And unfortunately it’s not me.
We’ve been talking with Josiah about cutting his hair really short and he’s been pretty adamant against it. He hates hair cuts and it is often a fight, but he sweats profusely and very easily and it soaks his hair because he plays so hard, so it seemed like a good idea for summer. Finally since Grandma’s wedding is over and Jacob also needed a haircut, we let him help and watch Jacob buzz his hair then it was Josiah’s turn. It started out tough with screaming, tears, and his profuse sweating, but for some odd reason he chilled out and was laughing by the end. Hopefully that is the new trend for hair cut time.
During the haircut Jacob told Josiah he had a pretty head (Jacob was worried how it would look) and Josiah said “I’m not a woman! I’m a man, a big man!” He was so serious. So very cute!
Next came bathtime to wash off all that hair. Since Jacob was hairy, too, they both jumped into the shower which Josiah loves because we have a shower wand. As I was cleaning up the hair, I heard Jacob say “Josiah, stop peeing on me!” and then an all out laugh from Josiah followed by another insistent plea from Jacob. They had way too much fun in the shower after that and at one point Jacob said, “I feel like I’m bathing with mini me”. They do look so much alike. I was cracking up. Josiah was very giddy afterwards and had to play in our bed.
The next day Josiah chanted repetitively throughout the day “I got a haircut, I got a haircut!” and “ I don’t have any hair!” He’s just so excited about it. In fact, he was even excited in his sleep. We woke up more than once in the night to hear him talking very clearly in his sleep over the monitor, mostly about tractors. He’s never done that before. He also has a new fascination with mirrors.

hahaha, that is probably the cutest thing ever! he looks adorable with his little buzz cut. funny story about your last picture - jonah did that accidentally one time when he was only months old (stuck out his tongue when i was going in for a kiss so we wound up touching tongues) and i made such a silly stink about it that now it's a bedtime joke every night when i try to give him a good night kiss he always tries to get me.
He does look like a big boy! So cute, and love the stories to go along with it :)
