. . . as the saying goes.
The boys both got haircuts – actually the same haircut. It’s my same haircut, too, because I have my own clippers and that’s the cut I know how to give. Neither of them likes getting a haircut, but it was a bonding experience for us: a lot of crying, a lot of hair, a lot of anger.
We have done this several ways; Lay them on the floor cut one side flip the head cut the other side, stand them in the shower naked, no mess, just hair down the drain. My favorite is turn on “Blues Clues” sit them in front of it, let them get sucked into a kind of trance,you know the look, then proceed to cut. Just some ideas. The anger is always apart of it, I don’t know why. Maybe it is because you are showing your total domination over them. Just a thought.
Can you come do Finn’s hair this weekend? And how about Brad’s while you’re at it? I’m the family barber and they’re both looking pretty shaggy since it’s not my favorite chore.
Looks good to me but I hate when Vili tries to cut Jonah’s hair. It always takes forever and ends in a big fight.
haha, I am just picturing Fischer’s mad face. That and him saying, “No, Da da”.
He’s too cute. The cuts look great. But you should give yourself more credit-I believe you know one more cut… remember cutting mine?
We’re not going to talk about that cut – that’s exactly the reason that I stick to just the one.
Okay, I am loving that Denton is as into the blog as Marissa and I’m so sorry, Denton, about your finger. Is it any better? Did you get disability yet? And, the hair looks great. I do both James’ hair, too, but too bad their hair goes TOO LONG without getting cut, and right now big James has a total fro…maybe as long as Gina’s! Remember when you helped dye my hair red? That rocked!
PS-Gina, when are you going to do a post on gas? I’m DYING to wait and was laughing SO HARD when I was telling James about it last night when he came home! Is that crypto enough so Mimi doesn’t get nervous.:)
SO FUNNY! marrissa your husband seems to be pure entertainment..ha!ha! i love it..i bet you guys are rolling laughing all the time..if and when we ever have a boy i know i’ll be experiencing this too…josh cuts his own hair and i know he’ll clip away at our son’s hair too…
