What Is It With Kids And Bathing?

My son absolutely hates taking a bath. He hates it so much that sometimes he literally pretended to take a shower, while in actuality he was sitting in the bathroom with the door locked and the shower running. He always gets caught though, because his armits are usually less than pleasant smelling when he hasn’t bathed. (I sometimes wonder if he can actually smell himself?) Anyway, the funny thing is he just came up to me and asked if he could take a shower. HUH? I was shocked, but of course I said yes. I think he wanted to take a shower because we are in a hotel room and he thinks it’s neat.

Anyways, do any of you have problems with your kids not wanting to take a bath? It’s frustrating!

So We Evacuated

Well for anyone who was concerned or cares, we made it to a safer location. It took alot of driving, but it was definitely less than 2 years ago. We left early, and we beat the herd of last minute evacuees. You would think they’d have learned from the last big evacuation, but no. Anyway, it wasn’t too bad of a drive, my parents drove behind me. Now Eric and I are all checked into our cute little hotel room and we’re both so exhausted we’re about to pass out. I like this room, I got a really good deal off of it from hotels.com. It even has a little kitchen! What I like most about the kitchen is the stove is a counter top stove, like it’s built right into the counter. The counter itself is black marble. It’s really nice looking. Good thing, too, because I was kind of worried about what kind of place it would be considering the awesome deal I got on it.

Anyway, Hurricane Ike is currently a category 2 hurricane I believe, and from what they say it’s going to get even stronger. I’m kind of worried about my home, but I’m thankful that we are out of harm’s way and that we are together. I believe that’s more important than anything.
