Big Move to the Big Tub

After July's incident with taking baths in the kitchen sink (click here), we decided to move the party to the real tub.  The big boy tub.  It was quite the experience.  When we first put Jackson in the tub he didn't really know what to think.  He just sat there for a few seconds.

 But then I think he came to a realization: so much more room!  More room to splash, more room to move, more room for more toys, and new things to grab.

When we first put him in the tub we didn't have a mat on the bottom of the tub so he was slipping and sliding quite a bit.  For the following few bath nights we put his baby tub in the bathtub and sat him in that which was alright, but he kept trying to climb out of it or would drop toys out of it and then try to get them.  I picked up a tub mat a few days later and we were back in business!  Jackson loves baths even more now!  We have played with all kinds of toys and Jackson is still trying to grab ahold of that water that runs out of the faucet.  He likes to crawl back and forth across the tub, grab anything that is sitting on the sides of the tub, pull himself up on the side of the tub, and of course, splash.  A few days ago we introduced Jack to bubble bath which was a great hit.  

There's always lots to do, so much to explore and learn, when you're 10 months old, even if you're just supposed to be getting clean!
