Late Afternoon Fun

"No! Don't get me wet! Don't take my picture! Aaaah!"

I'm thinking some haircuts are in order...

From "The Boy Who HATES Water" to "I Can Rinse Myself!" - What a difference six months makes.

"Hey look - I can squirt like my brothers!" (hee hee hee...)

It was shaping up to be a long afternoon. I thought of taking them outside to play in the sprinkler but that really is a two person project. Since playing in the sprinkler/mud always requires a bath afterward I decided to skip the finding suits-putting on sunscreen-herding cats part and go straight to the bath.

Ted was a total pain, so he was the last in and the first out. Just as I was finishing getting him dressed, Cass decided she was done too and voluntarily got out (usually we have to drag her out of water.) Of course, she was covered in soapsuds, but oh well. Mr. Water Lover (who are you and what have you done with my kid?!) wasn't eager to get out, but did so without complaining. Such a change, I can hardly believe it.

Now they're all in their jammies with the promise of pizza and a movie. Well, except for Cassie.

She's asleep on the couch.
