Crowded tub

I think we may need a bigger tub soon. We're getting a little crowded.

One of the girls favorite activities is taking a bath. Sometimes it's bubbles, sometimes alphabet letters that stick on the sides of the tub, and sometimes just cups. But one thing that's become a big part of bathtime is touching noses to the bottom of the tub.

My little fish, J, started the fun. The other day when Andy was giving the girls a bath, J went under to touch her nose to the bottom of the tub. Andy waited for her to resurface ... and waited, and waited. Finally he called out, "J! Come up!" She came up smiling.

So that's our new little game. Who can touch their nose to the bottom of the tub and leave it there for a little while? Woo Hoo, sounds fun! A little scary, huh? I'm just hoping the instinctive need for oxygen doesn't fail us.
And as far as the "crowd" goes, A will be thrown into the mix pretty soon, making the crowd impossible. So I'm thinking we'll be moving to two baths. One for C and M, and one for J and A. Good thing is that C and M can take a bath all by themselves! My girls are growing up too fast!
