Oil Bath and My First Pram Ride

Nov. 17 - I had an oil bath today. They rubbed me with coconut oil, held me in the washbasin filled with warm water, and Oni grabbed some Basin powder in her wrist and quickly applied it on me before rinsing it off.

I must confess that I enjoyed the bath this time, although I have instructed my handlers to raise the temperature of the bath water by 2 or 3 degrees next time.

That is me in the pram. Mommy is in red, and she is responsible for clothing me in seven layers of clothes - a onesie, sleeper, red sweater, swaddle cloth, yellow blanket, blue blanket, blue cap, mittens, and socks. And no, the one on the left is not a russian soldier, but Oni dressed in all black, and ready to take on anything that the Canadian winter might throw at her. Today she was unfazed, save for a few sniffs, and even walked quite briskly through the park without being out of breath.
