Rub a Dub Dub...

Three kids in the tub...

After a nice Saturday of going to the tree house in Norhtbrook Court, lunch at Potbelly's, quiet time and lots of family time we thought the kids could use a bath.  Cooper was not seeming to be in the mood - he's not too fond of the tub.  After a little milk, his mood improved and in he went!  All 3 kids in the tub together - same way it usually happens.  But, tonight was different..........

For a while now, the girls select one dissolvable color tablet for the tub.  They each pick either a red, blue or yellow tab to put in the water and we talk about color mixing as their bath fills up.  Well, today Erin picked red, Ev choose blue and Cooper added yellow. But wait....

See what I mean is that while Cooper was getting washed, I guess the warm water must have worked its magic because he aimed right over in his little bath seat and started peeing on Ev.  At first Ev just looked at what was going on stunned and wordless.  Nancy didn't notice this, but I did.  Ev looked at her belly, looked at the stream, looked at her belly, and then looked at Cooper trying to figure out exactly what was going it.  It stopped .. but about a second later Cooper reloaded for another dousing.  This time Nancy saw it just about the same time Ev was able to put it all together.  Nancy and I were SO good at not bursting out laughing when Ev started getting this really disgusted look on her face.

Nancy broke the silence by asking "Ev, what just happened?"
"Cooper peed on me!" she said.
"Well, that's not using his manners is it?" Nancy said between giggles tryinig not to make a big deal out it this.
At this point Erin who didn't really see anything started laughing as she learned what had just happened.
Ev was a good sport at which point we all pretty much broke down laughing.

Last week, Erin fell into the toilet ... which is another story (I mean completely fell in the toilet complete with a wet bottom and all!), but in short order both Erin and Evelyn have good bathroom stories to tell.

Ellie fell into the toilet too - one time she was so anxious to get on the toilet before bed that she just plopped right on there before realizing the potty seat wasn't on. Fell all the way to the bottom. Too funny!!!
