Nine month D/B comparison

Time for another baby/baby daddy comparison! Dan is still winning in the hair category, but they seem to enjoy baths equally.

Brandt at 9.5 months

Dan at 9 months

Day 39: Happy bath

See, I like my bath!

Just wanted to offer proof that the mouse usually likes baths. All cooing, no crying today. Dan has requested no full-frontal baby nudity so here's hoping a blurred-out groin is OK by him...

Day 33: Bad bath

This is not my idea of fun!

Looks like I jinxed myself with all that talk about baths yesterday. But I wanted pictures of a wet baby today so here they are, for better or worse. It wasn't really the bath that upset him...he was fussy right before the bath and I should have known better than to douse him. I consider today a win: he's taught me a valuable lesson about mixing bad moods and baths.

I am so outta here!

Brandt's tear ducts started working this week, right on schedule, but that means that now when he cries his eyes get wet and it's that much more heart-wrenching.

Day 24: Bathing beauty

Rub-a-dub-dub

I suspected Brandt wouldn't enjoy a real bath so I've been sponge bathing him until now. Yesterday I attempted our first real bath and my suspicions proved true. Needless to say, I didn't pause to grab any pictures so today we did a dry run so Brandt could practice chilling in the tub and I was able to capture that moment. He's yawning, not yelling, by the way.
