Living in a house full of men is interesting to say the least. Things that are taboo for women are free reign for men. I grew up in a house full of women. I have 2 older sisters and was raised by a single mother. We had our fair share of cat fights, jealousy, and wardrobe issues. However, in a house full of XY chromosomes, the everyday happenings are of a different caliber.
Girls catfight. Boys wrestle.
Girls are jealous. Boys wrestle.
Girls want to look their best for boys. Boys tear their clothes while wrestling.
Girls eat very little. Boys inhale food in between wrestling matches.
Girls use the bathroom facilities when nature calls. Boys…well boy’s don’t.
Case in point. Yesterday I walked out onto my back porch to feed Rocco.
This is my back porch.
It is a nice and roomy, covered back porch. I enjoy it thoroughly. Most days. But most days I do not walk outside to feed the dog and find myself slack-jawed and wide-eyed. “Nolan, are you peeing on my porch?!”
Yup, some days I wish I shared the house with another XX chromosome.
I am linking up today with Rachel and Mr. Daddy from Once Upon A Miracle.
42 Validations To Make Me Feel Worthy:
Ooh am I FIRST? HAHA... See I'm practicing. You and Kimber are so going down.
HaHa!!! Oh I can SO feel your pain! I know what you're going through!
LOL! Nice of Nolan to give you a little sprinkle on the porch. My boys BEG me to let them pee outside. The only time I let them is when they've been swimming and they hop out and pee in the grass. I swear they get so excited about it they'll pee 20 times.
My boys pee outside all the time...but on the porch is another story! One of mine did get in trouble a few weeks ago for peeing on a stepping stone that I have in the backyard!
haha thats funny and yes all boys do is wrestle haha
My boys would NEVER do that! Yeah right! : )
Brandi!!!!! haaaaaaahaaaaaa she is on the ball!!!
yep...sounds just like a boy
LOL oh can I relate! My 5 year old son has been caught four times opening the back door to pee out @@ gotta love boys..
Kids pee all over around Europe, it seems. There were times we just had to do the same with our newly potty trained daughter (like on the palace lawn here once). When we got back to the States, she'd say she had to potty and would say, "I'll just go here (front lawn)!" We had to do a little retraining...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! nice.
what is it with boys wanting to go outside....
Ha ha ha ha!! I sympathize with you. My husband has taught both our boys to pee outside. In public. Once on a gold course. Boys stink! But it's still funny!
LOL! My two oldest bros are 1 year apart (actually 361 days) and one day my mom got a call from the neighbor saying the boys were peeing outside. My mom first asked them if they peed outside and they both denied it. Then she asked them which side of the house they peed on and both pointed to the west side. LOL BOYS!
Yep, that is a boy all right! I LOVE your back porch, I want it!! But, could you clean up the urine first?
I love your back porch! I should tell you about that time when my youngest took a crap in my neighbor's front yard. Fun times.
Oh Boy! You girls with your boy peeing stories…Today I am so happy to be the mommy of little girls who have to sit down to pee. :D
Ohhhh, ahahahaha! If it makes you feel any better, G loves to take off her diapers these days and run for the nearest corner to pee!!!
I can't wait to get the book; thanks again for sending it!

Confessions From A Working Mom
LOL! You are SOOO right about boys!
I covet your porch. Pee and all.
Yes, my son and the neighbor kid were caught peeing by a tree in our apartment complex. I was so shocked and embarrassed. My son's reply was: "Mom it's no big deal, nobody even lives in the apartment where that tree is anyway!"
LOL BOYS!!!!
I've always said, there's some crucial stuff on that leg of the "X" that when taken away makes it a "Y." Stuff like table manners, the desire NOT to live in a pigsty, and the motivation to pee indoors.
Nooooo! What is it with boys and peeing outside? I think they just do because they can.
Oh dear. See, that's why God gave me all girls. I don't know that I'd know what to do with a boy! :) I keep thinking someday we may have a boy, and what will I do then? Love him to pieces, porch-pee and all, I suppose :)
LOL! Peeing on the porch...yep, sounds like a typical boy :)
I have missed you girl. My blogging (or lack there of) is horrible these days! Hope to get back to a normal pace again soon.
Funny TST!
Lol gotta love how boys just don't care where they pee at. When they have to go they just go lol.
Sometimes I wonder what the men in our lives would do if they wandered outside after we took out the trash, and just happened to find us (dressed in a lovely skirt and perhaps galoshes for this scenario, and living eight miles out a dirt road where no Google satellites can find us) sqattin' by a fencepost watering the flowers.
I bet they would not be pleased.
Just sayin'.
AH HA HA HA! I am cracking up over here! So funny, that little guy is! My MIL always tells a story about my husband when he was about 4. He was standing in the back of a shopping cart at the grocery store and when my MIL turned to get something off the shelf, he starting peeing out the side of the cart onto the floor. She picked him up and headed for the door, leaving her cart and groceries right there!
LOL my neighbors sons just pee anywhere. Last summer we caught the two year old peeing on his dad's truck tire. LOL When you gotta go you gotta go. No time to track down a potty. LOL
Funny
That is too funny. I have a bunch of those stories. My kids all it a country tee-tee. They just pull down and go. It must me nice!
lol...boys will be BOYS
You need a girl dog.
LOL
I do have another girl in this house but she still insists on peeing on the floor instead of the toilet. :/
He
Did
Not
!!!!
Little stinker! Who taught him that? Can't automatically blame Chris, since he's got three male figures to look up to.
But golly kid... couldn't you water the grass?!?!
Sorry, still laughing here. At least he didn't write his name, right???
And this officially means you got more comments than me... on my own carnival.
So no whining next time I whup your butt at BOB ;)
hahaha! I looked out back one day to find one of my boys peeing through the slats of their playland. Up high for all the neighbors to see! Luckily they weren't peeing in to the neighbors yard!
that is just too funny. I too am surrounded by boys. I wanted a daughter didn't happen. Hoped for a granddaughter that hasn't happened yet. We even have a boy dog a boy fish. Hmmmmm
oh no!! The little stinker!! When we lived in China - kids pee all over the place (well, everyone did actually), but kids everywhere - so when we couldn't find a toilet I would let my son just take a whizz in the trees too! Once we returned it was hard to break that habit!
OMG! hahahaha! He could have at least been peeing in the grass. I love kids.
Oh no! ::snickers::
But seriously, as the mother of a boy...is this what I have to look forward to down the road?!
My parents potty-trained my baby brother during the summer...and my Dad taught him how to pee on trees. Big mistake. Big, huge mistake. Yeah, I think there's a future TST post in this story. Let's put it this way -- he mortified me at the playground one day that summer!
Boys will always be boys, even when they ar grown!
I have a long list of Tex. bloggers and will add your name to my list. Hope you will come and visit and be a follower.

I have 4 boys also. I think they pee because they're proud of it. I've said this: have you ever noticed they can't hit a hole bigger than their head but they *can* hit a bug on the side of a tree from 4 feet away?
