Diaper Rash Drama

After our recent trip to the doctor's office, Brinley was diagnosed with a double ear infection. Ugh. Hope she doesn't have her mommy's genes when it comes to ears-- my medical chart by the age of four was thicker than the Bible! SooooOOOoooOOooOOooo many ear infections.

Well, as you might guess, Brinley's ear infections mean she is on antibiotics (yuck!). Along with the antibiotics, Brinley has also contracted a VERY VERY bad diaper rash. 

And to add to this poor baby's pain, she LOVES her morning bath time. She plays in her bath for about an hour every day. But until this rash is cleared up, Mommy says "NO LONG BATHS! You cannot be sitting in water for an hour every day!". But since I am learning to parent with grace, this is what I came up with this morning....

 Yes- I realize it's not the same, but it's better than nothing, right? I gave her her bath, then drained it and put the towel down in the bottom of the tub. She actually really liked it.

Playing and playing and playing

Hey- check out my tub!

 She loved playing in her new bath...

Even Daddy joined in on the fun!
