Bathtime/Bedtime

I'd really like to start some type of bedtime routine for Sam so that he gets used to going to sleep each night at the same time.  We've been trying to loosely follow a schedule of bathtime, story (sometimes) and bottle, then bed.  Sam used to hate bathtime but Jack has figured out a way to make it comfortable for Sam.

He gives Sam the spa treatment.  He runs a hot shower so that the bathroom is nice and steamy warm.  Jack is behind the curtain getting the tub ready.

Then we put Sam in the tub and cover him with warm washcloths.  Then I clean Sam while Jack talks to him and plays with his hands.  Finally we take a warm towel out of the dryer and dry him, lotion is next and then get him dressed in his PJs.



Here I am reading Sam a story.

Here's Jack and Sam playing in front of the bathroom mirror.
