Orion's First Bath


Today Orion is a week and a day old, and we figured it was time for his first bath. The Birth Center doesn't bathe new babies like a hospital does, so he had some days to soak up the rest of the vernix and what not. However, we decided it was time and got him in his little tub on the sink. He wasn't too sure if he liked it or not, but mostly cooperated with us.
After wards we rubbed a teaspoon of walnut oil over his body, including scalp, as it's good for his skin and full of Omega 3's, which he'll absorb into his system. That's good for his brain and eye development!
