A long long time ago...

I published my last post....

So, a funny thing happened yesterday, and no it wasn't the election. If you can laugh at that you are doing better than I am. I picked up a kid from church that is Carson's age to take them to play together. I am trying to get Carson more play dates. So we are in the car, and before we get on the highway, Stren (the other kid) starts asking if we are there yet. Well it was pretty annoying especially since Carson picked up on this and started asking too. After the first few times, I just said I'll tell you when we get there, but it didn't work. For 20 minutes I had to listen to them. Finally for the love of all that is good in this world, we got there. They had a pretty good time playing together and it was nice to have someone for Carson to play with. It was definately a day of bad habit swapping because after lunch we came home and they were playing outside. We are on a pretty busy road, but I have a fenced in yard, so I just close the gate and let them play. I was sitting on the porch, and happen to look up and see Carson peeing against a tree. This isn't the first time he has done this. It started about a year ago when we were camping and he discovered peeing outside. He has been hooked since, so any chance he gets, he pees. He has quit asking because he knows I am going to tell him to go inside. He is a clever one. One time, we were around back going through a shed and he said he needed to pee. Meagan said "run inside," but he insisted on staying outside. She reluctantly agreed, and he promptly ran around front to go in front of everyone. I love being a boy. Back to yesterday... I asked Stren if he needed to go inside and go potty and he said no!! Then promptly dropped his pants and went on the same tree.

On the way home was the real treat. I could tell they were fading, but both refused to nap. Stren was holding his eye and I asked if he had hurt it, the whole time thinking Carson had poked him or something. He said he was fine, they were just feeling bad. Then he told me he was just going to close them for a while and let them rest. Almost before he finished his sentence, he was out. Carson on the other hand fought it the whole time. I don't think he ever did sleep. That just makes for an early bedtime. SWEET!!!

Ahh, I remember the days of little boys peeing off the deck--yes, the deck. Pay backs are sweet!!!

That's awesome. I guess we have that to look forward to with Cade. Hopefully we won't be living in an apartment building and him peeing of the balcony!! That would be bad!!
