Thoughts from a Three Year Old

Our dear Gideon says the funniest things and I am having a hard time knowing which to share because in typical boy fashion WAY to many of his quotes deal with potty issues. So three of the four still relate to butts and potty, I just had to share anyway. Enjoy :)

**After swimming he was changing back into clothes and had to go potty.  He heads to the bathroom naked and comes back to his room saying, "Mom, do you want to feel my butt? It is SO clean!!"

**We were in the backyard, the kids were swinging and Briella kept asking for an underdog; Gideon did not want an underdog.  After awhile he says, "Mom, I want an underwear dog."  :) I was smiling and asked him what he said. "Please can I have an underwear dog?!?" 

**During a recent bath Gideon got a little too much water in his mouth/nose/eyes and was crying rather dramatically.  One of his parents (cough) made a comment that he wasn't going to die and needed to stop crying.  For the next bath and hair rinsing he didn't cry and proudly states, "See, I'm not going to die!!" 

**Gideon, again a typical boy, is often asked if he needs to go potty or told to just go potty.  The other day he came back from the bathroom very quickly and I asked him if he had gone potty. He said he hadn't and I asked why not.  His intriguing reply: "Jesus didn't make me that way."

Can you find my favorite two boys?!?

Boys!!! How old is Gideon? I can't believe he is potty-trained already! Good for you!

Angie, I started with him around his second birthday and he did great :) So he has been trained since he was barely two! I was so excited that he got it right away (Briella was excited, too so that helped him) and he started sleeping dry right away,too. He is my favorite kid for sure ;)

LOL.. Gideon. We are all glad your butt is so clean, but I don't think anyone is going to want to touch it :)
I think I see Asher's eyeball and striped outfit peeking out? Gideon may have a shadow once Asher starts walking - FUN!

Asher crawled under the chair and Gideon called me to come over to see them hiding together. He was so happy :) I can't wait until they can really play together, but I'm guessing it could get dangerous ...
