I couldn’t make this stuff up!
Really. I’ve got a decent imagination but not one this good. The types of events I imagined when I thought of interacting with my own children before I had them, don’t come close to most of the events that have actually happened since they’ve arrived. My day dreams never involved such vast amounts of urine. In fact, they never involved urine at all. But now that I’ve got two boys, that’s a lot of what our interactions are about. Questions like, “Who sprinkled on the floor?” and “Who forgot to flush the toilet?” are asked frequently. I pretty much clean pee off the toilet and floor every day, once even off the top of the toilet, but yesterdays urine happening tops them all. Oh yes, are you ready for this?
Hubby, Count Dooku and Obi Wan were playing a game of Go Fish while I was busy getting Angel girl ready for her afternoon nap. After she drank her milk I laid her down in her crib and went into the kitchen to load the dishes. I could hear her softly whining and knew she was almost asleep. That ’s when Count Dooku leapt up announcing that he had to poop (yeah we’re working on getting him to stop announcing these things). No sooner had he entered the hall bathroom than Obi Wan leapt up announcing that he had to pee. I told him he would have to wait until his brother was finished. We have a bathroom in our bedroom but going in there when Angel girl is still awake and then leaving will throw her into a frenzy.
Obi Wan walked into the hallway and in a matter of seconds I heard his voice saying, “Mommy, I have to pee bad!” I recognized the urgency and knew I had to do something. I ran into the bathroom to find Count Dooku sitting on the toilet and Obi Wan with his pants around his ankles, holding himself and dancing. Thinking fast I told Count Dooku to scoot up just a bit so Obi Wan could pee into the toilet behind him. But I was too late. Obi Wan simply couldn’t hold it anymore. Suddenly pee was spraying in three different directions through Obi Wans fingers as he was still trying to “hold” it in. He was peeing on Count Dookus bottom, the floor and the counter top simultaneously.
Count Dooku jumped up screaming, I was screaming and shielding my face from the spray and pushing Obi Wan toward the toilet. None to soon he finished but barely any of it got in the toilet. I just stood stunned for a moment as I looked at my two bare bottomed boys. Both with pants around their ankles. Both soaked in urine. I moaned a bit as I took a sloshing step backward, but then I started laughing out loud as everything replayed in my head and the boys joined in. It was the strangest family bonding moment we’ve ever had. Boys!








LOL! Thanks for the giggle!

I’m so glad you have angel girl. The two of you are going to be laughing together over a lot of things over the years, methinks! Oi!

That is hilarious! With three boys using the bathroom, we always seem to have urine in places it shouldn’t be. I have heard giggles and screams coming from the bathroom and when I checked to see what was going on I found - “MOMMY WE ARE HAVING A PEE FIGHT!” Needless to say the boys are not allowed together in the bathroom any more! We have also instituted the boys wipe the stool down every day. I have posted on their chore chart two days for each one to wipe the toilet down. It is amazing that they seem to be able to aim much better!

Next time just have him pee in the tub. :P
Max is bad about the announcements too. A few days ago he had a BM at my Aunt Lois’ house. Afterward he walked up to each and every person there to make sure they knew he’d pooped.

That is good stuff!
(I probably would have had him pee in the tub, too.)

Yeah my son Gabriel hasn’t started potty training as of yet, I think we will wait until he’s near 2, plus we are moving in December so I don’t want to get him started and then have him stop due to the move (I hear it can stress them out?).
I would have let him pee in the tub or even the sink LOL!
Funny story though!
Oh, noo! I’m askeerd now! (Kyle’s almost potty training age…)

Too funny! So glad I have girls for the moments like these that only boys could bring!
Thanks for sharing and I’m so glad you laughed at it all! In my family we called it tinkling, not peeing. The reason was this, we boys were too short to reach the toilet (got trained as soon as we could walk) so Mom had us use a large coffee can. The sound it made became the act and we would always say “Mom, I gotta go tinkle!” Hadn’t thought about that in years.
Good times! Holy. Cow. If it makes you feel any better- my husband is always reminding me that urine is sterile until it comes out… ;-b..
That was a good laugh. Awesome.
Summers last blog post..Mia freaks us out a bit.
Oh my goodness! I laughed so hard at that! My boys do the exact same thing. One time we only had one bathroom, but we did have an empty soda cup. Whatever’s handy works! The toilet in their bathroom is always covered with pee. It’s a daily cleanup. I like the idea of putting it on the chore chart. Maybe it would help if they had to clean up their own mess.

that is hilarious - I can just imagine what it was like … and I hope it doesn’t happen here with my two little boys just getting ready for toilet training.
