Ah, a day at the Spa!

After waiting patiently inside for me to set up the Schutte Spa, Megan brought all of her friends outside and sat down to wait for their appointments. Some were scheduled for minor surgeries (sawing on a hat or closing a seam) but all of the furry friends were waiting for baths!

Megan's stuffed animals were starting to look really dirty, and others needed to have things repaired. Since it was nice outside and I didn't want to do dishes, I decided to make it a fun activity for Megan.

Poor turtle had a hole in his head, so before any scrubbing was going to happen, I needed to fix his head.

Megan wanted to help clean her friends so she took the soapy wash cloth and started to scrub Monkey. She actually was doing really well at making sure everything was washed. (you'll notice that we have very original names for Megan's friends, the turtle is "Turtle" the monkey is "Monkey" etc.)

After mastering the wash cloth Megan took the brush away from me and wanted to clean Mickey next. I had to take over though because Mickey was filthy!

Now she is cleaning "Paws" but notice her wet hair and clothes, she took a break from cleaning her friends and decided to brush her hair with the soapy water. But I guess I should have expected that considering I was using her baby hair brush to scrub her animals (It was the only soft brush I could find) Once again, thanks to Paws' white Tiger jersey, I had to finish scrubbing the dirty off of him.

On to the relaxing wrap! Megan just wanted to lay in the grass.

Megan didn't want to pass up a day at the Schutte Spa, so she wanted to start with a pedicure (or splash in the water)

The classic "Cheese" face. Her manicure was next. I probably should have changed the water before she had her turn, but opps, I didn't. Oh well, but from the look of the dirty water that gives you a since of how dirty her friends were!

They wanted to relax a little more on the swing. AKA Megan wanted to put her friends on the swing.

The last appointment at the Schutte Spa was in the sauna. For the record, Megan did not visit the sauna.

So you might think I'm a odd mom for setting up a spa just to clean Megan's friends when throwing them in the washing machine would have been easier. but Megan loved playing at the spa, so the extra effort was worth it. But I make no promises for a repeat spa visit.
