Rachel's First Bath at Home

When Nicholas was a newborn, Stuart gave him his first bath at the kitchen sink. It is easier for him to do this than for me since he is taller and is better able to grasp the squirming, slippery wet baby. So I didn't argue a few days ago when Stuart volunteered to give Rachel her first bath at home.

Stuart is so in love with his little girl. You can just see it when he's holding her or talking to her. During the bath, he spoke so sweetly to her the whole time he was bathing her. She loved all the attention, soft words, and warm water. After bath time, the two of them snuggled together on the couch.
