It's loads of fun when it's time for everyone to get a bath. It's probably more comical watching me try to keep the kids from standing up in the tub. I finally got rid of both of the bath seats so there is nothing to keep them sitting down anymore. I know I must be crazy for doing that but I didn't like keeping them in the bath seats. I never used one for Lenny because they are so restricting.
Lenny has become a nice helper for me at bath time. I get the tub ready and then get Brooke and Nathan undressed. I then carry Brooke to the bathroom and Lenny holds Nathan's hand and walks him to the bathroom. Otherwise, Nathan would be anywhere but the bathroom. It's very cute to see it. I'll get a picture soon and post it.
So tonight, while Dominic cleaned the kitchen, the babies got their bath. I feel like I'm constantly trying to get a baby to sit down the entire time. First one will stand up, then the next. And of course, they also crawl around in the tub too. I'm a nervous wreck before the bath is over.
Lenny was so ready to take a bath tonight that he got undressed before I even got the babies out of the tub and changed the water. So he was running around in his birthday suit. I got Nathan out of the tub and he and Lenny walked to Lenny's room. I then proceeded to get Brooke out. Since Lenny and Nathan were happy, I decided to go ahead and get Brooke ready for bed. I was in Nathan's room getting Brooke's pajamas on her and I asked Lenny what Nathan was doing. The next thing I see is Nathan running (naked mind you) down the hallway with one of Lenny's toys and he was laughing. Behind Nathan was Lenny (also naked) running and laughing saying "give me my toy". It was quite funny. Brooke and I just feel sorry for each other since we have to deal with all these boys in the house. Dominic came upstairs just in time to see the last of the streak through our hallway.
Yes, it's a barrel of laughs around here.
From the Mouth of a Three Year Old
Tonight we were having leftovers for dinner from the last few days because the refrigerator was full of them. Anyway, we were deciding who wanted what and I asked Lenny if he would like some mashed potatoes. He said, "No, I wouldn't. I like mashed potatoes but I wouldn't like some." He cracks me up because he is always so sure to answer questions precisely. He would never just say "no".
Finally!
