Our Five Ring Circus: Bathing Beauty

Bathing Beauty

A few days after coming home from the hospital, we gave Lily her first bath. It was a family effort...I did the bathing, Dylan and Lexie assisted, and Grant photographed the milestone.

Lily's reaction?

Oh, baby...

She screamed bloody murder through her entire bath! I have to admit, by the end, I was giggling. She's already dramatic!

She did pause very briefly to muster up her best glare and flash a naughty finger.

Then she began screaming again.

I went as quickly as I possibly could, and as soon as the towel was on, the drama ended. She wore herself out with all the screaming!

I'd love to say that her subsequent baths have gone much better, but it's evident that Lily hates bath time. I sure hope that changes!

  11. Oh my gosh she is beautiful!!! Congrats!!! I LOVE her name too-goes so well with your other childrens' names! Will you be changing your blog name? That was the question everyone had for me when I went from 4 sons to 5 sons. It's a hassle, but was worth it for me. :)
