First Bath in a Tub



After his umbilical chord stump fell off, we were given the all clear to give Nicholas a bath in the tub. Maureen asked if she should wait for me to get home from work and I said, "No, give it to him early, so it's not too cold." It would have been nice to be there, but I'd rather he not get any sicker than he was.


Clearly, he had no clue what he was getting himself into. As you can see, he was not pleased at all, but by the end of it, he seemed to be ok with it. He was just shocked when he was placed in the tub. I think he was just remembering being in the womb and how cozy it was. It's not that much fun in the real world.
If John cooperates and it's not too cool, we'll give Nicholas a bath after dinner tonight. I'll even get video. Then again, maybe we'll do it before dinner, tacos.
