Hair Cuts

Before...pic of kids and Daddy while doing breathing treatments.

Both of the kids needed hair cuts. Lash strongly dislikes getting a hair cut and usually screams throughout the experience and sometimes requires physical restraining.

Uncle Chet decided that Lash really needed a hair cut and made a deal with Lash...here is the story according to Chet:

When he came over after church he wanted to watch jungle book instead of the falcons game.  I said we could if he let me cut his hair afterwards.  I explained we were shaking on it (and we did) and he had to keep his end of the bargain.  We watched JG and he followed through and let me cut his hair.  He freaked out pretty horribly at first, but by the end he calmed down.  I don’t know why it terrifies him so, but it definitely does.

Here’s a play by play of a 45 second sequence…

Lash:  WHAAAAA!!!!!! WHEWWWWW!!!!!! WAHHHHH WAHHHHH   (SQUEELLLLING AND OTHER UNREPEATABLE NOISES)

Chet:  Calm down buddy it’s gonna be ok.

Lash:  WHAAAAA!!!!!! WHEWWWWW!!!!!! @#$%!!!!!!!!  WAHHHHH WAHHHHH   (SQUEELLLLING AND OTHER UNREPEATABLE NOISES)

Claire:  (insert a wide variety of master jedi special education techniques)

Lash:  (in a completely calm voice)  How’s abouts only 1 more minute?

I almost threw him in the cow tank. 

After hair cut!

Thank you to Uncle Chet and Aunt Claire (and all other parties who had to witness)!

Later that evening we gave Henley a little trim and it turned out super cute!

And now our kids looked loved once again!
