Bub in the tub
/Ian was not originally a fan of his Spa Baby bath tub. I don't know why, he just didn't like it. So, up until the last two weeks or so he would take a bath with me.
I loved that! However, it takes two people to complete the operation, and Carl is not always home when Ian needs a bath. So, I am happy now that he likes his little tub. It is an important part of his winding down process every evening. I am fairly religious about baths for kids at night- especially in the summer. I think we all sleep better when we are not covered in popsicle juice and chlorine. When I was little my grandmother never let me go to bed with dirty feet. Even when we were camping or something- she would always wash my feet with a nice warm cloth before tucking me in. I guess that has stuck with me.
An added benefit of this little tub is that it uses hardly any water! Maybe 1 gallon?
What is better than a nice clean baby? Very little I'd say!
