Haircuts

The two cutest boys got haircuts this week.  And by that, I don't mean we went to Kids Hair and they sat nicely and watched Diego on the TV while sweet ladies buzzed and trimmed them and I took pictures, and they were so still and well behaved they both got a lollipop.  No, not at all.

I mean I plugged in my razor with a long extension cord, selected a close but not too close trim setting, and then I chased them around the living room, trying to buzz off a little hair without hitting them in the head with it, dropping hair all over the room.  It creates a great mental picture doesn't it?  That wasn't working too well, so Mark wrapped his arms around them and held them tight like little mummies so I could get at their heads.  The razor does a good job but there's still some hair behind the ears and at the neckline I can't get, so I have to use actual scissors for that.  AJ was somewhat cooperative for that but Zack was having nothing to do with the scissors, so we waited a day or so and then I laid him flat on his belly, held his head on the floor nice and still, and trimmed that long hair around his ears.  He didn't love it, but he has a crisp looking haircut now.  It's not like I can go pro or anything, but it's better than the mullets they were sporting.  Here's the after picture -- a day or so after:

From a distance, not too bad.....
