Bathing Beauties



We gave the baby girls their first bath the other day. Gabriella was on hand to add her assistance and give suggestions. They have an adorable bath seat that makes it possible to bathe them in the bathtub. The girls both had a pretty pleasant experience with the exception of getting their hair washed. Neither liked the water being poured over their heads but they didn't cry, just cringe and try to move out of the spray of the washcloth. The baths were ridiculously quick in order to prevent the girls from getting cold. After toweling them off their hair was dried into a very spiky hairstyle. Next time I will get a picture of the hair. Please ignore the exhausted mother holding the babies in the above pictures, she hasn't had much sleep but on the upside she has taken a daily shower. There will be lots more baths in the coming weeks, we've already had a second one where Gabriella was the assistant, she is an excellent towel girl and baby distractor. I'm thinking of hiring her on as a permanent part of bath time.
