Silly Boy

(Warning - Bathroom topic...but not gross)
When I picked Avery up from school this afternoon at about 3 he said we had to get home "super fast! But not too fast over bumps!" He said he had to use the bathroom "really, really, really, bad". So of course on the way home we had to stop for the slowest teenagers ever to cross the street, a school bus dropping off some kids, and a kid crossing the street a few houses down from us. So for Avery it felt like our 2 minute drive was taking 2 hours.

When we got home I let him get out first and I heard him running up the stairs and thumping around while I was getting the littles out. I just thought he was being frantic, why is it that when kids want to be fast they get spastic? They seem to think the crazier they move their bodies the faster that means they're going?! Anyway...after I came up stairs he was done and that was over.

A few minutes later I heard the boys talking about their super hero costumes and Jack asked Avery "what are you wearing under your Iron Man suit? That's when I noticed Avery wasn't wearing his Iron Man suit. Or so I though. He lifted up his shirt to reveal his costume under his regular clothes, he wore it all day to school. And because it's a one piece costume, under jeans and a long sleeved shirt he hadn't used the bathroom since 7:30am.

No wonder he had to go to the bathroom so bad.

That is so funny. My kids are always in rush to get home to the bathroom and I keep telling them go at school. Its an emergency to get to our bathroom every day it seems. I've never had an ironman problem though. The boys are gonna love hearing this story.
