Although Lars was gone last week, it seemed like poor parenting to just totally wash my hands of bathing the children. But a logistical problem arose: I could bathe Col while Tor hung out, but Col is not happy either to stay in his crib or to agree to not climb in the toilet or fall down the stairs while I bathe Tor. So it was that the boys got their first bath together. As the photos attest, they had a grand time--Tor even wanted to wash Col--and other than the water on the floor, the whole experience was relatively free of hassle. It may become the new norm around here!
Also, I'm pleased to say that Lars has made it safely home, just in time for the bank holiday weekend (= Monday off), so we're all looking forward to hanging out together. My cousin Marianne, Uncle Richard and Aunt Michelle came up from Southampton this evening for a pub dinner, which was a good way to kick off Lars's homecoming. Hopefully now we will all sleep through the night . . . fingers crossed!
