Welcome to my second ever attempt at participating in Way back when-sday!
Today's WBW focuses on bath time. Most people probably associate bathing with privacy, but apparently efficiency trumped privacy in my family's house, which is why most of our bath times looked a little something like this:
Twins + Barbies
Twins
Elizabeth + Andrew + Twins
Take 2
Somehow Elizabeth got out of this photo opp...
Ok so apparently she just outgrew the "fun" entirely?
I appreciate that I'm sporting a bow AND a necklace at this particular bath time. So fancy.
Apparently Allison wasn't having nearly as much fun as I was?
I can't imagine why... looks like a blast to me!
A few thoughts:
1. The house was old which is why the bath tub looks dingy. Although when you are bathing in not just your own filth but also the filth of 1-3 other people, I'm not really sure if that is really cause for concern anyway.
2. I like how Barbie decided group bath time was just more than she could bear and therefore apparently decided to take her own life in the last pic.
3. In case any of you ever wondered why I'm not very good at doing (any) things by myself, these pictures might explain why.
Remember to head on over to Allison's blog to check out the rest of the WBW fun!

Cute post! My sis and I totally took baths together growing up. . . barbies and all. Ha! I think it is a mandatory sister thing. :)
HAAAA!!! I particularly love the hairbows and necklace night. It's like "we cannot possibly dress down for ANYTHING!"...I bet that was a result of an awesome power struggle with the parents! Or else they had just already given up hope of washing your hair that night. Anyway, this is a great topic; glad your parents had the foresight to take so many pics!
I don't know if I have seen all of these before! Are they Phyllis pics? Also, I feel like we are a little too old to be photographed taking baths together in some of these pictures... guess the photographer didn't think so!
Y'all are so cute!! Your barbie comment made me laugh! I don't know if I ever took a bath with a hair bow, but my mum always made me wear one when I went swimming (to match my swimsuit of course) and told me the pool was washing it.
Apparently I think I'm British...mOm, not mUm. :)
My sisters and I used to take baths together, too! And there is some pictorial documentation. I can tell you that we were never as FANCY as you two! No bows or necklaces for us (that one is my fave and had me laughing! so funny and cute!)!
You look just like Elizabeth in the last picture! These look a lot like Wheeler kid photo shoots!
