Tonight I decided to try to put Hyrum in the bathtub without his baby bath since he is now pretty steady sitting up independently. I usually put Madison and Hyrum in the bath at the same time. (Kill two birds with one stone, right?) Madison always thinks its funny to pour water on Hyrum's head. She sees me do it to both of them when I rinse them, so why can't she be the mommy for once and wash Hyrum? Usually I let her get away with it, as long as its not in his face. Its all in fun and games, right? But tonight she poured water on top of his head, he lost his balance and CRASH head first in the bath. Well, that ended the fun bath for that night.
I ended up putting his baby tub back in like usual so he could enjoy some of his bath tonight. Hyrum LOVES his bath, it is his relax time. He hates to be lotioned up afterwards, but tonight he soaked it up. I think his bath was too stressful with big sister Madison in there trying to "wash" him. Oh, the joys of two children!

I remember when Tyson fell straight into the bathtub water. Scary! He choked on the water for awhile. I think we laid him on his back with really shallow water until he was better at sitting up. But obviously it's better to just have 1 big bath time. Little Hyrum is going to be tough with big sister around. =)
Yikes! I can't imagine trying to wrestle two slippery kids in the tub!
And I love your Christmas pictures- looks like you had fun!
Tyler gave Carter a bath and even though he is usually great at giving baths, Carter fell head first and completely immersed himself in the water. I freaked out about it, but Carter didn't make a peep, he wasn't even affected. I think we may have a swimmer on our hands.
We do the "kill two birds w/one stone" bathtime too. It's a little crazy, but they love to play in the tub together, so it's fun most of the time.
