Salon Beautiful

So her skin is getting much better and that means there are sort of waxy, flaky bits that are coming off as part of the healing process. I got to give her a sponge bath today and try to get some of those off, kind of like peeling if you got a sunburn. There is an infant massage specialist who was supposed to stop by after our bath so that I can learn some infant massage techniques but she got called away to something else so we will learn that next week. We washed her hair and got it all dry and fuzzy but we had to take off the CPAP machine and use the oxygen mask kind of close to her face, she of course wanted to help hold it so the cool breeze went just so over her new hair do - you can kinda see the little light brown peach fuzz standing straight up and soooo soft, until we slick it down with lotion and put her hat back on.
We had an excellent cuddle today and stayed all warm and relaxed through our bath. Not a bad way to spend a friday afternoon getting pampered by the NICU spa team...
