I gotta go potty

Day 16 of potty training:
I'm in my bedroom and hear Lukas yell out "I gotta go potty".
My first thought was, "Oh great, he's peed his pants."
So I go into the living room and kitchen and couldn't find him. I yell out to him to see where he's at and he says he's in the bathroom.
I walk in there and he's standing there on his step stool, shorts and underwear at his ankles, and holding his pee-pee, ready to go pee in the potty! He was waiting for someone to come in there and help him aim. LOL! so I go over, help him out and he pees.
I tried so hard to not crack up laughing at how cute it was to run into him like that, standing and ready to go. Such a little boy growing up!

Thanks for the flick tip


As I go through each of these potty days with Luke I try and lend him a couple tips before during and after peeing. I told him to just give his, well you know, a couple flicks as we men do when we're done. I'm not here to explain it or further debate the idea behind the flick, we just do it. So this morning I went in to bathroom to relieve myself after Luke finished up when I hear from the living room "Flick it daddy!!!!!" REALLY loud. Isn't it funny what words they hold onto?

That's MY boy...


Potty training is going slowly, but the adventures of cleaning up human wastes makes is kinda.. well gross. Anyway as Luke grabs a book to head for the potty during his time he'll hang out on the throne for a good 10 minutes. During that time he can only read the book so many times before he has to move on to other time consuming activities. His most recent is to scope out his package down low. He'll grab his testicles and ask momma, "You see my big penis?" Now I never taught him this. I'm proud of it I guess, but I didn't or wouldn't teach him to say this. The boy is a natural I guess. To actually understand BIG. Wait a minute... I pee with him, or next to him all the time. Is he comparing the family assets? Crap. Ha ha... dough.
