Evan's Faux-Hawk

Evan used to love taking baths. Well, maybe I am exaggerating a little bit--he might not have loved them. But he certainly didn't hate them. Just in the past couple of weeks, he has developed a phobia of getting into the tub.

At first we thought he had a sore behind (from the latest round of antibiotics), and that was why he would scream and hold on to your arm for dear life when you put him in the bath. Then Jeremy made the discovery that if he got in the tub too, there was no yelling or mad flailing--Evan would sit between his legs and play with his toys. Either this is just a "stage" or Evan has made the connection that his vestibular deficiencies could potentially cause him some trouble in the water. At any rate, we have opted to not force the issue (and take turns bathing with him instead).

This morning, we had some fun experimenting with a new hairstyle for Evan. His hair is so curly, it even flops over when we try to spike it.
