Love affair with the bath tub

3 years ago when someone would ask me what I want for my birthday, I would have responded with the latest fashion accessory, CD, or game...now all I can think of when asked this question is, an hour or two, to myself, in the bathtub.
 I'm not talking to wash my hair or shave my legs, screw that. Bath time is meant for piling my hair on top of my head in the least sexy fashion ever, getting a large bowl full of some type of snack food, preferably popcorn and peanut M&Ms, with a large glass of some delicious cold drink, a fat intensely intriguing book to read, and last but not least, some ear plugs!
I am lucky enough to have a hubby-to-be who understands my love of the bath tub, he recently surprised me with some new Lavender Epsom salts, to me this is better than pearl earrings. When we were looking at apartments, the biggest selling point was if it had a bath tub or not, when I walked into the bathroom of our apartment for the first time I almost cried, going from a house shared by 6 with no bathtub, to a deep soaker tub with a slanted back,in our own apartment... priceless!
While pregnant I pulled off marathon style bathing, I would soak for HOURS multiple times a day, I even started bringing our portable DVD player in and watching my favorite shows. Bliss.
As of late, because I simply cannot seem to sleep at night, I have started taking baths in the middle of the night, with as much random smelly goodness as I can muster up.... I'm pretty sure this was the best idea I have ever had, considering once Hailey comes home I know my bath-time privileges will be split once again, I now have a secret rendezvous time with the bath tub <3

Yes this was a pretty random posting, I just hope I am not the only one who appreciates the magic of a bathtub LOL

As my daughter would say before bath-time  HAPPY BUBBLES =)
