Bath Time!

So, when both of your kids love water, bathtime can take up a pretty good chunk of your day. Jayda could spend an hour or more in the tub if I would let her (she is old enough now I dont feel like I have to stay "within arm's reach" when she is in the tub) and Tai seems to enjoy the water as well, so I have been spending more time tub-side letting him play in the tub. Today I decided to try to put my little fish/children in the tub together to see how they do. Of course, they had a blast!

New 'Do

We have had various family and friends tell us that Tai's hair looks a bit like a mohawk. It's just the way it is naturally growing in--thick and darker in the middle, and lighter and thinner on the sides. So one day I decided to make it official--a spikey mohawk. Cute, huh? Lehi even offered to shave the sides all the way off, but I decided that would be going a little too far. You lucked out for now, Tai.

We went swimming on the 4th of July instead of doing fireworks (we already saw a fireworks show the weekend before for Taylorsville Dayz. Tai was completely mesmerized by the fireworks, and Jayda spent the whole time with her hands over her ears and her eyes shut saying "they are too loud, I don't want to watch them"--which surprised me because they have never bothered her at all in the past. But we might try it again for Pioneer Day on the 24.) This was Tai's first swimming pool experience, and though he likes water and baths, I dont know if he quite knew what to think about this giant tub of cold water. Well, the temperature wasn't so bad, but poor Tai was shivering after about 5 minutes of pool fun.
