Erin had her first 'real' bath today. We've given her sponge baths in her bed, but they just weren't cutting it anymore. You wouldn't think that a 4 lb 4 oz baby couldn't stink, but she did. Erin's nurse, Dea, suggested that we give her a 'big girl bath' so that's what we did. Now Erin smells like a sweet baby girl.

Bath time! We even had a rubber ducky in the tub with Erin.
(Thanks to the March of Dimes who gives them to the babies for each holiday.) |

Naked baby without any of her probes on because they came off in the tub. |

| We haven't had a 'family' picture with Erin in almost 6 weeks. |

| Daddy is getting her dressed in her newborn onesie and preemie sleeper. I had so much fun shopping for clothes. |

| Erin without her CPAP prongs in her nose because she was getting a new hat and prongs. She was able to breath on her own the whole time they were out of her nose. |

The clean and happy baby girl who slept through the whole event.
Luckily, we got some videos to show her when she is older (along with a lot of pictures). |
Oh how beautiful! What a great Sunday.
