Bath Time Blunders (again)

Lucy is in her second phase of not liking bath time. This first happen back in October, when I put bubbles in her bath (thinking she would love it)....she did not like the bubbles and therefore decided that she did not like bath time. After about of week of screaming through bath time, she finally got over it and went back to her normal self...LOVING her bath. Well, almost 2 weeks ago (out of nowhere) it started again. It's awful...and this video really breaks my heart. But sister girl has to have a bath.

We really don't know what to do about it. Today, we played in the bathtub several times (with no water) to try and make it a "happy" place. She had a great time as you can see here (although, I'm not sure if Chloe felt the same way)...


Tonight when it was time for bath, she immediately freaked out. I even got in the bath with her, but that did not help. Maybe she is afraid of the water? I have no clue. I'm just hoping this phase passes soon. Life with a baby/toddler is a constant cycle of phases. You make it through one and another one starts. Ugh.

This little light of mine...

Clearly, my voice is horrible...so please just pay attention to how cute Lucy is!

Lucy Preview...

Last weekend we took family pictures with Josh's parents and brothers...this was Julie's Christmas present from all of us. Scott sent me a sneak peak of Lucy today...based on this picture alone, I will consider the photo shoot a success! I can't wait to see the rest!

Fun at the park...

Yesterday morning we met the Rector crew at Andy Brown Park to let the girls play and work off some energy before lunch and nap time!

Having fun at Kid Country...

Feeding the ducks...I think the girls ate more bread than the ducks!

Tripper boy watching the girls....before we know it he'll be running around with them!

Playing chase...

Gotcha!

16 Weeks...

Well, here I am at 16 weeks with baby #2. It's amazing how much faster I started showing with this one...my belly was about this size when I was 20/21 weeks with Lucy! I had a quick check-up today and baby's heartbeat was 154. We'll have a sonogram at my next appointment (20 weeks), but no peeking at his/her little parts! :) Thankfully, I have started feeling so much better over the past week...I truly am grateful to have some of my energy back and shorter episodes of nausea. I've been feeling bad for so long that I've forgotten how it feels to be normal....and it's just incredible! The first trimester crept by, but now the time is flying (Just as it did with Lucy). It's a bit scary, because I know August will be here before we know it!

Thank you Jesus for bringing us this far with baby #2. We ask for your protection over him/her over the next 24 weeks as your miracle forms inside of me.
