On Saturday, for the first time, she didn't spend the entirety of her bath screaming! Part of it, yes, but not the entire time! Bath time has not been a pleasant experience for us, so we've been doing it as quickly and infrequently as possible. The funny thing is, it's not the nakedness that bothers her, she doesn't mind getting her diaper changed or hanging out without anything on. It's not the temperature of the water that bothers her, we've experimented with warm to slightly warmer to slightly colder, and nothing makes it better. No, it's the actual wetness that bothers her. I took a bath a few weeks ago, and Calista started to fuss and get hungry, so Kyler stripped her down and brought her in to me to eat. While she was eating, she was very careful to keep her feet out of the water, pulling them up whenever they started to slip in again. She is anti-wetness. Well, at least her bath on Saturday wasn't just her screaming the whole time... makes for much happier parents and a cleaner baby.
On Sunday, she did a couple of cool things. First, she rolled over... from tummy to back and from back to tummy. Not consecutively, but in the same day is still pretty cool, huh?
Second, she totally giggled! I thought she might have previously, but now I'm positive. Kyler heard her, too, and he agreed. And what did my darling daughter laugh at? Me. Dancing. There's got to be a joke there, right?

I'm glad she is liking her baths a little more. That will probably continue to get better. Ivy is the opposite - she doesn't mind being wet, but she HATES it when we take her out to dry her off. It doesn't matter how quickly we get her out and toweled off. She screams the second we remove her from the water.
