Bath Time!
So this actually happened about a week ago... but I haven't had a free moment to post until now....
Last Wednesday Connor got his casts off for good!!!! So... once he was finally not as cranky from them, we gave him his first bath on Thursday night. He really wasn't sure what to think.
As long as he had the pacifier, life was good. And boy does he like that big cup of water being poured over his belly! Here was the finshed product.
It's become our nightly routine to get a bath, read a book (Lots of times is the Cubs 101 board book), eat a snack, and then settle in for the night. The good news is its working. He's slept through the night 3 or 4 times this week! And luckily not every bath has a face like this...

Good news!!!
Haven't had a chance to post since we went to the doctor on Wednesday...
Dr. Kayes was very impressed with Connor's progress! He said at our next appointment on Wednesday, they'll measure him for his shoes and put his LAST cast on!!! So exciting!!! So... keeping our fingers crossed, he will be done with casts and into his shoes by May 14th. And even better news... it's looking as though he won't have to have surgery.
We're sorta kinda maybe starting to get on a schedule also. Which is good... since I go back to work a week from Monday. I really am looking forward to going back. I love every minute I spend with my son... but I love teaching too. Plus, it's only for 2 and half weeks... then I have the whole summer off with him.
