Chase Can't Get Enough Bath Time

Every time Chase hears the water in the bathroom running he stops what he is doing and crawls in high gear to the bathroom. He's always hopeful that whoever is taking the bath or shower will strip him down so he can join in.

If we won't put him into the tub with us he wants to stand on the side holding the edge and play with toys in hopes that maybe he will get a few splashes.

Yesterday Chase had already had a bath and it was Daniel's turn. We weren't going to put him in again but he took it upon himself to get that second bath. He reached over and slipped right into the tub fully clothed.

The look on his face says it all - "Look what I can do! I'm such a big boy."

First Concert

Daniel had his first concert and it was all that we dreamed it would be. Note the little girl crying so hard her daddy pulls her off stage, followed by all the kids staring from stage. Daniel has been a singing fool this last week, but like many kids, got a hint of stage fright under the spot light.

Daniel was very proud of himself, as was I, when we left the school. And the best part? The entire show, songs and cookie reception afterwards, took a total of 30 minutes! Let the school and extracurricular commitments begin.
