Well, I wish I could say I wasn't going to be one of the millions of Mom's who attempted to give the first haircut on their own and not regret the decision. It was never my intention to perform this task on my own. My intent was for Parkmans, Aunti M, a professional sylist, to give him a quick baby trim, making him the envy of all 16 1/2 month old dudes, this never came to pass. I must first backup and give you a small history. A few months I go I found out that "The Demon Barber of Baskerville, also makes stops in Oklahoma, in the shape of my husband, Sweeney Todd/TwinDad. I was then informed by TwinDad to , "chill out, he'd done it twice before" , dashing all the hope I 'd had for the first chunk of hair that is golden to all Mom's and is placed in the babybook under a specified location with pictures. Now, I have to submit a fake picture for the 'before" picture and the rough picture after my attempt. In my defense I will say that 2/3rd's of the haircut looks good, one side and the front, the other side, a tad short. Picture #1 reflects the side view, notice the longer pieces I missed in front of the ear, then I apparently intended to cut for about 2 inches too far after his ear. Poor guy. Picture #2 is the front view, showing how nice and uneven I was and still it wasn't short enough, it still hangs in his eyes. Mother of the Year right here.
I have now, via facebook recruited advice of friends as to where to take the Parkman. As for A.P. , she will not be touched by myself or TwinDad, we'll make sure we spare the girl from the same outcome that her poor brothers hair had to suffer due to parental stupidity !
P.S. I got a bigass piece of hair for his babybook..hehe.
