If you have been reading this blog for a while you know about our struggles with bath time. For a very long time Ian thought of bath time as torture and every bath included screaming and crying. Some of that crying was me, I will admit it. Baths were always in and out as fast as possible. They didn't dominate and entire evening.
Not anymore!
Somewhere along the way Ian decided that baths are fun and he would like to stay in the bath forever.
It can still be hard to get him into the tub every once in a while. I think he forgets about the toys that are for bath time only. Once he is playing with his little boats and rubber ducks he has so much fun. Oh, and let's not forget the splashing. The tsunami splashing that needs a towel of it's own to clean up. He loves the splashing, especially when it soaks Mommy.
He will even tilt his head back for hair washing with the help of a Buzz Lightyear sticker on the ceiling. most of the time anyway.
Now my biggest problem with bath time is getting Ian OUT of the tub!
Not a bad problem to have if you ask me. At least my floor is a lot cleaner now thanks to all those waves.

I have the same exact issues with my son! Sunday night was bath night and he was having a fit that he didn't want to take one. I let it slide, but once I get him in the tub he is okay. When he was younger he was a total horror to bathe! Parenting issues always come and go...If we wait long enough they will dissipate and new ones arise!
