Two Saturday’s in a row have produced haircuts for the kiddos. Last Saturday Hudson and Solomon took their turn. The barber shop was hoppin’ so Josh and the boys spent the better part of the day waiting their turn. Sol hates…like super hates…getting his hair picked out. It’s his arch nemesis, so we try to keep it relatively short. Same with Huddy’s hair. Plus, I like them with short cuts. I feel like they both look way handsome.
Amon was a different story. The longer the better was the story. Josh Kelley has been saying for quite a while now that Amon needed a cut, but I stood by my no cut…ever, ever, ever. He even threatened to cut it while I was in Africa and I told him I’d have the divorce papers drawn up. Then as I stared comically horrified at his holiday hair it made me realize it really was time. And then Susan put his hair in pig tails and he was adorable and looked straight up like Olivia from The Cosby Show and it further made me realize a hair cut was long overdue.
So we pulled another Saturday haircut day. All the new haircuts going on made Harper want one too. I’m one of those moms who lets their kids dress themselves…mismatched clothed children does not bother me…so when Harper said she wanted to chop her hair, I was totally good with it. It’s just hair…just like it’s just clothes. The end result was hair everywhere.
Amon did shockingly awesome. He just sat up there for the longest time…even without a sucker. He got a little fidgety, so I pulled out my trusty dum-dum. He really did great. And I only used two suckers.
The end results…goh! I just can barely handle it.
Amon’s mullet, well, it’s no longer with us. #restinpeace
And now all our kids look older and super fly.
Thank you Brooke for rockin’ those scissors so quickly and so well!
Happy Monday!

So happy I got to meet you at Kroger this morn! I feel like I had all these things I wanted to say and I just froze…like you are a celebrity of sorts! 🙂 anywho, your boys are adorable, even cuter in person!! I wanted to tell you I can’t wait to take a craft class, I wanted to tell you I’m the one who lost her mom one day after you did…all these things I wanted to share and I blew it! So here’s to meeting you in person finally and being able to spill my guts after the fact! Have a blessed day!
Well now I just wished we had hugged 🙂 Thanks for saying Hi!!!!
Next time!!! I do have a 3rd grader at MCE… hopefully I’ll see you again soon!!
Just a thought – Could Amon’s next haircut be at his naptime, which I dounderstand can be anytime? It would be the ultimate sleeping Amon picture! Love both end results, but especially Harper’s.
Aww – but he still got to keep some of the awesome curl, so it’s okay. The pig tails picture made me laugh! 🙂
Thanks for sharing your fabulous kiddos with us 🙂
OMG – you had me rolling at the Olivia from the Cosby’s comment! That picture really did look like her! I have missed commenting on your blog lately (even though I never miss a post) due to being extra busy. But I am so excited for you and your craft nights. If we make it from TX to Memphis for an annual summer trip to my in-laws I am going to find a way to get to your area if you do a craft night!
