Big Boy Stuff

Big Boy Stuff has been happening in the last week or so in our neck of the woods.

First...

We needed to do something about the "long" hair. By my standards... this is kinda long. So... we dragged Daddy along to the barber shop...

... and this is our new haircut. Isnt' it perfect for the hot summers? He doesn't even look like my little boy anymore... more like a little boy who is ready to start kindergarden or something.
Thomas grabbed a seat near Daddy & Abby after his haircut. Boy... don't the boys look like each other with their short, tight hair cuts.
Ms. Peanut is always so impressed with Thomas during his haircuts... he just jumps right up in the chair and let's her cut away. He just cracks up when she squirts his hair with water and acts like the electric clippers tickle him as she is trimming him up. But I have to say... it is always worth the $10 haircut (because of how quick she is and how clean cut she makes him look). The fact that he always gets to go pick out a lollipop doesn't hurt either.

Second...

Brian showed Thomas how to pee standing up last weekend and there has been no turning back since. Thomas loves it and it didn't require any tricks or bribing at all. He just says that he "is a big boy and big boys stand up and pee." Well... I wish potty training period had been that quick and that simply. Somehow I think Brian got the easier job.

We did have a funny conversation about why Mommy wasn't standing to go potty - I believe the word "hose" was used to describe what he and Daddy have... and what Mommy doesn't have. It certainly made both Brian and me laugh.
