Part Two

It was two nights later and the parents had chuckled repeatedly over the mishap in the bathtub. They figured that every parent has a similar story, and had even recorded theirs in writing for posterity.

After the boy's bath on this night, the parents were watching him toddle around his room bare-bottomed as they did every night. For a few minutes each evening the wee lad had an opportunity to squirmel around as god made him, much to the amusement of anyone in attendance. This night, the boy stopped in mid-play and made an eerily familiar noise with an equally as familiar body stance. "He's peeing" said the dad. "He seems to be working hard at it" replied the mom. As she lifted him when he was through to delinquently transfer him to a diaper she was forced to stop as something dropped from the boy's backside. "What is that?" asked the father in shock. Does it go without saying what had appeared? But of course it was more from the bowels of the babe. After discarding the aforementioned poo the father was perhaps a bit out of sorts. He returned to the bedroom with a bottle of Pet Stain and Odor Remover (!) for the spot of urine.

Aside from the formal tone of this story, the rest is 100% true to fact. The parents are eagerly awaiting "Part Three" which will hopefully occur in the doctor's office for the boy's one-year appointment next week.

  1. Ummm...I don't even know what to say. I'm sure that's 'normal'....umm.....yeah, normal. What the heck? Does he want to 'christen' every room? : )

  2. Hey, your dog must feel like he's quite the good boy or hero around there lately...thinking he hasn't done THAT in ages. I can see the dog shaking his head in disappointment, thinking, "Oh dear...they are not going to be happy about that one."

    Actually I read a story about some poo in the bathtub on another blog lately...must be a common theme amongst little ones. Great.
