Bathtime!

We are getting closer and closer to taking baths together, without our big duck so I wanted to grab a few pictures since I don't have any yet. Right now, we give them baths alone in this big inflatable duck that sits in the tub. It's been a great tub and they still have room in it, but they are wanting to take baths together now and want to explore the rest of the bathtub. Abby will try to crawl out of the duck sometimes and Jake always plays outside of the duck. I've been putting off this big transition mainly for me. The problem isn't bathing them together now since they're both sitting well and moving around just fine, but rather once I'm ready to get them out. It'll be tough getting them both dried off and dressed for bed at the same time. I usually do all that on the diaper changer in their room, but will have to do it all on the bathroom floor once we make the switch (which will kill my back!!!). I know they'll be more happier as they'll get to play in the tub and stay in longer since I won't have to switch them out. I still have to get two more things before we move out of our duck - a bath mat for inside the tub to help soften falls and a hand held shower sprayer to help hose the suds off the kids once we're done. After I get those, I guess we'll be ready. To be honest, I'm a little sad to see the duck go. It's been a great tub for us.
