Funny Conversations

A couple of humorous conversations yesterday with Andrew.

In the afternoon, I was outside for a little while, and when I came in, Andrew was standing next to Grandma sans pants. She was holding up his pants and had his shoes sitting next to her.

I was very surprised. "What happened to your pants?"

Grandma said, "He came over here without pants."

I continued, "Did you take your pants off?"

He noded. I picked him up and found he needed a diaper change, so I carried him upstairs. As I did, he exclaims happily, "I took off my pants!" Great to acquire new skills, but I have no idea why he took off his pants at that moment. It was pretty bizarre. It's hard to get him to try taking off of his own clothes, normally.

When we were upstairs and I was changing his diaper, he says, "I take off my penis!"

"No, that doesn't come off."

A reinforcing conversation on the unique and private nature of penises, including how girls don't have them, was interrupted by an exclamation, "Girls have small penises!"

"No, they don't have any penises. Only boys have penises."

"Girls have HAIR penises!"

Libby and I looked at each other in shock. What the?

"No, girls don't have any penises."

We've tried to make this a normal and unremarkable part of his anatomy, but for some reason it has a fascination to him.
