oh baby.

This gal loves nothing more than babies...nothing, I tell you. So for christmas she got babies galore...and her favorite of all favorites is her bathtub baby. Hads is a phenomnenal mama to her little bean. She makes sure to warn baby before she washes her hair as to not get soap in her eyes, she pats her baby & tells her 'it's okay, the tubby is just warm not hot', and best of all, she smothers her baby in lotion after the bath. Oh it's all so familiar. And of course, she was thrilled when she and her baby were 'matchers' in their towels.

And in this photo...I'm thinking she is practicing her best 'sorry officer, I know I left my baby in the tub unsupervised, but I swear, I thought she'd cry if she was drowning...and i promise, I've only had 5 gin & tonics' face.

Since she is so tall and could pass for a 15 year old, and loves babies, can I hire her to babysit? She is so darn cute and it's been way too long since I saw her (and you) last. Lets make a playdate acutally happen.

Something you are trying to tell us Megan...

She KILLS me, so funny! That serious face...she is a serious bathtime bather in her not so serious duck towel. XOXO

love her mini baby.

the matching towels are priceless. And her mug shot face will come in handy later in life for sure.

So, when she says these things to her baby...the warning about the tub water temp, etc..does she look at you from the corner of her eye as if to imply "Wish MY mama would have said these things to ME before getting in the tub?" Because if she isn't, then that means you really are the best Mama around and she has learned some pretty sweet ways from you. You are a model of a mother.(OK, I am trying not to snicker after writing that. I'm sure most of the things you say to me (and I respond with my own anecdotes)are not said in front of or to Miss Jane.

she is the most wonderful mama, and if you get to see her nursing....that is serious business.

Hilarious! Love how you can find the drunk mama look in her face. And fiona's right...you are an amazing mama...that's where she learns it! (Although I don't think I'm too shabby of a mom but my kid wants to kill us and pretends to be a lion...what does that tell ya?)
