scariest bath ever

it went kinda like this...
1. big tub
2. baby doing splits
3. baby sliding around in tub
4. baby reaching for swimming lobster toy
5. baby slamming head into side of bath
6. baby face planting into 4 inches of water
7. mom pulling baby up & trying to pretend she is not freaking out so baby won't freak out
8. mom using dad's stethoscope to listen to baby's lungs b/c she is PARANOID
9. baby's lungs sound clean and good
10. baby gets to play with comb on mom and dad's bed while mom hugs and kisses baby
11. baby takes nap
12. mom checks on baby 5 times during nap to make sure baby is ok
conclusion: back to the sink it is folks!
