That The Rub

Our boys are constant motion from the time they wake us at 6:00 am until their 9:00 pm bedtime (and sometimes in-between). Few activities inspire them to be still, but one constant is the after-bath massage. Both enjoy this exercise nearly as much as their beloved bath. One isn’t allowed to hurry through this procedure. They’ll lay flat and coo as long as you rub. We apply generous amounts of Baby Soft Lotion and see that all exposed areas are addressed. It’s interesting to observe the envy displayed by grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends who have observed this post bathing ritual. You wound think they’d trade places on the table if given the chance.
