PS this is the "you don't need a bath tonight" routine. Is that bad? Do you give your toddler a bath each night? Ain't nobody got time for that over here... ;)
Kisses for Blair
Thursday, May 8, 2014
We've got Blair's bedtime routine down to a science. First she picks out two books from her shelf for us to read to her after she's all ready for bed. She flips through them while I put on her jammies and bedtime diaper. Next she sits on the counter while I brush her teeth and rub her essential oils on her back. Then she insists on standing up on the counter so she can "kiss herself" goodnight on the mirror. It kills me every time!
After that I put her in her bed and we read two books, say prayers, and sing. Sometimes she requests two "soft animals" to sleep with and then it's lights out. And 99% of the time we don't hear from her till morning!

Nope! We aim for every other night and wash hair even less unless dirty. Love your routine, ours is definitely dragged out ha
ReplyDeleteWe skip baths whenever she is clean enough to do so! Which isnt very often! If we take an early day bath for a special event, night time bath is automatically out of the question. Same with washing hair.
ReplyDeleteBath every night?!? Around here you get bathed if you look physically dirty or if mom can't remember the last time she bathed you. :/
ReplyDeleteMine is just turning one so she isn't in the "play outside and get dirty" stage. She gets a bath three times a week. I know that will change soon so I'm enjoying it in the mean time.
ReplyDeleteSo fun! NO we don't give a bath every night - its actually not very good for their skin to get bathed everyday so you are doing it right!

These pictures are SO SO sweet!! You're going to be so thankful you captured that little routine moment someday :)
ReplyDeleteWe're bath every day in the summer people and then every other day in the winter months when she doesn't get quite so dirty :)
Ah! So so so cute! Yeah, we do bath every night, because it's a total routine and cue for her to sleep. So I'm too scared to mess with it. Once in awhile, we've skipped the hair wash because it's too late, but very rarely. I think it calms her down.
