Pick your battles

Scene: Charlotte and I are in the bathtub together. She points to my nipple and then to hers.

Charlotte: “Mommy…mine is red likes yours.”

Me: “Yes, Honey.” (stifling giggle)

Charlotte: “When I get bigger, mine will get bigger like yours.”

Me: “Yep.” (she will sorely be disappointed if she inherits my cup size)

Charlotte: “Mommy, daddy said I can pee in the tub.”

Me: “No, you cannot pee in the tub.”

Charlotte: “But daddy said.”

Me: “Daddy lied.”

Me: “If you pee in the tub, you will pee on me.”

She splashes to the back of the tub.

Charlotte: “Ill do like this.” and waves the water in the opposite direction as if pushing it away.

Me: “No, Charlotte, if you pee in the tub, ill get out. Then we won’t be together.”

Silence.

She farts.

Me: “Charlotte, you know you can’t poop in the tub, right?”

Charlotte: “Yes, we only toot in the tub. That’s it.”

Whew. That got scary for a minute.

    And that’s why I don’t bathe with children. Not even as babies did I take my kids in with me because I was afraid of getting pooped on.

  2. Jenn says:

    Cute, my three older ones were in the tub one time together when they were little and the youngest did it! hahaha Boy did his sisters scream !

  3. valmg says:

    When my oldest was little he saw me dressing and called them “pacys” which is what he called his pacifiers back then.
    To my knowledge there was no peeing in the tub.
    My youngest farts in the tub and yells “bubbles”.

    Ha ha ha! That last line got me. Kaydence has pooed in the tub twice, thank goodness I wasn’t with her.

  5. Oh geez, peeing in the tub. *sigh*

    One time, I was in the bathtub, starting a bath for me and my 1 yr old son. When I turned my head to get the water temp right, my husband starts cracking up and says, “he’s peeing on you!” When I look, I see my son playing, “I’m the Dog, Mommy’s the Fire Hydrant”

  6. LOL! that was so funny…My daughter still cannot talk (only 6months old), I am looking forward to moments like these.

    I love it!
    My daughter wanted to know why milk didn’t come out of her boob like it did mine for her baby brother. When my oldest was 2 I was pumping for my daughter and I found him in the bathroom with his shirt up and the pump exactly where is supposed to be. How can you not laugh at your kids when they say and do the funniest things.

    ROFL that is so funny!! My daughter always asks if her boobs will be as big as mine when she grows up and I tell her “Girl I hope not” (mine are huge from nursing three children and NOPE I was the unlucky Mom who got bigger rather than SMALLER afterwards). Kids are just too cute!

  9. Matt says:

    Oh my goodness. I absolutely love your posts! Thanks for sharing your conversation!!

    ROFL Snort

  11. At least she asks before she pees. I know of some others who pee first and deal with consequences later.

  12. Melissa says:

    LMAO!

  13. At least she didn’t say that her boobs would be LONG like yours one day. My friend’s daughter told her that – that she wanted “long” boobs (not “big” boobs) like mommy. Guess all that nursing turned them south.
    ;-)

  14. Marianna says:

    LOL! Daddy just got ratted out.

  15. Laurie says:

    LOL, dont ya love how candid and honest kids are? LOL

  16. Hokkeymom says:

    LMAO. I’d have been scared. VERY scared!

  17. Rachel says:
