Bath Time

Guess who got their first fully submerged bath last night?
Baby Girl!

Bud was nearby snapping this pictures!
So excuse my disheveled appearance.
I was still recovering from my bout of Mastitis.


Now that her umbilical stump is gone it is safe to get her belly wet with more than just a quick sponge bath!
This was quite an event.
There were moments when she didn't like the bath and others when she seemed totally relaxed.

After her bath we lotioned her up and got her in her jammies.
Since Bitsy is cleared for baths now she'll get them about 2-3 times a week.
Too many baths can dry out baby's skin.
In order to get some order in our life we will start Bitsy's bedtime routine each night after we walk the boys.  
Some nights will start with a bath, but all nights will include her lotion and jammies around 7:30-8pm.
That doesn't mean we expect her to go to sleep for the night or at that point of the night even, but it'll be something that is always the same!
Our baby is growing up so fast!!!

I hope you all had a Blessed Wednesday!

  3. Mmmm....I loved the
    smell of my kiddos
    after a bath, all cozy
    in their pjs! I still love
    to smell my Elizabeth's
    hair when it is wet and
    she asks me to braid
    it for her before bed : )
    Some things never
    change! Enjoy all her
    sweetness, Biz!
