Feb. 21- Bathtime!Madeline out grew her bath bear sponge a long time ago. She didn't want to lay in a bath, she wanted to splash wildly in the water. So after a few traumatic baths (for Mom not Maddy) we found this wonderful little invention called a bath seat. It suction cups to the bottom of the tub and allows Madeline to feel secure and safe in the water without mom and dad having to hold her out of the water. (Lets just say that Maddy's idea of bath time included diving face first into the tube over and over and over and over...)
Of course we never leave her side, and are never out of arms reach, but at least now she isn't face planting into the water and freaking both her parents out. She can calmly reach for the toys in front of her without getting a face full of bath water! Let the parade of baby photos begin!

maureen...as you know we have the longest tub in the world. we had a bath ring for our kids when they were little and it was useful for me as well. i'd suction it on to the tub wall under the faucet and then i could lay in the tub, prop my feet against the ring and not go under the water. i stick with showers now! good to hear that bathtime has become less stressful for all involved. b.
You know she wants to be a swimmer! We're glad that bath time is a more positive experience all the way around these days.
Once again you've made my day!
