FMK - Bath Time!

So, I sincerely hope that bath time is more fun with you girls than it is with our dogs. They hate it. I don't think I have mentioned yet that we have two dogs (and two cats and a fish). Having two little girls seems natural I suppose. ANYWAY, the dogs names are Brody and Ace. Brody is a basset hound/shar-pei mix and is about the coolest looking dog I have ever seen. We got him after mom and I went to see a movie, I can't remember which one, and I said, "Why don't we have a dog yet?" Your mother, being the totally awesome lady she is, immediately started scouring the net and local papers to find us a dog. Luckily, we found Brody. He was free to a good home from a nice couple in Ocala. They were moving to Tennessee and could not take him. They had a little girl, around four I think, that he never was rough with. I hope he is the same with you. All he wants is to be loved. Ace on the other hand is a flat coated retriever mix. He is still a puppy and a licker to the tenth degree. He cannot not lick. We got him from another couple that was moving. They had hit tough financial times and needed to get rid of their litter of puppies. We went to their home and played with all the puppies they had. We decided on Ace because he was the only one that relaxed while we were there. He has since decided that he does not like to relax. He is very sweet though. I am not sure how he is around children but I hope he does well. ANYWAY, short story long, they hate bath time. A lot! And I am never rough with them. I use warm water and gentle washing motions and everything. I hope the two of you handle it better. I mean, you get bath toys and baby shampoo, which is quite awesome I might add. And you get special little tubs and towels and swaddling cloths. And we are probably going to get a ladybug or turtle shower caddy to hold your stuff so at least bath time will be with a friend. Either way, I am excited. That may sound weird but, I know that some of my families favorite moments are from bath times. There is just something inherently silly and fun about it. I hope it stays that way.
