We generally give the triplets baths twice a week on Wednesday and Sunday. It is usually a mixed experience.....the boys don't mind it, but Ryleigh tends to cry loudly. The. entire. time.
Sunday was a challenging day, so when bath time arrived, we got the bright idea to mix it up and take a family soak in the master bath. Like many things around here, it was equal parts entertaining and stressful.
Austin always enjoys the rare treat of bathing in mom and dad's bath. He excitedly was first in, and naturally, within seconds, proceeded to unleash what appeared to be half a day of pent up urine upon our freshly drawn tub. Eventually we squeezed 12 arms, 12 legs, 60 fingers and 60 toes into the bath (sorry, no pics). Surprisingly, keeping three squirming babies above water, while a two year old practices his back stroke proved to be manageable. The pleasant surprise was that Ryleigh did not cry and actually enjoyed her family bath. I'm sure we will attempt it again some time soon.
