Charlotte’s First Bath

Wrapped up in a blanket
Cozy, safe and sound
You pick me up and smile
Then you strip me down.

You put me in water
And expect me not to scream
Well, I'll just tell you frankly,
Only in your dreams.

Don't wash behind my ears
And leave my toes alone
Just because I'm crying,
Try not to use that tone.

Please give me back my blanket.
Wrap me up so tight.
With lots of hugs and kisses,
I'll forgive you...I just might.

As most babies, Charlotte was not to fond of her first bath.  Since she is so much smaller than Grant was this was quite a production…both Matt and I felt that we needed to be holding onto her so that she didn’t slip off the sponge, and boy was she slippery.  Hopefully we will get better at this once she gets bigger.
