 Cradle Cap

Harper still has some Cradle Cap (which every time I try to say it, it comes out as Cradle Crap -- no matter how hard I try to say it the right way).  Anyways, the doctor said we should rub some Hydrocortizone cream on it, let it sit for a few hours and then scrub it out really good.  The doctor's words were something along the line of most babies are bald so it is easy to apply the cream -- good luck to you - you really need to get it in there.  Ha -- thanks Doc :)  So I have now put it off for a few days and decided today was the day to attempt it.  Here are some shots of her lovely hair do with the cream.

And here is her cute little grin all squeaky clean after her bath.  We will probably have to do it at least one more time but it seemed to work really well this time!

And in case anyone was curious -- she officially weighs 17.6 pounds at her 9 month doctor's appt.  She is a little peanut for her weight, a medium peanut for her height, but her noggin is huge :) hahaha  Guess it just means she will be a genius :)
