We received the all clear on giving Nadia a real bath yesterday and she enjoyed it thoroughly.... NOT.... actually she did cop a smile for a few seconds and even more so when it was done.
I do not know about any other fathers out there but as a former wrestler and person who breaks things by accident these types of situations stress me out. I am scared to death during situations where she squirms and wiggles trying to escape my grasp.
The fact is I feel worn out after baths or diaper changes because I get nervous. The feeling, I would assume is the same feeling a bomb expert gets when they diffuse a bomb without protection. Fortunately I have no way to verify this and I do not plan on proving this theory true outside of my own mind. Actually, I do that with a lot of my theories so this is no different.
I am enjoying every moment, messy diapers and all. I would love more sleep (actually sleeping more now than I was 2 months ago anyway) but there is nothing better than feeding Nadia in the middle of the night while Tash is able to rest. Just Nadia and myself and complete silence except for Nadia's squeaking and grunting, and the occasional question I ask her. Those times might be the most peaceful moments my life has ever seen.
