The Unveiling!

(Okay, I did warn that this was not HUGE, just a big change!)

As evident by the "puddin' - no shoes and shirts" pictures on the previous post, it was a little hot this weekend. Gathering over at my mom's Sunday night, Austin and Logan's long, thin, sweaty, comb'over hair was a hot topic of discussion.

And in the end, we unanimously agreed to take action.

Nonnie breaks out the tools:


Logan innocently eating his poc-corn.
And Buzzfest 2008 begins.
My brother Brian takes over as he is the resident expert who does this to his own hair.

Logan didn't mind the process at all.
And Austin watched on completely unfazed by what was happening.....
Daddy moves in to finish Logan. Austin NOT liking his new spot IN the chair. Evan jumps in to try and hold him still.
And I stop taking pictures at this point to try and help soothe my baby.

Here's a hilarious video of how it all played out.



Did you hear Austin in my lap saying "tickle, tickle?" That's what we told them we were doing to their hair. It obviously did not help when we went to tickle his hair!! And I LOVE it when Logan sees the camera and gives me a big old "Cheese!" Too funny!


Calm is restored by the traditional bath and "pop-pop" celebration to complete the process!

And while I don't "mind" the buzz cut look, I have to admit I'm secretly hoping that the shock to their roots will maybe bring me the full, thick Guatemalan locks that have thus far eluded us!!

Maybe not the most exciting news, I hope that you all will agree with me that buzz cutting your babies' hair is dramatic and that this was a BIG change for us!!

(I tried to download more pictures of their after look, but having camera difficulty! Will try again later.)
