Bath time is a regular fun-fest here for the girls. Well, on most occasions. On this particular day they were singing, playing, splashing...really in rare form. Charis decided that Atalie was going to be her princess building canvas today instead of the tub walls. Strangely, Atalie had no problem with that.


Then Charis had a great idea. Do you see it coming? Notice the unsuspecting victim happily splashing with her foam letters and princesses stuck to her head.


A play by play, just for you... This was literally about 1 second before everything got a little chaotic and, well, reeeally loud.

In case you aren't sure, that cup of water was dumped directly over Atalie's head.

So Atalie started crying (understandably since she sucked in a good noseful of water). You know how everything in the bathroom sounds louder? Oh, yeah. Atalie's crying made Charis cry. And even when Atalie stopped, Charis still cried.

So, the continual crying (sobbing, wailing...it all fits) made Atalie cry harder. Atalie cries with her lips closed. Charis cries so hard she turns a little purple...mouth wide open, with everything she's got.

And then it was head tilted back wailing. I just had to start laughing. The more I laughed, however, the harder Charis cried. The drama struck me as really funny for some odd reason.

So before I rescued them from their pool of misery, I snapped a few more pictures. I mean, who wouldn't want to record this sweet little memory? :)

  1. Too funny. I love how you kept snapping pictures. I have one of William crying during his colicky days and everyone thought I was so cruel for taking it. But I'm so glad I have it. It just completely defines our lives when he was a newborn.
