Bath time fun

Bath time is by far one of the highlights of Lucas' day! He gets excited the minute we walk into the bathroom and turn the water on to get it warm. I usually get him undressed in there to help build up the anticipation, we sing songs, act silly, and all of that fun stuff. Bath time also means play time in front of the mirror. I stand him on the counter and he just giggles and "dances" looking at himself and standing up like a big boy!Once we hit the tub he scrambles for his toys and splashes all over the place. This too is always funny and solicits a laugh :) He even likes it when I rinse his hair and water runs down his face. World, look out when this boy can swim! I usually leave him in there for awhile once we are done just to play some more. Then we say goodbye to the water and listen to it all go bye-bye down the drain. It is by far one of my favorite times of the day too!
These next few pictures were taken last week after we got out of the tub. They are especially posted for Nanny (Todd's grandma) since she got Lucas the duckie robe as a baby shower gift. I have to admit, we registered for it and got it way back when, BUT, this was the first time he wore it!!! :( I think it was the last too -It was a little snug on this big boy at this point!) I will try harder with the next baby, promise Nanny!!! The robe itself was so cute along with the idea of putting him in it- as a new parent to be. But, what it really boils down to as a real parent- is it practical? And considering that, no it isn't. After he has so much fun in the bath, he is ready for lotion, PJ's, cuddle time and his bottle. There is no room in this schedule for the robe unfortunately... But none the less, it is really cute and soft! :)

Check back soon for his big video premiere :)
