Timothy got his first haircut this afternoon. It had been well past his eyes and starting to look like it was annoying him. So during his afternoon nap I trimmed the front and a little over the ears. He looks so different! (And his hair is amazingly different than Ben’s to cut.)

Unfortunately, the other difference you might notice is his upper lip. He had a couple of run-ins with a kid-sized wheelbarrow this afternoon. First Ben rammed it into his tummy and knocked him over, then while I was discussing with Ben why that was not a nice thing to do, Timothy climbed into the wheelbarrow and it tipped him out onto his face on the concrete. Poor kid. He has such a fat lip, but once it stopped bleeding and I gave him some Tylenol (he got less than half of it in him, the rest he wiped all over his face — it works topically, too, right?) he was back to his normal chirpy self. He even ate a fair amount of dinner.

I’m sure he’ll recover quickly and then we’ll get a better picture of his hair.
