After many sweaty days and bathtub whines, I practically begged this one to get a haircut!

OK. OK… so, I bribed him with a buck. That explains his cheery disposition at the noisy clippers getting run through his thick locks.

In the excitement, I forgot to grab a sheet on the way out to the backyard. You know, a sheet to protect his neck, shoulders, elbow joints, knees, underwear, etc. from little pieces of hair. D’oh! If you ever doubted my mother-of-the-year status……..!

Now, I need to figure out the plan for the baby’s hair. Oh, I love the shagginess of their heads, but gosh I do hate bath time. Yes, I’m probably the only parent in the world to say that, but I DO. I’ve never liked giving baths and the long hair just prolongs them. Andy’s hair is so fine, I think the clippers wouldn’t work. I may just have to start cutting with scissors and then try the clippers then. Any input? Cutting super fine hair at home with little to no skill? I hope a nice trim will get his strands to thicken up a bit.
