Kill Him or Kodak Him? :)

We have been trying to potty train Boston for a month or two now and had not had any luck until this last week... sort of. I was cleaning up after breakfast once Tyler and Brooklyn had left for school and all of a sudden I realized Boston was being suspiciously quiet. I quickly found him in our study and could not believe what I was seeing. Boston had removed the top of our heat register, had pulled his pants off and was peeing down into our heating vent! I almost died laughing. When I asked him what he was doing he said, "I peed in the bent".

Below is a picture of Boston explaining to me what had happened. We've obviously got a ways to go on the potty training front but least he knows how to aim!

Oh my gosh! You and your kids have the BEST potty training stories! (ie...Brooklyn throwing her poop outside and then screaming to get it off her hands!) Wow, that is so funny!!!! Good job Bossy! :)

Freakin' hilarious!!! All I have to say is get used to it. Boys love to pee everywhere ie off houseboats, in bushes, in snow, in the backyard, off the top bunk onto the nightstand, off the top bunk on toys, in a cardboard box in their room, at the park.... I could go on, but I wont.

That is so funny!! Is this what I have to look forward to? Good thing it did not take 5 years for you to be able to laugh about it!

Oh man, I bet that's gonna smell up the whole house all winter long! Good for you for Kodaking and not KILLING!!! LOL - Great story!

So funny! I have pee envy. Girls just aren't able to pop a squat anywhere. Austin thinks it's cool to pee on trees. Not cool.

Hahaha! That is hilarious! Don't you love it how much your kids make you laugh at the things they do? So I am so sorry I didn't call while you were in Denver! I realized I didn't put your new cell phone number in my phone. :( Hope you had a great Christmas! I hope I can see you sometime soon. We really gotta get Hal and Brooklyn together!

I know I already commented, but I have to tell you that Drew's new favorite thing to say (ALL the time) is "I peed in the bent". :)

Your post made me laugh out loud! That is one story that he will totally appreciate when he is older. I haven't had to potty train a boy yet, and now I'm not looking forward to it.
