oh, my boy

yesterday was bath day and, as usual, jack protested. he always protests and screams when we tell him it's time for a bath, but the minute he steps foot into the bathroom, he's all smiles and can't wait to get in. i put him in, dumped out the bath toys and left the room, as i normally do. then i heard this "mommy, guy got me all wet." i turn around to see audrey dripping in water and then i heard the splashing. i thought jack was just doing his normal bath thing, playing with mario and luigi in the tub. boy was i wrong. jack had flooded the bathroom. there was so much water on the floor, it had started to run out of the bathroom. everything was wet- the toilet, the bathmats, the trashcan, the toiletpaper basket- i didn't know where to start cleaning. while i was gathering paper towels, i heard audrey tell jack, "guy, that not nice. the bathroom all wet and slippery! it too dangerous for me. water stay in the tub, guy!" we tell the kids that the water needs to stay inside the tub so that floor doesnt' get slippery when they come out. audrey had to learn that the hard way when she slipped a couple of times after splashing around. jack just sat int he tub with this grin on his face:) it took me an hour to clean up all the water and blowdry the basket...not fun when i'm hugely pregnant!
