Traumatized? I think not!

About a week ago, when we were in Utah with Trapper's family, Bev and Hayley were giving Jackson a bath, and apparently, Jackson slipped in the tub and then he put his face in the water because that's what he does when he's upset. So, he came up screaming his head off. It was kind of funny, but I guess we didn't realize how shook up he was. When we came back to Colorado, the first night we gave him a bath, wasn't two minutes into the tub when he slipped and hit his head. *sigh* After that, he HATED his baths. He would scream and cry and climb onto us as soon as his feet hit the water. It went like this for a week. We had to climb in with him and hold him in our laps, but still, he didn't want the water being poured on him. We didn't know what to do.

Well, Trapper got ready to take a bath with Jackson last night, but we decided to try and put him in his baby tub first. Miraculously, he didn't fuss or cry. Instead, this is what happened. haha Enjoy the video.

I bet that was fun to clean up! We need to get him in a bath with Annabelle to teach her she can splash when she's having fun and not just when she's throwing a fit because we didn't do something just the way she likes it!
