Bath time

When Conor first experienced bath time, he screamed the most blood-curdling scream the entire time.  He clearly was not a fan of bathing.  Left to his own devices, he certainly would have preferred to stay coated in spit up, sweat, and all other glorious fluids that exit his body rather than go through the horrors of a bath.  

Well, our little boy is growing up!  He is slowly but surely learning to enjoy bath time (which makes bath time much more enjoyable for Mommy and Daddy as well!).  Part of the key to making bath time more enjoyable was to warm up the water and to keep him draped in warm washcloths, so that he stays warm.  He's clearly not a fan of being cold!  As long as we follow those protocol, we can now even "play" in the bath rather than rushing to get him in and out as quickly as possible.  The tears only flow when it comes to washing his face, and those are more whimpering cries than screams that would make the neighbors think we're conducting torture.  Hopefully before long, bath time will be so enjoyable that we'll be able to make it a nightly bedtime routine.
