So last evening was Cookies with Santa at GSD’s school, GSS gets antsy after a while at these functions so he and stayed home instead of ruining the time for GSD and DW.

We always have fun together, there is always a few moments of having to parent him but for the most part it’s “Guys Time”. We do stupid stuff, I allow him to do things that would make DW wince (he’s a bit of a daredevil) basically we just enjoy each other alone for a while.

Well as it tends to happen I needed to use the restroom, so being there alone he comes with me, which is fine, I used it as a lesson time in how “Big Boys” use the potty, we are trying potty training so this is just information for further down the line.  I go through the normal “ Don’t touch, that’s dirty” when he tries to touch the bowl but beyond that it’s him repeatedly saying “ Pap Pap going pee pee in the potty “ and me responding, “Yes, I’m going pee pee in the potty, this is how big boys do it” .  Last night he upped the ante and put his little hand right in the stream, looked at and then proceeded to wipe both hands together lol  I was losing it laughing hysterically and hoping to gawd he didn’t touch his face as I was still in m id action and trying desperately to finish up to take care of him.

He’s peed on me plenty of times in his short two years so I guess turnabout is fair play lol
