Baths and Drones

Posted byfotinitheo1Posted inUncategorized
Miral’s first bath in a real bath was given by…

..daddy!  Miral was NOT a fan of sponge baths (is anyone really?) but she loves the bath.  She likes the warm water and laying there looking all around.  She doesn’t like how cold it is when she gets out (although with air off in a tropical country it’s pretty warm) but once she’s wrapped up in a warm towel she’s happy again! And she doesn’t like when mommy’s not careful and water drips on her face (does anyone really?) but she loves when you squeeze the water on her tummy. 

During the weekend these two get to step in and help give Miral her baths.  They love helping and are super careful with her! It’s great that they love helping take care of her.  Poor Adam had a fever this week and was so upset he couldn’t give Miral kisses.

Two things to note here, first Malcolm’s outfit.  I love it a whole lot.  He just got those rain boots and decided they would pair perfectly with his Paw Patrol pajamas.  Second he loooooves helping with Miral’s bath time.  Although in typical three year old fashion, when I ask him to focus on her belly and legs (and not the face) it suddenly becomes IRRESISTIBLE to wash her face.  Next time I’m going to tell him not to wash her belly and see how that goes 🙂

Is there anything better than a clean baby!

Malcolm even likes to helps put her diaper on, which anyone with a newborn knows is a dangerous roulette game of pee and poo.

Such concentration!

We transformed our guest room into Miral’s room/guest room and its great. It’s sunny and bright and the boys love hanging out with us in there.  When Randy first walked in he said- I guess you knew you were having a girl.  I did not, I just wanted a room that was warm and welcoming!

Here is Adam’s newly acquired flying drone.  He finally earned it by doing loads of chores.  It’s been all he’s talked about since he started school and saw one at his friends house.  So we made a chore chart and he was so good about earning checks for this drone.  In case anyone is worried, we didn’t fly it in Miral’s room….it was just there hanging out because he loves it so much.  Best part about that drone is the battery lasts 7 minutes and then needs to be charged which is just the perfect amount of time.

Here is Miral’s nest.  Malcolm for some reason is obsessed with making Miral nests, I am not sure where this came from but it’s pretty cute, even if mommy has to clean up the nests afterwards.

We’ve veered pretty far off from baths, so I guess I’ll end here somewhere between nests and drones.
