Lex got his first real haircut today. I cut
Alan’s, and then we put Lex on his lap and cut his hair too. I
wasn’t sure how he would react, but he was great. He seemed
mildly annoyed that I kept poking him in the head with
scissors, but otherwise he was content reading his books and
pretty oblivious to me. Do you like? Can you even tell from the
photo? He wore his 2T clothes today and looked like such a big
kid. He seems to have hit another speech burst too, so all day
I kept getting struck by how much of a kid he was. Weird, but
cool.
Tonight we had friends over for dinner and they
brought their two boys. We have been home all week and Lex was
thrilled to see other kids, particularly big kids (his
favorite). They played so well together. Lex has started giving
great hugs and he was hugging the boys all night. They were
cute and hugging him back. Tallis, the four year old, even gave
him a big hug on their way out. Then Lex stood by the door
waving and saying “Bye bye Tallis and Luca” over and over. Sooo
cute.
