Three babies in the tub! Daddy and I decided last night that they were sitting up well enough, and we were feeling adventurous enough, that we plopped all three babies in one tub of water! I washed, Daddy snapped pictures, and I think the babies had a good time - although I was wetter then normal, and it took longer then normal. Too much playing going on!
W took some time to warm up. He was originally in the middle, and both his brother and sister were splashing. He kept shooting them dirty looks, and wiping his face. We moved him to an end, and he did much better. However, he believes that rubber duckies are good chew toys, rather then floaties!
B had a BLAST!!! He started splashing the second we put him in, and didn't stop until we took him out. He also decided that he was responsible for washing his own face, and kept dipping his head in the water! Strange child.
R took a second, and then decided that this was lots of fun - splashing her brothers, Daddy with a camera and a bath. What could be better? The one thing that we did decide at the end was that two babies were not crying while one was in the bathtub. Guess they are going to get combined baths from now on. A did whine a bit, because he said that he thought we were going to have room in the shower again, once we got rid of the baby tub. BUT, I promptly filled that with a basket of baby toys!
So, I had had it - 2 weddings, 3 ear infections by the babies, A has been sick, work has been crazy, since one of the other girls had a heart attack, and I have been picking up some of her work, my list of to-do's is much, much longer then the accomplished list, and I couldn't take it any more. So, this Friday, I took a mental health day. Yes, I had a very long list of things that needed to get done, or at least started this weekend. This afghan was one of them. My plan was to finish it Friday. I am attempting to make an afghan for each of the girls in my family for Christmas presents. This square was from one of my CAL from Ravelry, and it just screamed A's grandma's name. The plain blue yarn is also some that was given to Mom and I when a lady in our church passed on that was close to his grandma. Well, Friday afternoon, I laid the babies down for their afternoon nap. I was so tired, I thought I would take a 30 minute snooze, and then get busy. Instead, I woke up 2 and a half hours later when A got home from work! Guess I helped my mental health, though, since I felt much better! But, that meant that the afghan didn't get finished until today, and the blog didn't get updated until today, either. Three posts in one day - I was way behind! But, I think I am caught up - for now. Below is a close up of the squares.
