the many faces of bathtime!

There's not really much of a point to this post, other than cute pics of bathtime! Presley started out in the "classic" newborn tub. Which was awful! Even with the mesh mat that babies are suppose to lay on, it rubbed a red spot on Presley's back every time. She used it (this way) for only about 6 weeks. After that, we took the mesh liner out and just set her in the plastic part. Presley also didn't appreciate taking a bath this way...the plastic was hard and cold.

Around 4 months (I think!), Presley started taking a bath with me. She LOVED it! She was finally free to move about and splash. Unfortunately, this method was much more time consuming, therefore making it not the ideal way to give a sleepy girl a bath before bed!

Then we finally discovered the ducky tub! A mommy HAD to invent this thing! It's awesome! Nice and soft, plenty of room to splash about, and a beak that quacks...does it get any better? I wish we had found the duck much, much sooner. But Presley has more than made up for lost time. She could sit in it for hours and play...sometimes she comes out with wrinkly hands and feet! Ha ha! She loves it and I think this will be our bath tub of choice from the beginning for baby #2.
