As I type this, I have been chased out of the bathroom by William, who is pushing 3.5years and has learnt to take bath on his own. Yes, for 3 consecutive days now he has been putting on the bathing soap, washing himself and rinsing off by himself. I basically just shampoo his hair and wash his bottom and hard-to-reach-areas before he says, "Mummy can you go out?"
When he's done, this boy will turn off the water by himself, wears his own pants (depends on mood and also after a lot of running around bottomless) and if he is feeling vain, he'd scoop his hair up into the "mohawk" hairstyle.
In between, my job is to wait outside the bathroom for him, dry him up and wear his shirt.
Just a passing phase I presume... before he wants mummy to bath him again - just like Vic. : )

My 3YO girl does that too. But I will tell her that mummy needs to bathe her clean clean first. Then I give her 5 mins to shower again and to play with the toy guns inside the shower area.
Nowadays kids want to do things on their own at an early age. With a blink of an eye, your William will grow into a fine young lad. You are so wise to pen down all these precious moments:D
soon enough you'll be missing the baby years....!
Aidan is like that too. He started to take his shower on his own at about the same age too and also change into a fresh set of clothes all by himself. As for Ashley though - i still need to help her cause of her long, thick hair...plus i think she just likes to manja :P
