Comments for Life as Lou http://www.leahkillian.com Fri, 18 May 2012 04:25:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 Comment on Time, Energy, Balance- ? by Michelle Price http://www.leahkillian.com/?p=1628#comment-20138 Michelle Price Fri, 18 May 2012 04:25:41 +0000 http://www.leahkillian.com/?p=1628#comment-20138 Remember slow and steady wins the race. It's better to be slowly moving forward than running like a mad woman for a few miles and collapsing on the side of the road. Don't use anyone else as your life gauge. No one is perfect-they are just better at hiding their inadequacies! Remember slow and steady wins the race.

The joy of boys! However, I can also pass along some info since we had this exact same thing happen at our house - with baths. Carter loved them, until the rinse came along. After several months of fighting, he told me the soap hurts his eyes. We were using Target brand baby shampoo - tear free. Well, I tried it out myself, and OW - that stuff burns! I felt so bad. Now, he's almost 6 and we still splurge on name brand baby shampoo. No more fights! Could just be a biy who hates baths, but I pass along that info- just in case! ;) Been there…done that!

That's how I wash one of my dogs, she loves the hose, hates the bath. Or maybe give him some soap crayons and let him draw all over himself and then scrub off the drawings.

Dogs and kids are the same - they don't mind beeing (extremely) wet outdoors, but as soon as you whisper "bath time": they vanishes. Water hoses, squirt guns, ponds, sea water in march - they are ok with all of that - but the bath tub? Oh no. I wander when they - read: the kids - realize that beeing clean is ok.... I hear you!

He's obsessed with the hose (back yard and front yard) and I change his dripping clothes all the time. Yet I can't wash the kid's hair for ANYTHING and he screams there is soap in his eyes when the soap/tear-free shampoo hasn't come within 5 feet of the tub. Criminy. I may have to try the sink hair-washing thing method, because I'm desperate. I could literally write this exact post, but swap Porter for Gabe.

That way he gets clean head to toe without so much fight. I’d wash his hair in the sink and then send him to the bathroom for a bath. That way he gets clean head to toe without so much fight.
