Bath Time with Holden

Holden at bath time....a bit of a different story. His crying starts before we even enter the bathroom--more like when we start taking his clothes off--such a touch-me-not! Except when it's time to cuddle of course! Holden exclusively bathes at nighttime. He knows better than to get himself messy with diaper accidents cause he hates baths so much. He stays as clean as he possibly can in hopes that mommy and daddy may even stretch his bathing to every other 2 days instead of every other day...but, not much of a chance buddy! (unless we're super duper tired of course!)
So here he is in the very beginning already crying

Taking a break for smiles from daddy...not a chance of getting one from Holden though!

This is his "please someone help me, my parents are trying to drown me" face

My sweet baby, like Nora calms a bit on their bellies

Then it's time to rinse, the water spigot is much quicker, but oh so much scarier!

Shampooing his balding head! Really about all that is left is a thick patch at the nape of his neck that just keeps getting thicker...He's beginning to look even more like an old man with his receding hairline!

drying off with mommy, finally safe and secure

and hungry too! mommy tries to kiss him, but Holden has a surprise for her--lip latching!

Then Daddy diapers and dresses Holden...he's back to crying now.

"Can't they just stop messing with me? I'll be a sweet boy, really."

Almost done now, and wore slap out!

and just a little disclaimer: for those of you observant people who are also focused on each twin equality--Holden also got his cuddle time and feeding time, we just don't have any pics because his sister was SCREAMING and Mommy had to go attend to her...thus no one was around to document the "loving on Holden" part of the routine!
