A Unique Bath Time

Yesterday I was giving my children a bath, it sounds simple and uneventful right?! Well not so, let me explain:
Parker learned that if you squat and then push backwards you slide across the tub. He only has half a tub since I usually bathe the children together. The first and second time was a blast but the third time he hit the back of the tub harder than either of us would have wanted and I think he hit his tailbone. Well, he actually recovered pretty quickly, not wanting to have to get out of the tub. But before he felt completely better he leaned over pointed his tush in my direction and asked "Mom, kiss." I couldn't bring myself to do it so he got a kiss blown in that direction. ( Oh, the power of a Mommy kiss)
Next I was sitting next to the tub playing back and forth between Kora and Parker. I had my attention on Kora because she was in distress and I couldn't figure out what was wrong, while Parker was minding his own business with the water cup I use to rinse the kids off. Then I hear Parker say, "ball drop." I was confused because there isn't a water toy, that is in any way, shaped like a ball in the bathtub. I look at Parker trying to pull a brown "ball" he had dropped in out of the cup.

Then It All Becomes Clear.
Kora felt better and Parker "found" the cause. That's all the detail I can give without dry heaving onto the computer. Needless to say we vacated the tub pretty quickly, bleach cleaned the toys and tub and had to have another bath.
Oh the joys of Bath Time.
