Haircuts at home!!!


My boys were long......


long...overdue for haircuts.

Jake was sporting a Beiber and Max looked like a blond Jonas.

Don't get me wrong...they were adorable...but starting to look like pretty little girls.
Problem, the last haircut both boys got was so traumatic even mommy didn't want to go back. They screamed and hollered. They hated every minute and set each other off...one would cry so the other one would start. This was even at one of those kids places where they sat in tractor and firetrucks.

I knew there was a better way. Jas and I talked about me cutting their hair. I've read about other bloggers doing it and saving tons of time and $$$. Jas even offered I do his too!!!

So with some convincing from my coworkers, I bought a $20 set of clippers.

We turned on Toy Story 2 I cut my 3 boys hair (Jas, Max, and Jake). It was actually not traumatic at all and while it's not perfect....it's doable. And the clippers actually paid for themselves that day!!! And Jas said I could do it again!!! Yay!!! I feel like it's another rite of passage into motherhood!!!

I know you're curious...here's the after shots...now I said it wasn't perfect...


Jake

Max

This was a while ago and they're all actually due for another soon!!!!

Tot school update!

I haven't posted much tot school stuff lately- but I promise we're still doing all the activities! I'm just not having the chance to organize my thoughts into a post!
But here's proof! Jake played with these cups for a good 20 minutes this am. We stacked. Knocked down. Stacked again!
His motor skills are really getting strong!!

Jake loves books!

This boy loves to look at books! He's so much gentler with them than big brother ever has been!
