You looked at Haru and smiled as you started to pull his clothes off. "Bath time, baby"

By the time you had Haru's clothes and diaper off, you decided to turn the bath on. That's when Haru realized it was bath time. His eyes lit up and you saw him open his mouth, his lips turning up in a smile.

You matched his wide smile. "Bath time? I know you love bath time, I love bath time too" You said quietly, still keeping the happy tone in your voice because Haru loved bath time.

You managed to take your own clothes off while holding onto Haru with one hand, something you had mastered in the past few months of using this bathing method.

Daiki was too unreliable, you couldn't leave Haru with him unattended, not even long enough for you to shower. So your solution was this, taking a bath at the same time as Haru. It was also nice because you got to spend time with your baby when you knew he would be happy. It may not be the most effective method for you to get clean, it was hard to bathe while holding a squirming baby, but it was the most effective method for you and your baby to get clean under your circumstances.

The bath tub looked like it had filled enough, so you stepped in and nodded at the temperature before sitting down. You held Haru above the water a bit so you could slowly lower him in to get him used to the water.

Haru squealed with delight and hit his hands against the surface of the water. You laughed at his splashes and sat him down so he was laying against your bent legs. The water came up to about his belly button and still covered enough of your body for you to be warm.

"My baby loves bath time" You said with a smile, lightly squishing your finger against Haru's cheek.

You reached over to the side of the tub and squeezed a pump of baby shampoo into your hand. You put it in Haru's hair and started rubbing it in.

You smiled to yourself as you got an idea. "You try, baby" You picked up Haru's hands and brought them to the top of his head. You rubbed them around the shampoo. "Wow, you're so good at washing your hair"

Haru just stared at you, looking a bit uncomfortable because of the way you were holding his arms up.

"You're probably too little to learn this yet" You said with a small disappointed look. "It's okay though, you take your time." You continued to rub Haru's hands around his soapy hair. "I'll keep encouraging you"

You put Haru's arms back down finally and then finished rubbing his shampoo in to make sure it was good. Then you grabbed Haru's cup from the side of the tub and poured water over his hair to rinse it.

You lifted Haru for a moment, raising him up out of the water and towards your face. "You're my little baby for now"

Haru smiled at you and reached his hand towards your face.

"Oh, you're so cute!" You gushed as you brought him close enough to your face so you could kiss his cheek. "My little baby's so cute!" You continued to kiss his cheek while he giggled at your affection.
