I Suck At Giving Baths

Friday was another milestone for Karen and I. On Friday, Karen and I gave our daughter (Briana) her first bath. Now I suck at giving baths. Since Briana came home over a week ago, neither Karen nor I could have given her a bath because her umbilical cord had not completely fallen off. (And for anyone curious, it appears that Briana will have an "innie", not an "outie".)

My friend (Andrea) was generous enough to provide Briana with a bath tub, complete with soaps. (Thank you again Andrea!) So whenever Briana takes a bath now, she'll have Andrea to thank too. Although after her first bathing experience, Briana may not want to thank Andrea. Just kidding.

Truth be told, the bathing experience was not that bad despite the look of sheer terror on Briana's face as she was lying on a towel of our bathroom floor. Her eyes were big and wide, as though she knew what we were planning to do to her. Interestingly enough, Karen was probably more terrified of the bath than Briana.

For some reason, Karen had the notion in her head that Briana would endlessly cry during bath time. (And apparently that thought distressed Karen so.) It turns out, Briana had no problems at all with the bath. Briana was very good sitting in the tub. It was getting out of the tub that she seemed to have a problem with because it probably felt very chilly and cold to her while we were drying her off.

And in case anyone is curious, we dried her off in a Winnie the Pooh hooded towel... which actually belonged to her big brother (Braden). Sure, it was just a hooded towel, but for me, it was nice to have Braden symbolically taking care of Briana by drying her off.

All in all, Briana's first bath went very well.
