My young son has decided that life sometimes is best lived without a diaper.
Well, young man! You should at least learn to march right to the bathroom when you decide to piddle.... and aim at the potty chair, when you're in there, not at my leg! Hmph!
He first ripped off a poopy diaper, left it in one of the girls' bedrooms, and deposited a puddle by the dining room table. I discovered the little yellow puddle, cleaned it up, cleaned him up, put on a fresh diaper, and went to wash my hands. While I was in there, I decided to go to the potty myself, and while I was sitting there, he marched in, started chatting to me, and as I was looking down at him, I noticed what looked like a string blowing around (I assumed blowing from the vent air) .... then suddenly felt warmth and something wet draining down my leg. It was a little yellow string...or stream...! I yelped, he stopped mid-stream, walked a little bit away, then as I was looking at him, laughing and laughing, he proceeded to unload another stream right in the direction of the bathroom vent!
By this time I was just howling and trying so hard to tell him to stop all this nonsense already!!! He just looked at me and finished draining his bladder!
My goodness, kiddo! I mean, I understand freeing Willy every once in a while but please!!! Tell Willy to just keep it in his bladder unless he's at least aiming at the potty chair!
On the positive note: As I was cleaning up one of the puddles, one of my lovely daughters said, "Well, on one hand it's not so bad! The cleanup always smells so good!" I have Pine-Sol and water in a spray bottle so I don't have to get the mop bucket out for every little mess.

Oh, I'm just laughing out loud here. Your first boy!
I suppose one cannot complain when the clean up smells so good...I have discovered Mr.Clean with Febreeze, which smells really good...not that it makes me WANT to clean up messes...
Now you know the joy of boys. They love whizzing on anything. Mine used to pee in a hole in the wall. Really!
Okay - pinesol in a spray bottle is a good idea! I keep those antibacterial wipes in the bathroom at all times - and am often chasing down some pee dribbles from somewhere. The joy of boys - tho' I'm not always thinking it's so joyful as I'm wiping the toilet at least once a day!
Speaking of boys and peeing ... our 3rd boy wandered out of bed a few nights ago (was about midnight, and I was still up) so I was, of course, trying to shoo him to the bathroom. He settled on the couch, but I knew that wasn't a good place for him because I wasn't wanting to clean pee from there. So once I convinced him to get off the couch, I re-focused on my book for a moment, until my attention caught on drawers opening and closing rapidly in the kitchen. I zoned in to what's happening, just in time to see him start peeing in the drawer of dish towels, pot holders, etc. Oh boy! Well - could have been worse, I guess. It's easy enough to wash dish towels, but guess if I jumped up fast when I realized what's going on?!! And he had no clue the next morning that he had even been up! We got a good chuckle over it the next morning!
The Mr. Clean with Febreze sounds really good...I'll have to pick some up and try it!
And Joni-that reminds me of the story of E's brother, Sak. Have you ever heard it? When they had a houseful of company and Sak had been asleep already....he suddenly came out of the bedroom, I think he opened the closet door and peed into the gargage can, right in full view of the living room full of company, turned around and went back to bed. He didn't remember anything in the morning either. :)
