Last night I gave Henry a bath for the first time. Now before you freak out and call Children’s Aid that we only bathed him once in 6 weeks, let me clarify. Usually, Chris takes a bath with Henry however with Chris being sick this weekend, it was time for me to step up. I was pretty terrified about the whole ordeal since babies are so tiny and slippery. It actually turned out pretty well. I think Henry is starting to enjoy his bath. He was kind of kicking his legs around in the water and pushing himself around. I agree with everyone who suggested you bathe with your baby. It makes it much easier.
So as mentioned above, Chris caught Henry’s illness so it was a bit of a rollercoaster weekend. Especially Friday night. I was up with either Henry or Chris pretty much the entire night. I’ve never seen Chris sick like this before so it was a tad nerve wracking.
Henry’s now going through a major growth spurt so he’s eating a lot and sleeping a lot. During one of his sleep spells yesterday, we got to watch a movie in its entirety. We saw The Kids Are Alright. I really enjoyed the movie. Great acting all around and the relationships seemed so genuine.
As you can see, Henry’s loosing his hair. He’s got the Jude Law hair thing going on now.
Do babies pee (they must) or poop (ick) in the bath?
I believe they can. Henry has peed before…
