Erin had a meeting to run last night, so the kids and I stayed home and hung out. Julia has become a bath-hound of late - wanting to have a bath from the moment she wakes up until the moment she falls asleep it seems. It’s funny, because she was terrified of the bathtub until pretty recently, when I acclimated her to the bath routine over the course of a few days culminating with her getting plopped in with her brother one night. She was pretty scared at first - a little bit of hyper ventilating and a scared look on her face. About 10 seconds later she was splashing though.

Last night she was exploring pouring, and making rubber duckies go for boat rides, while William occupied himself downstairs. By the time Erin was home, the kids were basically ready for bed - she took William up, and he wouldn’t settle. Then she took Julia up, and just before she went to sleep, William came tearing up the stairs and woke her. I got William to calm down some, and Erin had Julia asleep before too long. William was asleep before too long too.

So, other than that, not much new around our place. We have to start getting geared up for winter, which seems odd when it’s as nice out as it is - it’s the middle of September though, so cold days lie ahead of us in the not too distant future.
