Splish Splash at 5 Weeks Old

Amelia turned 5 weeks old on Monday, May 4th! Her umbilical stump FINALLY fell off the day before so we could FINALLY put her in the bathtub! Hurray! The big question on our minds was: would Amelia like the bath or hate it? We waited until William was in bed so we could really focus on enjoying her first bath without everyone's favorite helper around. Mama was in charge of the washing and Daddy was in charge of the pictures and video (video will come later, maybe).
Here are Amelia's 5 week old pictures and pictures of her first bath (they are the same because I am lame).


Getting ready. Amelia and her 876651679687 neck rolls have no idea what is coming.

Time to get naked! The bath is ready and waiting!
Smiles for the Mama!
Peekaboo!
And the moment we were waiting for! So far so good - no crying at least!
An extra washcloth for modesty...and take a look at the belly! No weight worries at this house anymore! I'm so proud of our good eater!
Looking at Mama
Washing the hair
Pinching (gently, of course) those chubby cheeks! How can you resist? And I swear we have the red eye function on our camera turned on. Hmm...I guess I should check it again.

Seriously sweet! That top photo she looks like William; You can tell they are siblings...I think in the pictures below (especially where he is holding Amelia) William looks like John. Funny how that works, huh???

I hope you had a wonderful mother's day!!!
