Bath Time Changes



It's been a little over 2 weeks since we brought our little doll home from Guatemala and we both think she is adjusting very nicely. She has even made improvements on the areas that she wasn't doing well in. Something she disliked until recently was bath time. She really HATED this and would scream bloody murder whenever it was time for her bath. All she had to do was hear the faucet turn on, and she would begin crying hysterically.

As of last week, she's finally happy in the bathtub. It took some time, but I think she finally realizes that she is safe and that she can have fun in the bath. My mom has taught her to splash "Paula, do Plop Plop" and now she really enjoys getting all of us wet! She loves her rubber duckies (yes she has more than 1!), loves it when we sing to her while in the tub, and loves her blue hippo too!

The first 2 photos I've included are taken when we visited Paula back in February, when she was almost 3 1/2 months old. The next two were taken during our Pick Up trip a few weeks ago and then the next few are at my moms house, wearing her ducky towel that Nanny bought for Paula, still not happy that she had to take a bath, and then the rest are of Paula playing in the tub. There are two photos I love...the one where she's "saying" wash my back (her Grandma is doing that) and the other one where she's letting us know it's time to wash her hair!

Well it's late and I better shut the computer off now and get some sleep. I'll try and post more often to our blog, but please forgive me if i don't have a chance to post as often as I did in the past.

I hope you enjoyed the photos!

Jennie and Paul,

Paula is just the sweetest little girl! How is she doing now? It looks like bathtime has definitely gotten better!
