Jack's Second Haircut

We decided to cut Jack's hair yesterday. After watching my sister-in-law do such a great job I was a bit nervous to try. She made it look so easy, but I wasn't fooled. Over the last month I have secured the right tools - nice comb and hair-cutting scissors. I was just waiting for the right day. Yesterday seemed to fit the bill, as Jack was happy to climb on the table for the big cut. Plus it was April Fools' Day so I figured that might work in my favour if the cut turned out badly.

Well, we had a fun time doing it, and Jack did fairly well. He was awarded a chocolate afterwards - following in Aunt Natalie's tradition. He didn't behave quite as well for Mom as he did Aunt Natalie, but then again the hair cut wasn't quite as good either - but I don't think those two things were related as much as I would like to think they might be!

Enjoy the pictures. As you can tell my the video, I am more proud of and interested in his haircut than he is!

Bravo Erin! It really looks great. And, I certainly do approve of bribery in exchange for parental sanity!

I think it looks great---very masculine. Dare you to cut Charles' hair next.
