Bathtime

Austen gets baths twice a week or so. Adler gets baths about every two months. However, every Tuesday and Friday when it's bath time for Austen, Adler is afraid we are going to drag her into the tub for a bath too.

Lately, she's been making herself scarce when she sees us in the bathroom with Austen. It's weird. She will hang out as close to the front window as she possibly can and not even a treat - even if it's cheese - will get her to budge. This usually goes on for about an hour or two before she trusts that Tom and I are not going to make her take a bath. I wonder why she's such a big chicken about getting a bath?

On the other hand, Austen loves his baths. Now that he can sit up, he's even graduated to the big tub (without his baby tub). He likes to splash around and play with his toys, and doesn't mind when water gets in his eyes. Maybe he'll be a swimmer!

Stay tuned for my next blog post on Adler and Austen's transition to our new home (that explains why I haven't posted in awhile. No internet connection - thanks to the wonderful people at Comcast!)
