First Bath and Thanksgiving



We are not that neglectful of parents that we just gave Owen his first bath.  However, it was his first bath in the tub this week - prior to that - we were giving him sponge baths on his changing pad.  As you can see, he was not digging the bath at first.

Murphy was of course very concerned when he heard the wailing and decided to assist Barret with bath time.



Eventually, he grew to somewhat like the bath and we ended up with a clean baby, who was somewhat happy.


We spent a lot of time lounging this week.  We finished watching season 1 of Homeland - which was amazing.  Then, AT&T decided to give us free Showtime this weekend.  So Barret and I took down the 8 episodes of season 2 that were on demand the Friday after Thanksgiving.  It was a great day and not at all depressing....  I am now wondering if we will end up purchasing Showtime to see how the season concludes.




Uncle Nick came to town for Thanksgiving and stayed with us for a couple days.  He mastered diaper changing in that time and was really good with Owen.  I think we may have to refer to him as Uncle NeNe.

We do not have any of the photos yet, but Barret's family took a four generation photo over Thanksgiving (Owen, Barret, Barret's dad and grandma).  Becoming a great-grandma is quite a feat in itself, however, this is the fourth four generation photo that Barret's grandma has been a part of.  I think that is very special.  I never had any great grandparents, but Owen is very lucky to have 3 great-grandmas and 2 great-grandpas.  I am guessing I will never get to be a great-grandma, unless Owen becomes 16 and Pregnant, but I have to imagine that it is a pretty great title to have.
