What happens when you yell "BATHTIME"

Don't your kids leave their underwear on the living room floor, too?

I like giving baths to little newborn babies that are so soft and sweet. Then they grow into bigger, messier, splashier kids. I really don't like bathtime. Even though it is a regular routine usually with me saying 50 times "sit down" and "keep the water in the tub" it always ends up with me wet and someone screaming about soap in their eyes.

The first house we owned had the ugliest bathroom ever. I used to think who ever put it in bought whatever was on sale at the hardware store every week. Nothing matched. It was an awful place to try and take a bath to relax.

We have lived in many houses since then and I think this one has my favorite bathrooms. The man we bought it from was redoing it for his parents who in the end decided not to move. There are many little details I think he wouldn't have bothered with had he known this crazy bunch was moving in. This bathtub is the older kids', I really should have turned the camera around so you could see the oodles of teenage stuff that, you know, they need to be beautiful.

Maybe I will find some courage and share the rooms in our house. I love reading blogs that do this.
