Dennis was a real character today. He got plenty of sleep last night and his 'funny' genes were full on today. This morning we lost him for a minute at the lake house, always scary, and we fanned out to search. Allison found him leaving the screened porch, and he told her "you have ruined my escape plan!". He had decided to visit the neighbors without telling anyone, so he signed himself up for a nice long safety lecture.
He pooped in the lake today. I never would have believed it--something he never even did as a baby in a swim diaper! He told me he'd done it as he was finishing, and I was horrified at the idea of cleaning out his swimsuit. That wasn't a problem--he informed me that he pulled it down to poop. Swimming was a little less fun after that (since we were keeping our eyes peeled for floating you-know-what). I guess he's a real wilderness kind of guy now. I guess we never told him NOT to poop in the lake... Shortly after that, he told me that rain was what happened when the sun peed in the sky.
Tonight at Walmart (yes, another bathroom story), he and I went to the restroom while Daddy shopped for more gear for his trip (I think he grossly underestimated his cost for a hiking vacation, but we do want to make sure he has everything he needs). Dennis was in the bathroom stall next to mine. I heard him go to the sink and wash his hands, and then I heard him say "ahhh...that was refreshing!!".
The picture shows him making a hand puppet out of our Whataburger table number. We got home tonight to discover that our air conditioner was broken and deemed it too hot to cook. We ate out and then went to see the fireworks, a great conclusion to a really fun weekend.
