The fun part of grandkids is the bath... Oh these two cracked me up. I was in socks and my pj's so I was trying to stay out of the fray. Bennett was attached to his water spout from the second he saw it at the store. So it went into the bath. I put a few towels down prior to the getting into part. I added a towel during the bath. When done... and toys out.... I needed another towel to wipe the green water spout dry.
Bennett went to bed with it... and cried great big tears when we got ready to go home and was told he needed to leave it here to water grandma's flowers. So... as a good grandma I went into the house and got it for him. I'm sure his parents didn't want it at home, but wasn't going to play the bad guy... That is what parents are for. hehehe
I had to crop almost all the pictures due to Bennett standing up, but those also show his joy... Ady got as good as she gave. The two of them had a really great time. The floor, not so good, but the carpet dries if you put enough towels down.
Getting the part of the carpets... sigh... I hate carpet in the bathroom especially infront of the comode... Can you believe it? Oh it's a good thing we are renting or else we would be on wood floor until enough money to replace it with tile or linolium...
Oh well... kids don't think of that... when it's not done intentionally (Matt) it's workable. These two never once just poured water over the side. I'm sure each drop was an accident especially if you ask Adylin... Most of the things she does are accidents.
I didn't get pictures of them doing the sun catchers... I needed all my faculties just to keep the 'paint' on the tablecloth or the sun catcher. They turned out very cute and I was so lucky to be sending them home for the family to enjoy.
I love them being off track. We get to have them on sleepover's during the week, as well as on weekends. I'm thinking our next sleepover will be Tanner before he goes back to school.
Life as Grandma is really truely the best thing in the whole world. They wear me to a frazzle and I get grumpy cuz I get tired, but I wouldn't trade a moment for anything. This time passes so quickly as I have learned with a 16 yr old granddaughter... SIGH... So, it's enjoy this while in the moment.
