Peeing in the Yard

Boys will be boys, right?!  Oh my, it's always an adventure.

Last week, we were outside taking in all the sunshine we could before the rain started.   The boys are doing great playing together and need my help less and less everyday, so I took a book with me.  Now, you must know, the yard is boy safe, so when Ben wandered off around the corner I didn't think too much of it.  When he was there for a couple of minutes, I asked Thomas, "What do you think Ben is doing?"  Thomas ran off to go see.

Now, when it was quiet for another few moments, I got up to go see for my self.

I found Bailey, Thomas and Benjamin all gathered around the birdbath.  Bailey was drinking the water.  Now, it hadn't rained yet, and I hadn't watered.  It was almost as if Thomas could read my mind and knew I was wondering why there was water in the birdbath.

Thomas announced, laughing, that Bailey was drinking my pee!!!

I freaked out inside.  All girlieness screaming over the grossness of the situation.  Bailey stopped with my outloud, "NO!!"  Thomas was laughing.  Benjamin was watching.

With a calm voice, while thinking am I really saying this outloud, "Thomas, it is not funny that Bailey is drinking your pee."

We then had a conversation about the proper places to go pee.  His little brother is watching after all!!

Boys are an adventure.
