When Baby Grace was first born she loved the water. She especially loved having her hair shampooed during her bath.When she became big enough for the tub I would put her in and she would kick her legs and move from one end of the tub to the other while happily splashing. Then a few weeks ago we had an incident, an incident which drained all the joy out of bath time. Neil was giving Grace her bath and usually he soaps her all up, then drains the tub, then rinses her off with fresh water from the faucet. Well, Neil soaped her up and thought he pulled the plug from the drain and turned on the water and THEN returned to the book he was reading. Well, he looked over a few minutes later and only Grace's mouth was above water! Since then she has refused to lay down in the bath tub and will rarely even stay seated. So today, instead of the bath tub we tried the kitchen sink and we were successful.

Ahhh! How absolutely petrifying! I have to admit I don't know if I'd let Dave bathe Carly again if that had happened. I'm so glad that she was ok and that you've come up with a good alternative.
Wow, Neil.... Wow!
haha i remembered doing something similar to little baby sadie... they dont quite get over things liek that. i'm glad she is alive :)
Oh dear! That does sound bad. I am with Camille, I would take Niel off bathtub duty for a while. (Although I am sure he feels very bad and is now very vigilent). I am glad she is fine and it appears the sink is a hit. Very cute pictures!
