Haircuts

Koen HATES getting his haircut.  Trying to get it cut has been challenging.  We've tried cutting it ourselves but it has only resulted in a few months worth of bad pictures and finally somebody saying to us, "Don't cut his hair, it doesn't look good."

Sometimes my Mom has tried cutting it.  Most of the time we get my cousin Leslie to cut it.  She's great, she doesn't put up with any of his whining crying attitude in the chair and she's ultra-super-mega fast too.  But she is a busy lady and at some point he's just going to have to get used to the salon!  I've tried sitting in the chair with him, only to have myself covered in hair and fighting to hold on to him the whole time.

I dread haircuts.

So today I made an appointment at Beaners - the place is made to give kids haircuts!

Have a look at their advertisement:

Today was the easiest, best haircut ever.  I can't say that it will be like this all the time, but I was happy that things went so smoothly!!  Koen loved sitting on the little horsey and she even put Thomas Train up on the TV.  He got a sucker at the end and had a big smile on his face.  We were both very happy!!
