between the ages of 0 and 3, i think every kid does it at least once. if you’re used to pooping whenever, wherever, and your little butt gets thrown into a bunch of nice, relaxing warm water, it just doesn’t occur to you that you’re not wearing a diaper. EG did it twice, and i think each of the twits did it at least once.

monkeybeef’s turn! so he’s standing up in the bathtub, doing his thing, keeping it real. then he pauses, his brow furrows, and he arches his back, sticks his fat little belly out, and reaches around behind him, wiggling a little. i figure his butt itches, and leave him to it.

nope. after a moment, his hand reappears. with a turd in it. he tosses it out of the tub onto the floor, studies it solemnly for a moment, looks up at me and grins, then gets back to his bidness of stomping water.

i don’t know if the whole thing was a testament to his fastidious nature, and he didn’t want to sit in a tub with poop in it, or if it was simply a new thing to do with a turd that he hadn’t tried out yet. all i know is… the monkey. flung. poo.

yep.

    holy cow! I searched google for “r2d2 costumes” and wowie, I ended up on your freakin’ HILLaarious blog site. It’s like a trying to turn porn off, because you never know when your tennis partner is going to “show up” or like trying to NOT ogle and bloody gory maiming train wreck, but I like my porno analogy much mo’ betta. Anyway, thanks a ton for the giggles today. Poop in hand. Good one. My kids just try to cover their floaters with sudsy bubbles. SICKOs.
