Seven Months

I've been MIA for awhile; busy with work, motherhood, authorhood and a zillion other things that are pulling on me, and so my child's blog has been left to languish on it's own.

His hair is growing beautifully. My routine remains the same: I'm washing twice a month and latching about once a month. As it's getting longer, there is more time in between latching cause I just like the thickness and fullness of his hair.

I am considering enrolling him in a private school in the fall. During the interview and tour, we were told that we would have to cut his hair because locs were not considered appropriate and went against the dress code. I think it's a testament to our commitment to locs, because both myself and my son are seriously considering whether this is the school for us, despite it's stellar reputation. Turns out, I was speaking to the wrong person and the dress code only states that his hair should not fall below his collar. We can do that.

Anyway, I have been taking pictures of his progression but I think I'll just post the most recent.
