Oh, how I am going to tease you with this, my dear Pepe

We had a lovely afternoon today, Pepe and I. I picked him up from school early - usually Tuesday he is home but Chris had to work early today (and his guilt meant early am pre work trips to McDonald's and Toys R Us...but I digress). We played chase at the playground. We went to the pizza place where Pepe had an entire slice of pepperoni pizza and one huge "gorilla icecream sandwich". We bought a book (the store has used items and donates money to charity). We used the crosswalk, 5 times. We went to the movie store where Pepe picked a Wiggles tape and a Here comes a boat tape (2 for 1 Tuesday). We stayed in line together, and I was about to pay when I turn around to see Pepe, and I see him all right - taking poop out of his butt and throwing it around. I did not panic, nooooo. I excused myself - the woman behind the counter had a frozen face by this time - picked the poop out, took Pepe by the hand, went outside, found a trash can for the poop, had a talk to Pepe, used a bit of hand sanitizer (thank God), and went inside the store and payed. Both myself and the woman behind the counter were very happy to part....

I really don't think Pepe has any understanding of what he does. I think it gets uncomfortable to have poop in his diaper, which is a good thing and should help with potty training (when we do do it). Until then, well, hopefully it will not be a daily throw the poop contest (I did not blog about his throwing poop episode yesterday, when I picked up 3 bags of pooped clothes along with Pepe in the afternoon..
