Shave!

Sometimes I shave at night, and if the kids are taking a bath at the same time, I've got to share the love. Once they see the shaving cream come out they start yelling 'shave!' and I dispense some shaving cream onto one of their hands. The thrill of the shaving cream coming out of the can is only half the fun, they then proceed to lather up just like Dad (only I just lather my face).


I remember my dad giving me on old disposable razor with the blades removed so I could pretend to shave, so one night I did the same for Ari and Emilie; and now they have razors of their own, too. Ari likes to pretend to actually shave more than Emilie; she mainly just likes to lather herself. It keeps them busy and entertained for a long time, and it's the highlight of their bath.

I just wish shaving could be that much fun for me.

Bath night

One thing you can count on when daddy is in charge of bath night is bubbles, and lots of 'em. Ari is not a big fan of the bubbles on the head, but Emilie doesn't seem to mind. In fact, I'm not sure if she even realizes they are there.

Bath nights are fun. The kids love the water. Recently, Emilie learned how to splash, much to Ari's dismay. All the splashing interferes with him doing his job, which consists of him drawing on the grout lines with his bath crayons. I have to admit, though, the kid does good work.
