Well, we couldn't resist trying to give little Harrison a bath when we got home from the hospital. We knew it was a stressful day for all parties but decided to give it a shot anyway -- wash all that hospital-ness off of him.
So we got the water and washcloth and towel and fresh clothes and a million other things ready and stripped him down, which froze his baby butt and made him cry (which we all expected).. Then his crying made Rachel cry (which none of us expected).. Pretty soon the only pictures Chris could take had a crying person in them (no, not him), so he called the bath about 30 seconds into it. We'll try again another day. Oh! One bright spot of the bath was that Harrison peed on Rachel for the first time!
Don't worry -- as soon as the baby was dressed and warm, no one was crying anymore! And the rest of our first night at home was perfect. :)
