Diaper Lottery

Lately, every time I change my baby's diaper, his big brother will accompany me with some interesting commentary. At first I thought it was just curiosity from my five year old.

"Is it pee? Let me see. It's peepee."
"Did he poop? Yea? Poopoo? Ok."

Then I thought he was trying to tease me. I mean, who wants to change a diaper anyway.

"Peepee? Ha!"
"You gotta change poopie? Yea!"

At first I was mad, but then I realized it's not that either. It was a game.

"Did he pee or poop, mama? Pee? Yes!"
"Pee or poo? Nice!"
"Poopie? Ha! I was right!"

Ok, this child is a little too excited about his brother's bodily functions. It's not like we are talking about farts. Farts are funny. What is going on?

He was "right"? Wait a minute. What do you mean you were right?
"I guess what is in his diaper and I'm always right."

Ew. It's a game. A gross diaper-content-guessing game. Well I've witnessed stranger things, so I can't say I'm completely surprised that's what he's been doing.

You have to love your kids' quirks. After all, in some way, I'm sure they got them from you.
