Embrace the Camera~ Bathtime Fun?

Bath time is full of mixed emotion for me...it always starts out like this:
But half ways through it ends up more like this:

When I first plop them in the tub Elsie happily plays with the toys and James happily splashes around...

But all to soon I find them standing far more than sitting...and the cute little splashes soon become bit tidal waves of foot stomping splashing...It never fails I always end up almost as wet as the kids...

James always decides to get out of tub way before bath time is over...he gets out and plays for a minute or two...then he climbs back in. I know this is only a phase because he has just discovered how to get in and out...but it is a little annoying just the same!

I am certain that one of kids would instantly drowned if I left the edge of the tub...so I sit on the little stool and play with the kids...sometimes being goofy with a shower cap on my head (because without laughter I would go crazy!)...other times I roll up my pant legs and dangle my feet in the tub...and the kids rub lots and lots of soap on my feet! I think of it like a relaxing foot massage!

Out of tub again...I think he is slowly getting better with staying in the tub...maybe!

Crazy kids...they make bath time more work than it is possibly worth...but to hear such happy laughter it makes it all worthwhile...simple fun...

This is TOO CUTE. LOVE your shower cap!! Bath time is sure fun,aside from playing with them I sometimes use that time to read while sitting on the toilet.
