Levi and a pair of scissors...bad idea...

Well, here's how it all went down... I was on the phone with my Mom and doing taxes on the computer at the same time. Michael was cutting Noah's hair in the kitchen and apparently not aware of where his extra pair of hair scissors might be. All the sudden Levi comes bombing out of the bathroom and hides behind my chair, then slowly climbs up into my chair and stage whispers "I have to tell you something!" My response was to tell daddy since I am very busy, but then he says urgently, "I accidentally cut my hair." He immediately had my full attention. Oh My! What a hack job he had done to himself:



He REALLY cut the front short! After appropriate exclamations...I went back to my phone call and tax return, leaving Daddy to try to salvage the situation. Levi was very apologetic saying over and over again "I'll never cut my hair again, never!" This was the end result:




...hmmm...that's a seriously short crew cut we've got going on here. Too bad it's winter and below zero out right now since this is a much more summer ready look:





Glad I got this shot of the three of 'em together on Sunday since it'll take a few months to grow back out:






Silas is fascinated by the hair cutting ritual. He wants another stool right in front of which ever one of the boys is in the hot seat so he can get as close as possible and he cheers wildly for who knows what reason. He couldn't wait to climb up on the stool for his turn, but then of course he is a complete wiggle worm. Here he's looking mighty serious.





You'll have to forgive Michael's outfit, he took the boys XC skiing and never bothered to change out of his long johns.


As I said before...never a dull moment!

  1. I've read some pretty funny stuff in my time but to have pictures that tell a funnier story is just too great. Came across your blog! boy did it bring back memories. I was 4 with really long hair and I wanted it cut only Dad said no and so I chewed gum and stuck in my hair - hence the force haircut... way too funny kids are. Love your blog and became a fan!
