Nicky doesn't have baths. What I hear you say??? Could we really be such neglectful parents?? No, the fact is that he's way too mature for baths, but instead is more at home in the shower.
Well, actually, as a matter of practicality we decided to start putting Nicky in the shower and following him around with the hose. Because he is constantly on the move, the bath was becoming a tad dangerous. So instead we have laid bathmats on the shower floor, and he is pretty content to crawl around in the shower, watch the water running down the drain, play with his bath toys, play with the shower hose etc etc.
Dressing Nicky for bed after his bath is rather challenging to say the least. Again, this boy just never sits still!! Putting a sleepsuit on him involves trying to distract him sufficiently so he will stay still enough to put the sleepsuit on. Generally we end up following him around. It can be a time consuming process!! One of the photos is an action shot showing me trying to get Nicky's sleepsuit on.
