Yesterday, we took Zach to get an official haircut. The one I did before just was to get his hair out of his eyes. So we went to Cookie Cutters to have the total kid haircut experience. Zach wasn't impressed. The first sign that things weren't going to go well was that she used a hairdryer to clean out the seat from the previous haircut. Zach is much better with loud noises than he used to be but there are still some things that get to him. Vacuum cleaners, ice machines and yep - hairdryers. So he started to cry but seemed to calm down after a bit. They put in a video for the kids to watch during their haircut. He was holding it and when the woman took it from him to put it into the dvd player he of course cried. We gave him the box back to hold and that subdued him and the video sort of kept his attention.
Here is he doing pretty well...
And then.....not so well. Another stylist starting using a hairdryer on her client. That set him off and there was no turning back. He had huge tears running down his face and was pretty vocal about the whole thing. The cute part was that he kept that dvd box in his hand the entire time, while he was screaming and everything! He did keep his head somewhat still so they stylist could cut his hair without too much trouble.
Here we are back at home, happy again and looking quite handsome!

What a cutie-pie! Oh, and I don't know how you're ever going to resist those eyes with the big crocodile tears - poor little guy.
We just recently discovered that Anna is afraid of large cartoon animal costumes. We went to Chuck-E-Cheeze and Chuck-E himself came out. Anna lost it - wide-eyed, nearly shaking, lots of tears. I don't know what she's going to do if we got to Disney next year like we've been talking about. Yikes!
What a handsome little man!!! I can't believe his first birhtday is just around the corner.
What a cutie!
I've been known to cry during haircuts as well. But thats only to get out of making horrible small talk
