Abby, Zoë and Enzo

Enzo's umbilical cord still hasn't fallen off, so we knew we couldn't give Enzo a bath with him all in water, but he was in desperate need of a little more than a wipe down.  Especially with what we have to work with as far as rags (none) and such, we put some water in one of our big buckets, enough to cover his diaper area, and had some water on the side to dip our hands in and rinse.  Maybe it's the climate, but Enzo's skin is especially peely in area's and was hard to get off.  Finally to rinse I just held Enzo horizontally over the sink while Chris carefully rinsed the neck area, then the diaper area, trying not to get the umbilical cord area wet.  Enzo seemed to enjoy some of it, like when I first sat him in the water and washed it over his legs a few time, but there was much crying towards the end, until he was all wrapped in a towel to warm up.  It will be nice when we don't have to deal with that umbilical cord and can let him bathe in more water.  I think it will be more enjoyable for him and easier for us.
