She loves the tub...

Juliet loves to try and "grab" the running water as the tub fills up. It always cracks me up because I remember my Dad used to say the same thing about me. She loves the tub and lately discovered how to splash. She seems so surprised every time the water hits her in the face but keeps splashing away.

Other than that, we're getting the boat reupholstered. These are the before pictures. How do these stories always start out? Merril knows a guy. He said he'd give us a good deal on the job if Merril would take all the pieces out and bring them to him. Some of them took more than a smile to extract from the boat. Parts in the bow required me to stick my arm in the big black hole and reach up to get off the nut. Unfortunately, I was orientated in such a way that the rest of my body sunk into the hole and then I was stuck and Merril had to come rescue me. But the pieces should be back in about a week and then we'll need to clean hull and put it back together.

I love that you started the story with "Merril knows a guy . . ." So true!!! Joey loves the tub too. Whenever he escapes and goes up the stairs he walks straight into the bathroom and stands next to the tub expectantly with a look that says, "Put me in the tub, mom!"

Have fun with the boat!

I love that your past-times are all outdoorsy and wild. It must be fun to want to do fun and unusual things and then actually do them.
