Training: Shower Time

Most parents I know don't seem to have any problems showering their children. Gabe, however, proved to be a challenge when we transited him from the tub to the shower. The initial period saw lots of screaming, crying, and hence very wet and angry parents. He was so afraid of the water running down his face that the entire bath time would be traumatic for both him and us.

It took us about a month or so of long suffering persistence before he finally gave in to the idea. And it wasn't until about two months later that bath time became as enjoyable as before.

Jemmy's mummy again, gave some very helpful tips on how a mother with a growing tummy could get by bathing a toddler. Thanks, woman!

The latest fad is to burst into a run, out into the living room, screaming with glee and shouting "shame shame!" after the mother has removed all his clothes. Here's a shot of the boy goofing around before he enters the bathroom. He was very amused with the shirt being "stuck" on his head.
