Tub Omen
Tonight we tried giving Ezra a bath in the tub and not just his mini-tub. If -v- and I were believers in omens, we would have read the fact Ezra had a poop in his diaper before the bath that then smeared on -v-’s pants as an omen of the fussiness to come.
Pretty much immediately he was adverse to the idea of getting into the tub even though the water wasn’t that deep. After a few minutes of him refusing to get in we pulled out his mini-tube and began to fill it with water. He was more than happy to stand in his mini-tub and play with the water as it came out of the spout. During the water filling stage Ezra lifted up the knob on the tub spout thereby making the shower head spray water on -v- and Ezra. This freaked Ezra out, and by this time all hope was lost for a full bath, so we hurried and cleaned him as best we could and got him dry and in is pajamas. Maybe next bath time we will be more successful with bathing Ezra in the big tub, or maybe his is not ready.
