Colln's First Bath (AKA Water torture)

Why are you doing this to me?!


Peace at last



Last night we were excited to give Collin his first real bath. We gathered our supplies: cotton balls, wash cloths, big fuzzy hooded alligator towel, Johnson & Johnson baby wash, and of course baby bath tub filled with warm water. Collin seemed somewhat content at first (he didn't initially scream as with all his sponge baths). However, as soon as we lathered up his hair, his lower lip trembled and the shrieks started. It's a bit intimidating to wash a baby with his slippery body, head flopping side to side. But he managed to survive and came out with softer hair and that perfect baby smell.

He's gorgeous wet or dry. Loving the photos!

Uncle Steve and I hope to see him before he gets his driver's license. Steve's working 10 hour days and playing on the weekend right now - but hopefully things will calm down soon and we'll get to oo and ah in person.
