Boys Will be Boys?

Is the phrase "boys will be boys" true? I don't know if I truly believed that but I am starting to think there might be some truth behind it. Yesterday, we were in the car line to pick up Gracie from school and Cameron declares he really really really really has to go potty. What do I do? I tried to be resourceful so I empty out a water bottle and let him go potty in the water bottle. I explained to him that this was a one time deal and it is not something we will do ever again. He said ok. As I am getting dinner ready, I hear he is very quiet so I go to the bedroom to see what he is doing. I am FLOORED at what I see. Cameron is peeing in a bowl! Yup, he is peeing in a bowl. I try to be very (and I mean very) patient and ask him why he did what he did. This was his response. "Well, you let me pee in a water bottle so I wanted to pee in a bowl". Backfire, backfire, backfire was all that was running through my head. I can't spank him at this point so I sit down and explain that we have to go potty in the toilet and ONLY in the toilet. If I had not let him pee in the bottle he would have peed in his chones (underwear). I don't know if it worked or not but I am going to have to keep a close eye on this little one. He is wearing me out!

Monster Jam

I think going to a Monster Jam is going to become an annual event with our family. We have had a busy couple of weeks, it was nice to have something to look forward to. Cameron was so excited he didn't go to bed until 1:30 a.m. It might have been all the sugar intake as well.
