Grossed out for life

They say to never leave your children alone in the bathtub, not even for an instant. I'm not 100% sure why, but I think this advice is an attempt to prevent some kind of a tragedy. Events such as soap in the eye syndrome, wrinkly toe disease, 3 inches of water on the bathroom flooritis, and there's another one I'm sure I'm forgetting. But anyhoo...I think I've found a new one.

Sayde and Connor were instructed to lather up while I went to the living room to pick up Cranky Baby (she woke me up 3 times last night, therefore she will remain nameless today). After fetching said Baby, I returned to the bathroom to overhear this: "Ok, now YOU sit on MY face."

I'll leave it to your imagination as to who was doing the face sitting and who's idea it was in the first place. Needless to say, "Bath time's OVER. GET OUT. I don't care if you still have shampoo in your hair, you should have thought of that before you gave Mommy an aneurysm."

I'll just keep telling myself that they were checking each other for ticks, unusual moles, hemorrhoids, etc. Perhaps one day, one of them will go to medical school and become a Proctologist and then I'll be so proud. Yeah, so proud. Until then, I'm seriously considering installing seperate bathtubs to go along with the new, 'no face sitting' rule.

Before long it will be, "You can touch mine if you let me touch yours."
