B's first (unofficial) haircut

A few months back, in between Turkey Day and Christmas, I decided to give it a go (after much much consideration that I had NO idea what I was doing) with trimming big boy's bangs. I was falling into the trap of EVERYONE asking me when I was going to get that boy's haircut, and starting to feel a little guilty that he had to slightly lean his head back, where he could see the cartoons on the television from under his mane - haha, true story(ies).

So I asked a few peeps advice on trimming bangs because there was no way I was taking him anywhere and someone end up wacking all his hair off (especially those locks of golden brown curls). After taking each piece of advice with a grain of salt, I decided to give it a go - and unfortunately all I had to work with was my paper scissors :(

So Jon held him tight on our bed while watching the tube one night, and I attempted to cut. Jon is pretty certain that I actually never touched a single strand of hair with the blades, but I would like to think that whatever I had just attempted seemed to help Buggy see more clearly :)

And guess who forgot to take the 'after' photo? But if you saw us out and about, you probably didn't even notice the cut, because I'm pretty sure Jon hit the nail on the head about my attempt - ha!
