Bath TIme!

So, from the moment we found out we were having a boy I've been a little apprehensive. I don't know much about boys... aside from my brother, my husband, and my father I have relatively little experience with boys. And the three men in my life are all very different relationships. Since my brother is two years younger than me I didn't change his diapers or anything, so having to change my little boy and take care of his little boyhood has been a new experience.

Joseph had his first bath today. We weren't going to give him a bath in the tub until his circumcision had healed completely... but circumstances called for an adjustment in those plans. It had been a couple days since Joseph's last dirty diaper. He were getting a little worried that it'd been that long. Well, this afternoon remedied that concern... it took two diapers, half a container of wipes and a bath to clean up. And he tinkled all over me... twice! I won't even start on the smell! Yuck! However, sadly, the only camera I had was on my phone so those are the only pictures I got of his first bath. He seemed to really like it though... which is good, 'cause I see many more baths in his future.

He's so precious! Congrats to you and AJ! Just so you know - our little Tanner would go 10 days without pooping. Very concerned, we called the doc and he told us it's very normal for breast fed babies to go that long. Just an FYI so you don't have to freak out like we did! :)

LOL. You'll soon realize that it's probably easier to put them in the bath than go through all the wipes and diapers on those occasions. Too funny!! He's growing so fast.
