Happy bathing

Claire has not enjoyed her baths ... until today. We started off using a baby tub but that freaked her out, so then I had to have a bath with her (holding her the whole time). Earlier this weekend, we reverted to using the baby tub again but Claire really hated it. Then I read Carolyn's blog (we travelled with Carolyn and Marvin) and saw that she had a lot of success giving Kennedy a bath in the kitchen sink. Eureka! The kitchen sink had totally slipped my mind as a possibility. Today, we tried it out and Claire had a pretty decent time, I think.

Here are some pictures from Claire's bath and lounging around afterwards.

YAY!!!! The kitchen sink, who knew? I went out and bought one of those little tubs to put in the big tub but to be honest, we prefer the kitchen sink for now. It also saves OUR backs from leaning over. Claire looks like a happy girl having her bath!! Horray!

Yeah, we find bending into the big tub to hold Claire in her little tub really difficult. This is way better - she can actually sit up properly in it and everything. Thanks!!!

Looks like fun! Amazing how we have to become so creative. Just noticed Claire and Addison have matching bath towels! Enjoying your pics and stories...
p.s. How is the sleep factor- still struggling here...
