Boys in the Bath

Between waiting for Silas's umbilical cord to fall off and then his circumcision to heal, tonight he got to take his first real bath.

I waited for Joshua to ask about Silas. He usually does.
"Silas come with to church?"
"Silas watch me eat lunch?"
"Silas listen to bedtime stories?"
Tonight:
"Silas take bath?"
"Yes!!!!"
"We all take bath together!" (because at two and a half you and your brother make "we all")

Joshua was thrilled!

I warned him that Silas might cry, but I wasn't hurting him and I would keep him safe.

I gathered up all the supplies, put Joshua in followed by Silas.

initial reaction

Silas was not excited at first. He cried, but quickly calmed.

Almost too calm for my comfort.

Joshua said he needed a rubber ducky

too intrigued to waste time looking at me

I got to take my quick pics and then I got Silas out and snuggled up.

I couldn't help but include more of these crazy curls. :)
