So yesterday, we had ourselves an adventure. There were some good times, some bad times, some crying times, some very over-tired kid times and most of all some fun time.
Lets just say that I am glad that it was only a day trip and I learned that 13 months in kinda young to be going "camping" Oh well, live and learn and there is always next year.
Hayden on the other hand, had an wonderful time. He is the perfect age to enjoy the lake and all the other kids. It really helps that he loves the water, I mean really, really loves the water. You would think that the boy was half fish or something.
Anyway beside spending most of the day in the lake, I think that he also drank half the lake because the boy literally had to pee every 5 minutes. (The fact that he was drinking the lake either on purpose or not, kinda grosses me out but what am I going to do? Pray for a strong immune system, that's what.) He had to pee so often that we told him that he could pee by the tree instead of going back up to the cabin (I know, I know, I admit laziness here, but really after the 20th time up the hill...enough already).
One of the first times he came out of the lake to pee, he was trying to get his shoes on to go off by a tree and the poor boy just couldn't hold it any longer. He just let it go right there on Jeff's step-sister's shoes. I was mortified but THANK God, she did not have them on, they were plastic flip flops and she was laughing hysterically.
As if that wasn't bad enough, one of the other times he can running out of the lake to pee (totally stopped counting at this point), he said something like, "I am going to pee in the sand." Before I realized want was going on and could tell him, no.
There he was with pants around his ankles, penis in hand, peeing on the beach. Not just standing there peeing, oh no. It was a whole show; with hips swaying, penis wiggling and design making.
There were so many thoughts going through my head. Part of me wanted to hide my head with embarrassment, part of me wanted to get my camera and take picture to post but I thought that I would get arrested for kiddy porn or something, and the last part wanted to yell and scream in anger.
But all I could do was laugh and again thank God that every one around me was laughing too.
One of the other moms (who I didn't really know and had just met) did watch the whole "show" with a smile on her face but with this kinda horrified look in her eyes said, "I just don't get this. I have girls and they don't ever do anything like this."
I couldn't say anything at the time, I was laughing to hard but now I would to say; "Lady, I don't get it either. Boys are totally different creatures and maybe some day after my 3 are grown, I will understand but something tells me not so much."

That's funny. If I were you, I'd teach him to pee in the lake. But then it would be hard to distinguish from a pool.
We actually tired this but it was a no go. He won't even pee in the tub. I guess I should be thankful.
Funny stuff. My sons' relished their stand-up urination especially at the lake. However, like a woman, my daughter topped them one year by pooping in the lake. She was nothing more than a face breaking the surface for about 3 minutes, and laughed like nobody's business when the processed yielded fruit.
We took a picture of her doing this and (unbeknown to her) Mom gave it to the school as her Grade 6 grad picture (the 'baby' shot).
Ah, good times!
Ah what great memories for you all to look back on one day!!!!!
My girls totally would if they could.
Woo hoo! Beach peeing!!! Yeah...I don't get it either...I'm like the other woman with only girls. I will say, though, I do have friends with boys and they have been known to drop their drawers and pee wherever they feel like it! (the boys...not my friends) Whatever works!
Peeing! I guess if you can make patterns, designs or write your name, the whole show gets to be heaps of fun.
Liked the idea of "no thankyou bites."
Oh to have the plumbing of a guy!! Can you imagine how much more we could get done in a day if we could just whip it out and pee in the trees?
Ya. If girls had the right equipment they'd be hosing everywhere too. Graham's favorite outdoor pee spot has been ON MY CAR lately...good thing it's almost paid off and I don't care about the paint job!
That is hilarious. I can see Wee One doing that in a few years.
OH my that's so funny! I have girls, and sometimes I wish we COULD use the tree (or sand!) method! We are going camping this weekend and I dread all the trips to the outhouse (it stinks!!). It's one thing to go there to do your own business, but to go there with your kiddo and stand in the stinky waiting for them while they sing and doddle and try to touch everything...that is not my favorite thing to say the least!
