The End of an Era

Happy Aubrey takin a bath. These pictures were takin awhile ago but last night I started filling the bath water for Noah who was as usual overdo for a scrubbin. Before he even had a chance to get in the girls insisted on climbing in.By the time Noah was ready to join them there was simply no room. The kids bath is not large so between two growing girls and way too many toys there was no room. So I filled up the other tub for Noah.
There was a time when we would split up the twins putting one in one tub with Kelsey and one in the other tub with Noah. It was great because it enabled Nate and I to do somthing other than supervise little girls in the tub. But recently Kelsey's grown out of baths to showers and is too self concious for group bathing. Which is fine because she's 10, but it's still kinda sad because they always had so much fun together.

The last time Noah bathed with the girls Aubrey proceeded to push Noah down on his back into the water. She then climbed on top in attempt at some sort of water wrestle move. I happen to be sitting right there and laughed so hard and loud Nate came to see what was going on. It was not lost on me the inappropriateness of this, Noah being a 7 year old boy and all.
It became clear that he too should be done bathing with the girls. Don't worry the twins will still be taking baths together for years to come but appears their older siblings will not be joining them any time soon. Lets face it my kids will have enough to talk about in therapy lets not add to the trama.
Have a great Sunny Weekend everybody!
