Elora's First Real Bath

I can't believe I let this go so long without posting! What can I say, though? I've been thoroughly preoccupied with my daughter.
I dated this April 26, since that's when it happened, even though you and I both know that isn't when I posted it. So, just pretend that I'm a good little blogger, and posted it when I should have. Please?

Anyway, of course I'd bathed her before this, but I'd only given her sponge baths. At first, it was because her little cord stump hadn't fallen off, and then I wanted to make sure that her belly button was all healed. And then...well, and then I was just anxious about having her sitting in water and I decided that Brandon needed to be present for her first bath. I know, I know...totally over cautious. But it was definitely worth it, because now I have these awesome pics of my baby's first bath, which she didn't like at all. She showed her displeasure by not only crying the whole time, but also by pooping in the water, which of course made it necessary to start all over. Subsequent baths, though, have gone just fine--no crying, and no poop.
