Bath Time!

These are some things that happen on a daily basis at our house:

Thing 1- Kirsten takes toys away from Natalie and puts them just out of her reach, on a table or the couch. She doesn't want to play with the toys herself. . . she just doesn't want Natalie to have them.
Thing 2- Kirsten shouts "Hey!" and pushes Natalie away when she gets too close to something she's playing with.
Thing 3- Kirsten makes Natalie cry by pushing her/laying on her/taking stuff away from her.
Thing 4- Kirsten asks to take a bath with Baby Natalie.

I've always heard that sibling rivalry starts young, but I had no idea it was this young! Thank goodness for bath time! This is by far Kirsten's favorite thing to do with Natalie, and it's totally adorable.

Ever since Natalie started sitting up by herself, they've been taking baths together. They seriously have a ball together, splashing and laughing up a storm!!!


Kirsten thinks there's just nothing funnier than Natalie's splashing talents. Natalie has the ability to completely soak anyone within a few feet of the bathtub. Kirsten has learned some mad new splash skills from her baby sister.


Baths together. . . such a wonderful thing!
