Fun in the Tub

We rarely bathe the quints all at the same time anymore now that they are bigger---it's a bit crowded. We usually split them and do the boys first and then the girls. A few weeks ago, however, Jayson was out of town and I was bathing them on my own, so I decided to throw them all in the tub together. They had a blast, though I think there was more water out of the tub than in it by the time they were through!

They love making faces at themselves in the fixtures


Ryder, Kaydence, Kyndall, Rustin and Kassidy---after their bath, they like to be bundled up in their towels like little mummys.

To cute! I thought of you guys today (I've followed since they were born) while my husband and I debated doing another round of fertility treatments after taking 1.5 years off. Because of male factor infertility we must do IVF with ICSI. We were talking about having two embryos put back, both taking, and one (or both) splitting. I kept telling him I couldn't imagine all the work three would take on top of our high maintenance one. =) I don't know how you do it. Hats off to you!

There's something about a clean toddler fresh out of the bath tub. It just ups their cute factor by a number of ten!

They are adorable. I think I remember a post way back when they were only months old and you showed us all five in the tub. They have certainly grown and thrived.

Great job Mom!

They are just so adorable!!
They looked like they had a blast in the tub!
I can see how hard that would be to keep it dry in there! lol

Love the bubbles concealing things.... Do you bath them every night?

I remember when they would all easily fit in one end of that tub.

Sweet pics! I love that you have "modesty bubbles" on them. My kids love to bathe together. And I admit, it's easier when there's more than one in there. But the floor does get quite wet. Whenever there's more than one in the tub, I clean the bathroom while I'm in there with them. At the end of the bath is a good time for the floor too!

I thought it was cute what Tobi said, "toddler fresh out of the bath tub... ups their cute factor by a number of ten!" SO TRUE!

That tub was like your belly; only a few years ago.... lol

Im still amazed you had quints!

They are just precious! I have a hard time getting two babies bathed and clothed without having a tsunami to deal with in the bathroom, so I can just imagine how tough it must be with 5 kiddo's!

Love the picture of them all clean & wrapped up in their towels.......
and I love how you got "creative" with the bubbles! This blog will be such a wonderful memory for you in the future of your family!

Clean happy mummies and probably a clean floor too and quints who are getting so big.
