Tonight for the first time I gave Natalie a bath in the kitchen sink without the baby bathtub (where she reclines). She is finally sitting up well enough to do this, but I think she still associates a bath with lying down, so I had to use one hand to keep her from throwing herself back and bonking her head, and one hand to wash and rinse. Lukas was good moral support, watching from his perch on a chair, and it was fun to watch her playing with the little bath toys in the water in front of her.
For so long, she didn't have the gross or fine motor control to play with toys, and now she is finally picking things up and playing with them and it is a real joy to see her improvement.
I got the camera out to try to take a pic, but since I don't have three hands yet, it didn't happen.
