Adventures in parenting!

Hello all... Funny story.
Yesterday Tyler and I were sitting in the living room enjoying some old episodes of the "Office" when Tolkien took a trip into the bathroom. Now usually when this happens, he either...
(a) washes his hands a million times(b) looks out the window for squirrels
(c) looks for my make-up to put on
And you thought I would say, go to the bathroom!
But this time, things went a bit differently. Tolkien must have really been looking for some privacy, because he locked himself in. Now, because its an older house, we have no key for the bathroom. So Tyler ran around the back of the house while I spent 3 minutes trying to explain to a 2 1/2 year old how to unlock a door. When he got to the back windo of the bathroom, he tried to climb in the window, but that was locked as well. By the miracle of Tolkiens abilitly to communicate Tyler was able to tell Tolkien how to unlock the window so Tyler could climb in.
Finally when Tyler got inside, he saw Tolkien's reason for privacy, he needed a new hair style. Unfortunatly he didnt listen to his hairstyling mom when she said less is more when it comes to product, and he wound up with all of dad's hair wax in his hair. What an afternoon! Enjoy the pics!
Oh,,, and Talulah is doing wonderfully!! Here are some new pics!

hahahaha...that was an awesome story! Ohh man, I bet it was sooo funny when you saw him come out of the bathroom with his new hair style. Too bad he wasn't working on his big boy potty skills. Ahh well...glad he got out of there...he is very smart to be able to figure out how to unlock the window...that is impressive!

Wow...Talulah looks so different already...what a sweetie pie she is. Can't wait to see you all again!
