Andrew's New Behavior

Out of the blue, this weekend, Andrew decided that he now wants to take a shower every day. Prior to this, he would only take a bath. Bath day was sometimes a hassle because he didn't like getting water on his head. So the switch from no water on the head to shower came as a pretty big surprise to us.

This morning, he came into our room and announced that he wanted to take a shower. We told him to go ahead. He left and we heard the shower start. He even washed and rinsed his hair, although Susan had to help him rinse it a second time to get all the shampoo out.

In other new behavior, Andrew has recently started swimming in the pool with his swim trainer rather than his life vest. And, at the beach last weekend, he preferred playing in the deeper water beyond the breakers rather than in the sandy surf.

With all these changes, let's hope his parents are able to change as well to keep up with his growing responsibilities.
