Chance's first bath. Since his cord stump fell off a few days ago he was able to take his first tub/sink bath yesterday and here are pictures from the experience. He seemed to hate the sponge baths we were giving him. I think because we could never get it warm enough and as the water evaperated he got cold and was miserable. Sitting in the warm water though he seemed very happy. The sink was ok but next time I am going to try his little tub because it has better support for him. It was hard to hold him and wash him at the same time. He started to cry once and I just laid the warm wet washcloth over his chest and he was quiet again. In this last one you can see a little of the dirty dishes that are still in the other side of the sink. It is the perfect picture of what life with a baby is like. Yes, there are dirty dishes but the baby takes center stage.
