Cayman's first bath

Tuesday, May 6, 2008


Up until today Cayman has only had sponge baths. Today was the first at dipping her into a tub. She started out good...no cries or fussiness. Just wiggled around a little and made a few faces when a new part of her body got covered with water. Then the water works came because she was hungry. We took her head bandage off that was from her surgery a week ago. Because her hair has grown longer since birth, the doctor did have to shave that part of her head where the shunt is.

Here's Cayman earlier today playing on her floor gym. It was so much fun to watch her interact with the dangling animals. She would stare at them, make noises, kick her feet, and even smile. Her 2nd cousins Mike & Julie got her this.


I love this picture of Cayman looking at her Daddy. Her eyes are doing so much better since her shunt revision. Only once in awhile they will sunset (roll downward).
