Bathtime!

We still bathe Emrick in a sink. Since he decided a few months ago that getting the shampoo rinsed out of his hair  (which we do while making sure that no soap or water comes anywhere near his face or eyes) is The Most Horrible Thing in the World, and that he will fight us like cats and dogs to prevent the process, it seems that for now the sink is the safest place to bathe him. We have more control since we can stand up while we do it. Emrick used to not mind the rinsing, which I do with a sprayer. In fact, he LOVED the sprayer. A long time ago, getting his hair rinsed with the sprayer was the only time during the bath that he DIDN’T scream. Ah well. People change.

Emrick loves to kick his legs and splash the water around. Ah, the fun before the storm.

Enjoy this moment fully, Emrick, 'cause the bath is all downhill from here...

These pics were taken in our new laundry room… and by “new” I mean the one Marcus finished nearly ten months ago and which I never photographed for the blog. I’ll get some pics up this week!
