First Bath in the Bathtub

James had a bath for the first time in his bathtub. It was an experience. Barry did get some pictures that I will post once I get them off the computer. I'm not so sure James liked that any better than the sponge bath. He did a lot of screaming and squirming. The bathtub has a built in thermometer, so we could see when the water was getting to cold for him. Plus we used his turtle thermometer to keep tabs of his side of the water. All in all it went okay.

We are trying to work on the bedtime routine. Usually, we can put him in his jammies and feed him, then he will go off to sleep. Not so much the last two nights. Last night, he stayed up until 1 A.M. after that routine. Tonight, he is in his crib fussing. We are hoping he will fall asleep on his own shortly. We have both been into rock him and as soon as we put him down in the crib he starts to scream. So, we are trying to let him go for a few minutes and see if he calms down. It could be another long night. At least we started this process earlier tonight, so we might get to bed before 1 A.M.

Have a great night. I will post pictures tomorrow.
