The Pee Story

I really wish I had a picture of this story, but sadly I do not carry a camera around my neck. Last night was going to be Liam's first bubble bath. We discovered the bubbles when cleaning out from under the bathroom sink. (the clean out came because of a leaking faucet... really, are you surprised at all).

So we get the bath all ready and Liam is standing to the side of the tub yelling "bubbles! bubbles!". Then I tell him I need him to be a naked baby... which he runs away saying "no... no... no." As usual, I chase him down and strip him naked wherever I catch him. Tonight it was in the kitchen. I take off all clothes including diaper, turn around to go back to the bathroom, this is the point he normally follows. Pol walks in from outside right at this moment, and goes, "Hey, umm, he's peeing." I turn around and Liam is not drizzling pee.. he is full on shooting pee all around him. To which I say "oh Liam!" So once he's done he starts to walk to me... he slips in his pee, falls down, wallows a bit, and cries bloody murder. I scoop him up and I think putting him in the bathtub will cheer him up... he was excited about the bubbles mere moments ago... right?

Wrong.. such a bad idea. I plop him down in the bubbles where he FREAKS out... cannot get the bubbles away from him fast enough. so needless to say it was a speedy bath time. He did not calm down until he was out of the tub and into his comfy pjs.

Lessons learned:
1. Pee can be dangerous
2. Bubbles can be scary

I am just glad Scout didn't think it would be fun to 1. drink the pee or 2. wallow in the pee herself.
