The boys loved the inflatable tub and Ewan used it longer than Isaac did because once he was sturdy enough in the tub to not fall over we put the boys in the tub together. Like others, husband is the main bath giver. Now that we have 3, I bathe the baby and he is still responsible for bathing the older two. I don't know if we will bathe all three together when Graham is old enough but I imagine we will use the inflatable tub for a while after he grows out of his folding infant one.

Mckenna is right that in between stage goes by quick, so don't stress to much about it. By the time you do the research and buy the darn thing she's already out of it. Jayden and Xavier take a bath together and love it. I just give Jayden two small cups to play with and that usually keeps his attention long enough to get the job done. Mckenna, not sure about the length of time for the opposite sex to bathe with each other. Of course each family is different, seeing as we are all boys here (well except for me) we don't have that problem. But my first thought was when the oldest becomes around 4 or 5.

With Darah, I used to take baths with her on occasion and really liked that time. The only drawback is the water couldn't be too warm, but it was special. If we're in a hurry, the kids usually join me for a shower now that they're bigger and they both love it and it's fast! The in between stage where they are too big for the newborn tub and too small to sit unsupported in the tub goes by fast...so while it's a hard stage to get through, it'll be done before you know it! I love that you made a goal to bathe her two times a week...you're not alone. Now that Darah's in school, they both get baths every night because Darah gets so messy at school and it's such a germy place, but before she started preschool they were bathed about 2-3 times a week! I have a question...how long is it appropriate for my kids who are opposite sex to bathe with each other? Bath time has for the most part been my husband’s time with the kids.
