First Real Hair Cut by Mommy

Well, i've been noticing both Adam and Ethan's hair have been getting a little scruffy and as Adam will not let me take scissors to his head, he encouraged me to give a go at cutting Ethan's hair. So after a few minutes of wathing haircutting videos on the internet, Ethan was put in his high chair, Go Diego Go video playing on the laptop and then it began. His hair was wetted down and it was a snip snip here and a snip snip there. He was an excellent client, even letting me trim over his ears with a little bit of head lean to the side as if to say, be careful mom. Soon it was over and no clippers used as the last time I did that in Taiwan, Ethan had to get all of his head shaved... We stripped Ethan out of his clothing and t-shirt and Adam gave him a quick rinse in the tub. For the obvious reason of safety there are no pictures or video while I was cutting his hair. Not bad for a first time.
Sure it's not perfect but there isn't hair over his ears and it's shorter and thinned out. Yay! The 4th photo is due to Ethan sleeping funny so his hair is mussed. Not my haircut! This morning, he woke up with a bit of hair, above his forehead, flipping upwards to the sky - Adam said it was most likely he slept funny on it but I think it may be the direction I cut the hair on that side of his head. (I think too much- it really is fine. )
