Bath Time!

We finally made the leap.  The leap from baby bath tub to big bath tub!  Why the delay?  Lydia has been a fully unsupported sitter for some time now, but it's the trach.  The trach terrifies me.  Water in the trach is a super no no since it's a pathway to her lungs.  So I'm a wee bit anxious at bath time.  Dad brings the smiles, fun and squirty bath toys.  

Alright, so no baby bath tub.  I couldn't just put her in the big tub.  We talked about using a laundry basket to keep her from moving around too much or from falling forward.  She doesn't know her limitations.  After talking to other trach moms we settled on a bath chair.  It's not fancy, but Amazon doesn't seem to know that.  

Lydia now has a diva bath chair and is having a blast!  She's kicking her feet all around in the bubbles, grabbing for her squirty toys, and reaching out to play in the water.  It's so fun!  Still a little terrifying for me when we're washing her hair, but hey, I'll deal.  Look at this kid!
