Dates and Hair

We have a tentative appointment date in Philadelphia for next week on Thursday (2/17/11). I'm just waiting for the phone call to say it's confirmed and to go ahead and book flights.

Axel's hair has been growing really fast. I love it! I could see a little Justin Beeber-type style growing out. Still, he needed a little trim around the ears. Nothing much, just a trim.

I SWEAR on a stack of bibles I was only trying to trim it. Just a little. I used to cut my boys' hair all the time, and they even looked decent. In fact, for a long time Noah refused to let anyone but me cut his hair.

Apparently I'm out of practice.

Eventually the only thing left to do...was....well you know....Fix it.

His Papa will not be happy with me.

And then, my tactilely defensive prince put his hand on top of his head, gave it a rub, and gagged. I would too if I were him.

Didn't this happen with Dudley? Don't worry, he's still one handsome guy!

That's what Henry would look like if I attempted to cut his hair. Ramona would probably get the same cut if I tried to trim her bangs. Axel is still adorable, it will grow out. Eye contact and a smile, yay!

He's still handsome! Maybe it will work out better with him wearing the halo

I think the haircut looks GREAT! He's very handsome, and this really puts the emphasis on his beautiful eyes. :-)

Aww I love it! He looks great. Of course I like shaved heads. My 14yr.old has been shaved since about 2yrs.old and I started shaving Jonathon. #3 - so not too short - yet.
