Well, tonight was the first night that I was in charge of giving Emily her bath. All said, I do not think that it went too badly for my second time to ever be involved in giving the baby a bath. She was good throughout the whole thing and even seemed to be fairly happy through most of it. After I picked her up and gave her to Ashley to dry, Ashley let the F-Word slip. You know, the most horrible of words that you can say around a new baby. That is right, she said fuss! Of course, it bothered Emily so much that she decided to do just that. She fussed. And fussed. And fussed. Finally, we got her dry and clothed and warm and she seemed to calm down. Ashley is rocking her before bed right now.
Emily has had a big day. She went to a work cookout with Ashley and I. She got to meet most of my coworkers, their spouses, and kids. She even got toted around by some of them. After all that excitement, we have had a bit of a hard time getting her to calm down tonight, but she is just so tired that I think she will sleep for a while, even though Mommy said the F-Word

So glad to hear that you guys had a family outing today.:-).
I know being of charge of that first bathtime can be a real experience. You used to hate getting a bath and Jake did too until he was sitting up on his own.
Glad to hear that Emily doesn’t mind her bath too much! Jake hated bathtime so much that it was a 2 man job until he could sit up on his own! I’m sure she was a big hit at the picnic!
