Thursday's Question (I'm gonna be gone in the morning, so thought I'd post tonight yet:) )
How often do you bathe your kids?
Daily, every other day, twice a week, once a week, whenever you think, o yeah, time for a bath again?

Ashlyn gets a bath every day... and I'll quickly admit that while I LOVE rocking a freshly bathed baby every night, its mostly for MY sanity :lol: She LOVES baths and it gives me a little break in the evening from the grumpies if I stick her in the tub for 10-20 minutes:)

Every evening before bed.

They used to have a bath together. but they get too rowdy. So charlie takes her bath first and while i'm putting her to bed eli gets his shower. I'm SO thankful that he is able to shower on his own now.

I used to do it everyday... back in Wisconsin... since we moved to Houston they are often getting sick from the humidity, this weather isn't helping them... so I've been doing it every other day... I am getting used to this new routine... we'll see if it changes :)

kwynn (11 yrs) showers every morning, Jake and Grayce (8 and 7 years) every second day, and Z goes in the tub every night as part of his bedtime routine..we call it the 3B's (bath, breast, bed)

my husband gives baths everyday, then I will somtimes do it again the same day. SO they get a bath everyday at least. However we don't always use soap:shock:

When my kids were little, we'd bathe them about every other day. :) Now that they're older, they all shower every day. Nice smelling kiddos and clean hair are o-so-niiiiice!! [thumbsup]

apparently i'm the odd one out. in the summer, pretty much everyday because we are outside alot, so we get dirty and sweaty and gross, but in the winter...? well, when they start to stink too much! We do wash hands and faces before bed every day, but i've been known to let them go a week or even two without a bath. If they get sweaty they get a bath but that doesn't happen so often in winter really! if i do bathe them often in the winter they get terribly dry itchy skin anyway and it's just not worth the hassle (imo).

Blake (age eight) goes to school so definitely every day, Nick pretty much everyday, although I don't sweat it if he misses a day or two... and Sawyer (almost 2) gets 1-2 baths a day, depending on how grumpy he is... he's just so happy when he can splash around! I don't necessarily use soap though.

My teens get the most (on their own obviously, lol) every day or twice a day when they are at drumline/marching band practice. My eczema boy gets the least at every couple of days (unless he has had basketball). And my four yr old falls somewhere in the middle depending on the season and activity level.
