Olivia's first bath!

The time finally came - with her umbilical cord healed, she was ready to graduate from casual sponge bath to full on water submersion.  You would think this would be a nice experience for a newborn, seeing as they spent the first 10 months of their lives in water - but somehow, once they leave that life behind they lose all memory of it.... a bath does not, apparently, equal the amniotic sack : )  Though I will say that O was quite content for most of the bath - it's mainly when we have to lift her out of the dirty water to rinse her in clean water that she protests.  I guess I can appreciate that -- I wouldn't be so keen on someone pulling me out of the shower before I was rinsed off either!


Rubba dub dub!


All clean and toasty in my towel!
