21/365 No Love For The (new bath) Tub!

So, we gave Grace her first bath in the new tub. Remember the baby I thought must have been part fish like her father...the baby who loved the bath no matter what time of day or night or how sick and cranky she was? Well, clearly she doesn't like the water as much as I have believed for the past 4.5 months.

This picture had to be cropped big time to make it "internet appropriate," but this is how she sat in the bath the entire time... huddled in the corner, clinging to the side for dear life. The water was plenty warm, and there was plenty of water there. I don't know what gives.





Heather (who has an adorable baby girl, Addison, that is 2 weeks younger than Grace) has also recently converted from the PUJ tub like we were using before to a big girl tub, and she suggested trying it in the kitchen sink where you can let the water run continuously like it did with the PUJ. We will try that in the morning and hope for the best. The next option is to get a shower head that sprays a little lighter so she can be in the shower without water pelting on her skin. Wish us luck as we try to figure out how to get our water-loving baby ready!

...BY THE WAY...check out that chub on the baby! I love her so much!

  2. Thanks!! It was pretty cute in person, too. I was literally having to peel her away from the side so that I could get all of her washed! Silly baby!
