whenever it's time to add some more to our blog, i look back at our pictures to see what hasn't been addressed yet. it was so obvious when i looked. benny had a haircut. actually, he's had two haircuts by now - technically it's three, but i think the first two are actually round 1 and round 2 of the "first" haircut. i really didn't want to cut it. i loved it. but i have to admit, it was getting out of control. i wanted to wait until his birthday, but five days before i caved. he was having a hard time seeing, so i decided to take some off the top. i don't think i'll ever give benny a crew-cut. i'll be keeping it shaggy.
round 1
here's the before picture.i don't think there's anything more to say.
the first cut. and i love to see how happy benny is about it!
here we are with the finished cut (for the day).i wish we had pictures of the rest of his head after round one of the haircut. really, it was a mullet. it was so aweful that i'm sad there isn't a record that we did that to our son (in all fairness, i guess i, faith, am the one to blame for whatever benny's hair looks like). i just wanted him to be able to see so i cut off the top. then, the day before his birthday i cut the sides and the back. i must admit that it looked much better!
round 2 - much better!

i agree with keeping it shaggy--he is adorable with it! and i have to put in my request that you give him another mullet, maybe around halloween time, and take a picture of it. besides, by the time our kids are in high school, mullets might even be cool again...you never know what will come back around.
I'm impressed...and a little nervous, I'll admit, to attempt this on my boys. But, sooner or later, it will need to be done. You did a great job.
