clip, clip, buzz, buzz
We had haircuts today (well, not me, I already had mine and you’ve already seen the pictures). Henry giggled the whole way through his buzz cut, which was cute until he couldn’t hold still long enough for the poor lady to trim around his ears with the clippers. She had to break out the scissors, which scared the bejesus out of me as he was whipping his head from side to side in a frenzy of laughter. It was only 8:15 in the morning and I needed a drink. Fortunately no eyes were poked out and his hair is soft and velvety. I like to rub his head and call him the Velveteen Boy. He objects, for some reason.
Tragically, there are no cute pictures of Charlie getting his hair cut; he insisted on sitting in Wade’s lap and hid his head in Wade’s chest for most of the cut. Wade was a good sport and donned a lovely child-size plastic cape with lions and tigers on it (sadly, he has threatened to divorce me if I publish pictures of it). I was glad that he was there, as I was done in from holding Henry’s head still for the trimming part of his cut.
Once Charlie got to Starbucks and had some cow milk and a scone, he was much happier and agreed to show of his new ‘do. It was a full morning.
And the craziest part? We were all done by 9:30. AM. With the whole day left to fill. So we did some other really exciting things, like take my car for an oil change and shop for school supplies. And nap. But at least we all have good hair now!
How was YOUR Saturday?

Wade didn’t tell you that you couldn’t email them, did he? *Insert evil laugh here* Damn double negative. You know what I mean.
Darling smiles on the Velveteen boys. I love the feel of a fresh buzz cut, too. No, not on me, silly!
Cleaned. Napped. Watched the rain. Shopped. Blogged. It was a nice, lazy Saturday. Oh crap, I’m already 30 minutes into Sunday. G’night!
