Lifetime Member of The Pen15 Club
June4
So it’s been a pretty rough week. Alex has donned his devil horns and has been literally plotting my eventual demise, not that I really blame him. But I just had the most hilarious exchange with someone who knows approximately 5 words:
(On the changing table)
Me: You have a full diaper. Let’s change it.
Alex (reaching downward): Penis.
Me: Yes, you have a penis.
Alex (poking penis painfully with index finger): Penis!
Me: Yup. That’s a penis all right.
Alex (gripping penis between thumb and index finger) Penis! Hahahahaha!
Me (sighs): That’s how I felt the first time I saw one.
HA HA!!! First of all, the PEN15 club is very exclusive. At work, we just “inducted” a new coworker into the club. He wore a badge around all day until someone clued him in on the joke. Second, I am so glad I have a girl.
HAHA. Who knew boys got so obsessed with their penises so early? I think I am in for a rude awakening with this boy…
You are too funny. I still feel that way sometimes!
It’s always pretty funny, too, when they squeeze, pull or flick it. I’m referring to babies and toddlers.
It’s not so funny when they are 35.
Oh my… needed that giggle…
From birth to death, they’re obsessed with that thing. He’ll be humping the floor any day now. Oh, hell, if I had one, I’d never leave it alone!!
Thanks for helping me pee in my pants just a little!
LOL – thanks for sharing what it’s like to have a boy.
I don’t think that males ever get over the miracle of their own, personal penis. But at least they’re honest about it.
Bless ’em.
Hey, the penis is about the coolest thing we have on our bodies! A little wonder and awe is well justified. 🙂
Seriously funny post!
Little boys and their toys.
Back when the boy was about Alex’s age, I was telling our pediatrician about his (the boy’s, that is) obsession with playing with it and twisting/pinching at it, when he and E exchanged a knowing look and informed me, almost simultaneously, “yeah, well, he’ll be doing that for the rest of his life!”
So glad I only have girls!
I hope when he grows up, girls won’t point at his penis and say “Penis! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
I love how into their little manhood these guys are. And their p-nises are so fricken cute, so I cannot blame them.
they still do that when they’re older too. boys are weird.
I think the fact it’s always there, dangling, would drive me crazy. . . .
My first thought was “wow, that’s ugly!”
Becky anytime I need to laugh I know I can count on you lol
I’m going to second (or third) the emotion that I’m grateful for girls. That’s a story for the baby book.
The hobby that will last a lifetime, showing it to girls and thinking they’ll be as impressed as he is with his little friend:)
Typical male!!
ROFLOL!!!
I was babysitting these kids, a boy (oldest), a girl (middle) and another boy (youngest). The youngest boy was about 3…he still had to have someone watch him go potty (lucky for me it was only pee). As he waited for the golden showers, he looked up at me and said, I have a little penis, my brother has a bigger penis, and my dad has a REALLY BIG PENIS. I think that sums up what they think about from age zero to death.
What a crack-up. That so beats “dog”, “mum” and “ta”, which are the type of things jasper is saying!
OMG that’s funny!! Mine just grabs it, no words for it yet. It’s awkward enough for me to see him playing with it… I don’t know how I’ll feel when he knows the name for it!! 🙂
My little guy has always been very gentle with his. Whenever he’s without his undies he cradles it in the palm of his hand like a dainty butterfly.
I think he’s afraid it’s going to fall off!
Mine just tugs on his, and I think “that has GOT to hurt!” But he laughs.
Ah yes, boys will be boys… and auny becky will be aunt Becky…
Gage STILL asks me why I don’t have a penis.
“you lost it?”
“you broke it?”
“you put it in the ‘cycle bin?” (recycle bin)
…and I still crack up every time!
At least now I know what I have to look forward to if I have a boy this time around…thanks for the laugh Becky!
That is too funny! Sad that I laugh still when I see a pen15! I mean seriously a garden hose on a man, really, c’mon now!
I still can’t figure out how guys run with those things! lol
Hilarious. I love your kids.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
LMAO How hilarious! Glad I found your blog. My son is 3 months old today, can’t wait until he discovers his dong. Guess he probably needs to find his hands first.

Good to know thinking with that part of the anatomy starts early.
Sounds like Alex and Phoenix would get along famously. Both love their penis’ and being a pain in the ass to their mothers.
OMG that totally sounds like DREW. Except, he can’t say it. He certainly knows it is there though. My teenager is totally grossed out by it! I think it is hilarious.
Too funny! Lovebug still grabs his and grins every time I change him.
