Jonah's Locks

Jonah has lovely hair.  I wish I had his hair.  I hate cutting it.  But a couple of weeks ago, I did.  I almost cried that night as I tried to fall asleep.  I'm used to it now and it is already starting to grow back out.  He has already had 5 or so haircuts but it never gets easier.


Bath time
 


Sophie Sue...deer in headlights?
 


Before haircut...that hair just makes my heart melt!
 


After haircut.  Still as handsome as ever.

Pee Pee Potty

About 4 months ago I bought a little potty for Jonah. As he was nearing 18 months I got revved up about the prospects of having him potty trained. So far the potty has been used only as yet another toy to play with in the bathroom while we get ready. He refuses to sit on it longer than 5 seconds so I'm not rushing him. I figure it needs to be on his own time (I'll start taking serious action if he nears 3 and isn't potty trained--because lets face it, I might as well be wiping up adult poop at that point).

Today I didn't get to go running before Jon left for work; which pretty much rules out the option of a workout outside the home for the day. So I did a little half hour work out video that my sister lent me while Jonah made comments about "Mommy dancing". Afterwards, I put Jonah in the bath. When it was time to get out and lather him up with lotion and get him dressed, he slipped out of his room while still totally nakey and started playing around in the kitchen. I walked out to get him and saw him squatting on the floor red-faced. I ran over and saw that he had peed on the floor and quickly picked him up and put him on the toilet (NOT his training potty but the real one). As I got out the mop to clean up his mess, I heard SPLASH and ran to find that he had fallen in the toilet. I couldn't help but laugh. I think he was pretty scared but the kid is so darn skinny that I guess it was inevitable. I wish I could have taken a picture.

I think this event today has guaranteed another 6 months in diapers until he has overcome his fear of falling in.


This picture has nothing to do with the post but I wanted to post it a while ago and didn't. I took these pictures in the fall.
