"Ohhhh...he's so cute in the sink"

Cooper is so big.

He can even sit up in the sink for his bath.

I found a duck for him to play with.

I think he likes baths like this!

.I really wanted Cooper to take a bath with me.

Mom let him stay in long enough for Dad to take a picture and to wash him super fast. Mom says that we need to wait till he gets bigger before he can get in my tub again. Oh well, it was fun for those few minutes. I even showed him my duck while mom washed him...maybe when he's bigger I will let him play with some of my toys.

bath time for Cooper...again

Mom likes to give Cooper a bath after I'm in bed.

I really want to help...but mom says he likes his baths before bed like me...

and his bedtime is later then mine.

"He's so cute!"

"I just love him so much!"

Bath time for Cooper

Mom let me help give Cooper a bath.

I used a toothbrush (that the hospital lady gave us) to clean his hair.

I was very gentle.

It's okay that he was crying.

When I was a baby, I cried when I had a bath.

(me...April 2007)

I tried to talk to him to calm him down...but he wasn't listening.

He was much happier once mom got him dressed and I gave him his pacifier.

When I was a baby I took a bath in my little bath...inside my big bath.

and then I kept getting bigger and bigger and moved from the little bath...

To just the big bath...and I LOVE my bath.

Sometimes I would share my bath with others...

Mom hated my bath...so I tried to keep it clean so she wouldn't hate it so much.

Last summer, I even learned to blow bubbles in my bath.

But mom had had enough of the creaking and popping and snapping sounds the bath made. She had had enough of the broken water controller. She had had enough of all the white tile.

So just over a week ago I took my last bath in MY bath!

And then Fuz came and did this to it...

But he made me a new bath with new tile.

I got to take my first bath in it last night.

I really like it!

I mean REALLY!

I think I passed!

I finished swimming lessons this week!

I learned how to close my mouth and eyes

(when I do, mommy dunks me under the water...I don't always like that)

and I learned how to blow bubbles...

I like to practice my skills in my bath!

Mommy says next year I get to go to swimming all by myself!

"sanks....

Hannah"

for my little scrubby soap!

It's not only good for cleaning my body!

but for cleaning the whole tub!

Rub a dub dub...

I love to take baths...especially when eeee lets me play for as long as I want. 

Last night was one of those nights. 

PLUS...."Grandma Vicki" bought me a froggy puppet for the bath.

It's very cute...

 Thanks Grandma Vicki!!!

Are we taking a bath outside?

The other night we were eating outside and playing and I decided it was a good time to get in my pool...I had all my clothes on.  Eeee and Diddy were laughing at me 'cause I got all wet, so eeee took my shorts off...then my shirt and then my diaper.  I was so excited....I'm naked, must be bath time...so I headed for the door!

Eeee said that we weren't taking a bath right now...and that I could get back in the pool....what?  The only time eeee let's me be naked is at bath time.  I wasn't really sure what to think.  It took me a minute to get comfortable with my nakedness in the yard...but pretty soon it was business as usual.  

Chasing birds....

Standing in the pool...I don't sit in it...

And riding on my car...

this is my new trick, driving backwards!

Eeee did eventually put me in the bath...

but I sure had fun playing outside first!

She's baaaaack!

Welcome home eeee!

Eeee came home today...diddy and I went to see her while she was still helping the girls clean up...she didn't smell like my eeee, so I didn't really want her to hold me. I just stared at her, and when she wouldn't put me down I cried and reached for diddy. Eeee seemed real sad, so I let her hold me. She said that she missed me soooo much and was soooo glad to be home!

I'm so glad to have eeee back home with me and diddy...BUT, diddy and I sure did have a lot of fun. We went on lots of bike rides, played at parks, laughed a lot, and rode in diddy's car while we "ran errands"...why do you all call them that? You don't really run anywhere, but I wish we did...I love to run! Here are some pictures from my time with Diddy...he doesn't remember to take the camera so these are pictures from his phone.

Diddy found some more parks for us to play at...

we found this round thing and when you jump on it, it makes lots of fun sounds...

I really liked it...

After jumping, we ran around this tree...

I can't believe Diddy took this picture, how embarrassing...

We played outside so much that Diddy gave me lots of baths...

He even taught me how to clean the bath.  I showed eeee how I clean when she got home!

And in case you are wondering...those brown things are my monkeys:)
