Gwen loves water. She always has. She gets two baths a day. One in the afternoon before her nap and one in the evening before bed. She's nearly fearless in the water. She loves to lean under the faucet and let the water run on her head. She doesn't even freak out if some gets in her eyes. She likes to lay down in the water on her belly or on her back and "swim". She'll kick her feet and get water everywhere. We can't wait for warm weather and the opening of our condo's pool. I think we'll be spending a lot of time there again this summer.
At night, Gwen brushes her teeth in the bath. We kept losing toothbrushes because she likes to brush on the go and then hides them when she's done. It's a lot easier this way.
Even though the water is above her ears, she likes to lay on her back in the water. Especially when the water is draining out for some reason. I think she likes the way it sounds with her head under the water.
Nothing fixes our grumpy toddler like a good warm soak. As our saying goes: soak a crab in water. It's a good thing she doesn't have sensitive skin like some of her cousins. She'd go crazy without her baths and we would too.
