After a week of being alive I decided it was time to give Kayden her first bath. She isn’t the most graceful of eaters and she has had her share of milk mustaches and needed an overall tune up. The bath went well. All I knew was that I wasn’t supposed to submerge her in the water because her belly button stump hadn’t fallen off yet. I wasn’t sure however how to go about sponge bathing her. I got creative and we made it happen! I bathed her, she smelled great, and I wrapped her in a nice comfy towel. This is where my I made my first mistake as mom. I put Kayden on the bed snuggled up in her towel as I got her outfit and diaper ready. I guess this took longer than I thought because after I put her diaper on I noticed that her hands and lips were bluish. Of course Scotty was out surfing so I was on my own! Rather than start crying because I froze my child, I immediately put on her pants, long sleeve shirt, knit hat, and socks to reheat my child. She never even cried to tell me she was cold!! After a few minutes sitting in the sun light she was back to normal! Phew! Hopefully next time goes a little smoother…
