When Charlotte's umbilical cord finally fell off, we were very excited to give her her first real bath. We had made our first parenting mistake when we tried to give Charlotte a sponge bath. To keep the baby warm, you're supposed to just wash one body part at a time and dry it right off. But in our over zealousness we just jumped right in and sponged her whole body! Of course she got cold and started crying and we realized our error. So needless to say, we were looking forward to full submersion. Charlotte loved it, too.
