Bath time fun

Here's another one to make you laugh...and I promise every one is fine!
It all started with a normal bath time, all 3 in the tub.  Rylee was using Cassidy as a slip and slide and Sawyer was working on trying to figure out how to drink more water.  I got the twins out and once they are out Cassidy has the green light to turn into a whirling dervish, splashing, rolling and spinning as much as she likes for the few minutes it takes to get both twins dried.  While I was drying Sawyer, Rylee decided to get a closer look at her sister's gymnastics routine and during one of her spins Cassidy kicks Ry right in the mouth and the blood starts flowing.  Poor Cassidy starts crying, feeling so bad (and probably a little worried about being in trouble) and Rylee is screaming and bleeding.  I put naked Sawyer down so she can entertain herself by pulling every towel down and most things out of the drawers while I get the bleeding slowed down and little Ry's mouth rinsed out.  Cass is still crying, asking if she is going to be ok and pointing out that "Mama, there's blood everywhere...ohhh right there there's more blood!"  So very helpful.  We finally get transitioned into the twins room so that I can start getting diapers and PJs on with Cass wrapped up in her bathrobe still feeling pretty bad and just wanting to snuggle.  Rylee's almost dressed, just need to get her feet in her jammies and zip her up when up climbs Sawyer onto the step stool next to the changing table and....pees all over.  Of course she had to wait until we were on carpet!  Down goes Rylee with just her arms in her jammies, the rest dragging behind like a cape, to run through the house.  Thankfully this breaks Cassidy out of her funk and she decides chasing Rylee around will be much more fun than sulking and leaves me to clean up another baby and another mess. But I have to smile and laugh as I listen to Rylee and Cassidy squealing and giggling through the house and at myself as I wonder why I am tyring to hurriedly get Sawyer's diaper on and that I'm actually praying that Mossy does not decide that Rylee's jammies would make a nice tug of war game...Blood, pee and tears...all in a days work and I LOVE my job!
