Garrett's first bath

This little baby can scream. He doesn't usually but if you want to check his lungs strip him down and throw him in the bath.


Okay, don't throw him in, gently place him in the bath. And make sure the water isn't too hot. What would be relaxing for you is way too hot for that little guy. Momma, Dad, and Grandma Bostwick fought the good fight and got the little guy clean, though Grandma Bostwick suffered the worst casualties.


The most concern came from the dog. Bobby was totally on edge during the entire bath. He paced, whined, worried, fretted, tried to climb up onto the counter and was generally afraid that we were performing some sort of child sacrifice. Since then, this little dog has become very protective of his little boy. He keeps a careful watch and is ready at any moment to protect him from any bath-givers. I guess the dog and the baby can relate.











But in the end he is so darn cute we just kiss him so much that he probably needs another bath.


This kid is just so perfect!

Is that a strategically placed washcloth in the first shot?

Thanks for actually posting something :). Just kidding. There is no pressure from me to post even though I do appreciate it when you do.

Beautiful pics and commentary. You are both good writers.I enjoyed it. Glad Bobby is protective. Buddy was that way when Joy came with Tony. He was worried we were not taking care of the baby. Bobby and Garrett will grow up to be great buddies. :-)
love,
