Wink It's an elephant!

So, I'm sure we've all done some cloud gazing. Looking at the big fluffy clouds passing by and saying "that one looks like a giraffe on a bicycle."

Of course DS, who is very proud of what he does in the potty, gazes at his poops.

So, the other night DS is up on the toilet and announces that "I made an elephant!"

I shout up (yeah we're one of those families) "you made a what?"

DS "I made an elephant poop!"

So I went up and sure enough it did look like an elephant.

This morning he did a sail boat. I have this sinking feeling our lives have taken a strange turn onto a road I never expected to go down.

My dd has done that before, but that phase seems to have passed.

I saw a ladybug massager at goodwill, would that be too weird?

my toddler pooped on the floor last night, and it stood up straight (kinda like a tower).. I told my husband that she made the "coolest I've ever seen"

Soren was very proud, and sad when we flushed it..

Kids are so hilariously gross!!! I love it.

E went through a phase where she'd name them (if there were 6 pieces, she'd say there's the daddy, the mummy, the big sister, the little brother, the cat, and the cat vitamin, going from biggest to smallest).

Ha ha! It passed! Get it??



I like how having little kids freed me up to enjoy gross humor. Even to enjoy an artful take on a pile of poo.

Hahaha!

I remember when I was in high school, we had a little girl play a small little girl part in the play. Well, one of the other girls my age took her to the bathroom when she had to go. I happened to be there when she came out she had this sheepish look on her face. She said, "I made up a dirty joke!"

"Oh?"
"Where did Tigger find Pooh?"
"Where?"
"In the toilet!"

The two of us older girls found it funny.

DS1, at around 14 months, pooped for the first time on the potty chair. Pointed at the poop & said "nana" (banana). Sooo funny. It was really shaped exactly like a banana.
