A buzz and a 1st haircut


All summer Brandon has been saying he wanted to buzz Tyler's hair. I kept saying no, no, no, but finally relented and let him do it. I thought it would be no big deal. It would grow back. Right?! Well, now my poor baby looks like a cancer patient or like he walked right out of Auschwitz. He doesn't seem to mind though. While his hair was falling all around him he kept yelling, "catch it! Catch it!:. He didn't want to lose any of it. He didn't seem to mind that it wasn't on his head any more, he just didn't want it flying away in the wind. I, on the other hand, wanted to catch it all and glue it back on his head. For now I will bite my tongue and pray that it grows back quickly. It's been over a month and there has been little progress in that area.

During...doesn't he look thrilled?! I'm silently crying in the background.


the piles of hair he wanted to save

A few days later... doesn't he look a little better and a little older too!

On a better note. Gavin got his FIRST haircut on the same day. No way was I letting Brandon do it, so My sister and cousin, and I took him to Shear Madness. They do a really good job and the kids are entertained by DVD's and the cute little cars they get to sit in while they get their hair cut. I miss his little curls. It always amazes me how they grow up right before my eyes with just a couple snips of the scissors.

Look at all those curls!




After the cut, but before the faux-hawk


Yeah we're done! Everybody clap their hands!
