How To Cure A Crabby X

Put him in the bathtub!


On a recent Saturday X had a terrible night sleep and was really crabby during the day. It seemed that nothing would make him happy. We usually do baths at night, but Walter and I were desperate for something to change his tune. So, we decided some playtime in the bathtub was worth a shot, even if it was noon. I joined in for a change of pace and we played for almost an hour. I know you're not supposed to put much water in with a little one, but I was freezing so we filled it up more than normal which made X slightly boyant at some points! He enjoyed the distraction from his crabbiness and then happily slept for 2 1/2 hours.



Mom, the water's getting chilly -- let's refill!


The favorite toy...a cup!


Watching the elmo submarine.


Look, the water's almost up to my armpits!
