bath buddies

the babies have always enjoyed their little plastic tub, but nothing compares to their smiles in the big bath!  with a few inches of water and tons of little cups, they literally go wild.  cups are in both hands and shoved in their mouths.  they then proceed to flail their arms around throwing water all over the tub and us.  unfortunately, the uncontrolled flailing often results in smacking the other baby in the head...oops!  logistically it takes some coordination, especially when i'm alone, but it's definitely worth it to watch how much fun they have.

the cups are in their mouths 90% of time

for the other 10%, the cups are tools to toss water out of the tub

i think he was worried i would steal his favorite toy

number one bath rule: each baby must keep their butt on a frog

finally livi meets another head her size

just as bones uses his sniffer,
the babes use their tongues to discover the world

the cutest playmates

in addition to toys, odin likes to put his friends in his mouth

they went crazy when we gave them the entire toy box
