This weekend's catastrophic event

This weekend we took Matthew for his 2nd haircut so he would be ready for his birthday. I have entered the mysterious world of male haircuts. I obviously don't know how to instruct them on what I want. I told her to get it up off of his ears and TRIM the back. She asks if we want the clippers or scissors and I said whatever. Note to self, ALWAYS use scissors. The sound of the clippers totally freaked him out and he was thrashing so badly that he ended up with bald spots where he bumped the clippers! It looks like he had his hair cut with a lawnmower! It is too too short with holes in places. Now I can't have 1yr portraits done until it grows out. Sigh.


Before the Horror...






this one was before as well, it just got posted out of sequence. I haven't taken any of how he looks afterwards yet. I did notice that there were penguins on his drape though!

    We had a similar situation at the dentist. I had to lie on the dental chair with E lying on top of me for her first few dental checks. Hang in there. Hair grows fast! xoxoxo, LA
