Splish Splash I was taking a bath...



We've been trying to do more of a nightly routine with Jackson. He takes a bath first. He likes his baths a lot better now that we started doing them in the regular tub. Before his cord came off he got sponge baths which he screamed through because I think he got cold. Then we moved him to the infant tub which he also screamed through because the water really only covered his legs. Then I did a few in the kitchen sink, which he seemed to like better. Finally we got this bath sponge and just lay him in the tub and he does a lot better with them. He rarely cries.

Here he is getting dried off and then daddy has the job of getting him into his jammies. He then eats and is off to bed. We are trying to get him down a little earlier so that we have some time together in the evenings. Yesterday was awesome, he just feel right asleep after I layed him down. Tonight... not so much, Justin is in their now trying to get him to sleep. SIGH the joys of parenthood (PATIENCE PATIENCE PATIENCE!)

Awww- how cute. I"m glad you figured out bath time for him. And how exhausting babies are huh? I don't want a baby for a long time- like 1-2 years... yeah that sounds good! :) So much responsibility! hehe. Good job Haylee- i'm sure you're an awesome mommy!
