Splish, Splash!

Riley has always enjoyed bath time, and it used to be part of her nightly routine.


However, after developing eczema from head to toe, we had to cut back to only bathing her only 2-3 times/week, yet figure out how to continue with a routine that she would familiarize with bedtime. So, when it's not bath night, we have jammy time on our bed and give Riley a little extra lotion massage.

Applying lotion a couple of times a day has helped relieve her extremely dry skin, but we still added a humidifier to her room to provide extra moisture during the dry winter months. And although the lotion does make her skin a little sticky...I don't think we can use that as an excuse as to why these jammies wouldn't snap into place.

We just have to come to grips with the fact that our baby is growing up right before our very eyes. Our favorite sweet cake jammies have gone into retirement!
