An uncanny interest in Laurel’s bath habits has emerged recently. Several mama pals have asked how often we do baths (the inquiries appear to confirm whether or not their own bath habits are reasonable). And then there’s my mom, who, in response to my comment about Laurel’s shiny mop (my mom had just bathed her), said “Yes, her hair really shines now doesn’t it? I’ve always wondered why her hair never looks shiny.” Ouch. My mom's been on a bit of a weird bender about my lackluster housekeeping these days, and now it’s extended to my Laurelkeeping.

Clearly, it's time for our first poll. We want to know, how often do you bathe your babe?
