Too Smart, Too Soon


I have always thought my little Ethan was really smart. I don't know how much of that is the fact that I'm his mother, or the fact that he really is quite smart. Anyways, the other day a song came on the radio that I really liked, so when we got home I just parked in the garage and was listening to it. After we had sat there for a few seconds Ethan says "what we doing?" and I replied, "Mommy is just listening to this song, when it gets over we'll go inside." It was then quite for a little longer and then Ethan said, "Mommy, I need to go Pee Pee!" I look back at him and ask, "are you sure you can't wait a few minutes?" Ethan of course looks at me like I'm crazy and says, "No, I need to go pee pee!" So I turn the car off and get the kids inside. When I get inside Ethan is already playing with some toys so I say, "Ethan, I thought you had to go Pee Pee." He smiles and says, "I no need to go pee pee!" I can't believe the little dude outsmarted me. It's just not fair with potty training, you never know when he really needs to go, or when he is trying to get out of doing something else... Like go to sleep, sit down at church or picking up toys!

Steph,
Ethan does great when it's pee pee, but he refuses to Poo in the toilet... IT's so annoying.. He just wont do it! Good luck with Zack, the boys and the girls were so cute on Thursday!
