Haircut!

Tonight we finally broke down and decided that Alex NEEDED a haircut. His hair was getting very long in the front and tickling his ears on the sides. It also was pretty long in the back - so it was past due.

We decided to give him a sucker, because he rarely gets them. He usually doesn't eat them for too long, but we hoped tonight it would distract him enough that we could get it all done.

Needless to say, the sucker didn't work. We cried and screamed throughout pretty much the entire thing. So much so that Irene, the neighbor, came over and asked, "What are you doing to my baby?" We also had a few looks from Homer, who lives next to Irene......oh, well. At least we did it outside so they could see what was causing the screams. :)

Here's a shot of the handsome clean-cut man as he was getting a "drink" from the hose. Immediately after this shot, he ran through the stream, therefore washing off any loose hairs and completely soaking himself. And attracting any mosquitos that were in a 5-mile radius. (All of this rain has been good for us, but MAN the bugs are THICK now!!)
