Joseph's Week

Joseph has been hanging out with Mom all week long. He has been growing his hair out and needed to figure out how to fix his hair.(His hair is really long and curly, but it frizzes all the time.) So I took him with me to my hair dresser. He got a wash and trim and watched as I had my eye brows waxed. Then he pointed out that he has a UNIBROW! So I offered to pay for him to have his unibrow waxed. TOO FUNNY!!!! He pulled both feet up and jumped from the seat and screamed. Audrey (the hairdresser) and I laughed so hard that I was crying.

Then he needed to go to the doctor today for shots. When his height was measured, he came in at a whopping 5ft 8.25 inches. Oh my gosh! He weighs 128 pounds. The doctor said that he is in the 105th percentile for height and 90th percentile for weight. He is getting TOO big. Then the doctor went through the exam. Part of the exam was where he needed to check Joseph's abodmen. Joseph was totally caught off guard when the doctor said his stomach was fine and then playfully slapped Joseph on his stomach. Then the doctor asked Joseph to drop his pants so he could check on other things. The look on Joseph's face was of horror! Joseph was so stunned he just looked at me and had to be asked again. I excused myself to help Joseph to be more relaxed. If he could be relaxed!

Next were the shots! Joseph chewed 4 pieces of gum and tensed up. It was a sight. This tall guy with a twisted up face awaiting a shot.

The car:
In the car I received a play by play of the occurences in the office. He was totally morified at the words, Turn your head and COUGH! I can only imagined the way in which his life has now been changed.

Sometimes it is fun to laugh at your kids!

I will post some pictures once I can get them off of my phone.

What a day! I can't believe how TALL Joseph is! Oh my gosh! His first grown up physical, huh? Did the hairdresser give you any ideas for keeping the frizz down? If not, let me know. I have to deal with that too! Maybe he gets his curls from me! HA!

Thanks Kara!

The hairdresser told Joseph to use my de-frizz and work with his hair while it is wet then maybe it won't frizz as much. The problem is..he won't "fix" his hair wet or dry. I think he sees it as girly. I don't know. We need to work on the hair thing over the summer.

I have laughed at/with him for days. The looks on his face with the eyebrow wax and coughing was hilarious.
