Luc's New Do!

Richard and I pondered over why we let our child run around like a ragamuffin. His clothes full of wrinkles and faded. His hair unkept. I decided that I should probably start ironing since Richard won't buy me one of those cool dryers with a steamer wrinkle releaser cycle thing.

Then, we decided since Richard needed a haircut before flying back to Iraq that we should let Lucas in on the fun.

We were there for over an hour - initially trying to distract Lucas with Hershey Kisses. Who would have thought that wouldn't last very long?

So then we tried books....Lucas loves books....

No luck. He wanted down. Eventually, the hairlady just cut Richard's hair. Then we dragged their toys over and let her work from there.

Now, why we thought a "professional" would do a better job than I could is beyond me. But what's done is done - next time, I am getting the $$$ that we paid this freaking lady....

Here is the finished product.
