First Bath!

Well, a week after getting the okay from the pediatrician to give Luke a real bath, we finally bit the bullet and did it (we'd only been giving him sponge baths before). We were sure that he would hate it, but believe it or not, he LOVED it! When we first lowered him into the water, he screamed, but then he realized it was kind of nice and cozy and he quieted right down. As we bathed him, he just chilled out and enjoyed it, cooing away. It was great. Then when it was time to take him out, I was sure he'd hate that, too, but when we wrapped him up in a cozy towel and rubbed him down with lotion, he acted like he was at the spa getting a massage. He was so calm and content. SUCCESS!!! Here are some post bath pictures. We couldn't take any pictures during his bath, because we needed all four hands just to get the job done and keep his head above water!
