Andy has always been great at instituting a bedtime routine. While I would always read Van a story before bed, Andy was responsible for adding the more practical elements: going pody, then brushing teeth, then reading (or telling) two stories. It's a great routine.
But as Van has gotten older and a little harder to talk into things, Andy has tweaked the routine just slightly. First, they have a 'pee race', whoever can run upstairs and pee the fastest is the winner. Then they have a 'who can take longer' competition. Andy changes his clothes while Van brushes his teeth and whoever takes the longest wins. I can hear Van upstairs cackling with glee as he wins each of the nightly competitions. He even consoles Andy who feigns disappointment. "It's ok Daddy, you just have to move a little faster."
So great.
