Surfs Up!

From the cradle to the grave, Lies a haircut and a shave.~Samuel Goodman Hoffenstein

"Wesley is such a cute baby"... Me: "It's the hair - if he had short hair he would just look like a regular baby"

So is the conversation the last couple of weeks. My surfer baby's hair was getting a little out of control so one day at my mom's house we said, "let's clean it up a little

My mom is great at cutting hair, but we just didn't know what to do with this beauty... should we cut this, should we cut that. Pretty soon is was a little short on top and it looked like he had a girls bob cut in the back. I was so afraid to cut more of his beautiful hair that we decided to leave it.

Here is after mom's haircut... still cute

Here is the back - it was a little high up the neckline and long so he looked like a girl in the back - he was still adorable though!

Preston was a little shaggy himself and with Wesley's bob we decided to visit our Edward Sissorhands:
Lu at Totally Awesome Kids Cut (my pal!)

The guy is seriously amazing to watch - 5 minutes, perfect haircut. Preston went first and then I showed him the back of Wesley's hair and asked him if he thinks I should cut it shorter to fix it, "Oh yeah, definitely" so he worked his magic on Wesley. Wesley sat so still - Lu commented what a good baby. I said, "Remember that one? (pointing to Preston). Oh yes! (maybe he does still remember Preston kicking him in the private area! - I thought he forgot)

So... a lot of money later (too much for 2 boys haircuts in my opinion), my two boys look fantastic with their short haircuts:

And Wesley is still cute and adorable - but I can't wait for it to grow out again! I love my Surfer Dude. Thanks to my mom for trying - we will try again!
