The umbilical cord. The God created source of life for a baby for 9 months. And then a cute little baby is born. And part of that little cord stays around for a while. Until today - Eva's little stub finally fell off and we got to celebrate by giving her a bath! We were so excited to give her a bath in her little baby tub. She loved it!
Her Nana gave her the "Whale of a Tub" and it was just right for a newborn. She stayed in place and it was easy to suds her up. Plus it is super cute, which we all know is what matters when shopping for a bath tub. I'm a little jealous of how cute her tub is. My bath tub is just plain old white with a faucet.
After tub time we wrapped her in a ducky towel. She was less happy about this part and screamed a bit. Once she was warm and snuggled she settled down a bit.
Eva was so fresh and clean after her bath so we showered her with lots of kisses! And Ryan put the duck head over her head. What a jokester.
Then we took our clean baby on her first trip to Super Target! I will admit that I am that crazy mom that doesn't want her to get exposed to any germs for the first month or so. However, I am also the mom that realized that we really needed to pick up a few things from Target and while I didn't want her to get germs, I also am not ready to leave her. So I wrapped her in a blanket and hopefully that shielded her. I'm pretty sure that Eva loved Super Target. She chose to express this love by sleeping through the whole experience. 
We have the same bathtub—it's soooo cute! I'm glad Eva loves her bath time…James doesn't love it so much just yet. However, James *DOES* love SuperTarget just as much as Eva, lol—both times we've gone, he slept the entire time!!
ReplyDeleteWow she did seem to love that bath! Like with dogs - babies either like the washing, or the drying - nobody likes both, LOL.
