Tidbits

I told Henry, "You're fickle."
He said, "Not that fickle."

Today in the car I stretched my arm out the window as we drove home from downtown and Henry told me not to do that. I asked him why and he told me that it is dangerous because if the window closed it would break my arm forever and then I would have to throw it away.

Yikes.

The other night Henry announced that he didn't like diapers and wanted to wear underwear (Hallelujah!), so he climbed into underwear after using the potty. All went well, we were hanging out in his room, him on his big blue bouncy dog, when I asked, "Do you want to pee?"
(I learned a valuable lesson when he just started to pee and I watched it as it ran down his leg and pooled at his feet. The question is not "do you want to pee,", but "do you need to go to the potty?" I know better than this...)

So, we cleaned up, talked about accidents, and Hen went to the bathroom where he used the potty. I got to the bathroom a bit later and dropped my jaw clean to the ground as I watched him stand at big toilet peeing. He turned around as happy as can be and announced that he peed like Daddy. He was so proud and wore underwear until bedtime, didn't want to change to a diaper for bedtime, and then the next day wouldn't wear underwear.

Sigh.
