Bath time for the first 3+ months of Owen's life was not much fun for any of us. Owen would voice his displeasure with shrieks and crying, and we would race to clean the important parts and move on to happier things! But now that he's gotten a good layer of baby fat under him, and seems to delight in being undressed, bath time is finally a happy time. Or at the very least, it's not a sad time.
Apparently Punxatawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter this morning, so the snow we're receiving today is fitting. But overall, it's been a pretty easy winter by Green Bay standards - snow accumulation is way down compared to last year, and though the temperatures are downright frigid lately, February should bring some warmer days.
Owen and I are counting down the days until our trip to south Florida later this month to hang with family in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. It'll be my first solo air travel with the baby (wish me luck), his first dose of warm sunshine, and my Grandma's chance to show off her great-grandson to all the other condo regulars. We're also eager to see my good friend Emma, who's planning to come over to Ft. Lauderdale for a few days from Sarasota. 18 more days....
