We've been giving Harper quick sponge baths on the counter since we brought her home. It's been working out fine and lets us both have our own jobs so it gets done more quickly. I typically wash her face and body, and Jon make sure her hair and scalp get clean. Then Jon does the lotion while I'm trying to diaper and get clothes on. There's been a couple of times where she stayed pretty quiet, especially enjoying having her head rubbed and the lotion put on. But for the most part she screams throughout the entire process.
The other night we decided to try a sink bath. This will probably be the last time we try this for a while! Not only was it the usual mix of our hands and arms trying to get in and out, do this or that... but with a wet, slippery baby!! I managed to get a few shots of Jon doing the washing until he politely (kinda) asked me to put the camera down and help. And yes, she still screamed throughout the entire process....

Little does she know bath time will soon be one of her favorite things.
