Right after Christmas, I took the Nicholas and Dexter to visit my hairdresser Sue.  You see, their hair was getting wicked long and it was time.  I mean seriously, I am not going to be one of those mothers whose boys have long hair and their hair had been growing since May 2008.  Granted, Dexter finally looked like he had hair but it was time.  No more succumbing to peer pressure “Oh, but it’s so cute and look at the curls….”.  So off we walked to Sue’s house.

We needed to bring props along in order to ensure quiet sitting.  That is why Dexter was carrying the TV remote control.

Dexter did not want to sit still.  I think Sue got in maybe 4 cuts and we were done.  He kept swinging his head and looking at her.  Dexter is a little leery of scissors.

Here you can see that the remote control is firmly in Dexter’s hand.

Next up was Nicholas and yes, he HAD a mullet.  It is now gone.  The hair was saved and has since been misplaced.  I’m sure it will turn up sometime and somewhere unexpected.  Don’t worry though, Nic went from long curls to short ones and looked still totally cute and surprisingly grown-up after his experience.  Nicholas’s toy of choice was Joel’s cell phone.

And for reference, this is what Nic’s hair looked like before we chopped it off.

What’ funny is that they need another haircut.  I’m thinking of letting my dad take the buzz clippers to Dexter.  He looks good with a “marine” type of a haircut.  I’ll need to find a regular barber for Nic though.  Anyone know of any kid specific hair dressers out there?????
