I admit, I only ever (finally) pull out the clippers when they are somewhere nicely in within woodchuck stage but still shy of mountain goat status.
Holidays light a bit of a fire behind me though, so on Thanksgiving morning I finally broke down and got it done.
Most of the time, it is just laziness on my part...
but for the little mister~ I just couldn't do it.
He has beautiful hair! He is my baby! I didn't want him to look like a big boy, even though, he really is. (shhhhhh.)
But, it was desperately needed. Case in point:
He was fine, albeit squirmy (Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving on YOUTUBE helped that), UNTIL a plop of hair landed on his lap and he totally freaked out like his limbs were being chopped off.
He thought he was going to die for a minute there! But then- after the initial shock- he realized he wasn't losing limbs and all was well.
And now the Little Mister has a Big Mister haircut. **sniff**
And now, the boys in the house are again little BOYS.
All woodland creatures remain where they ought- in the woods.

That last photo...Andrew looks like a young MAN. Oh my!
sweet little angels! Great job!! :)
So cute! I had the hardest time when J.'s little gold ringlets came off. He looked s'darn cute after though, I wondered why we hadn't done it sooner. B. does the hair cutting here, I do the distracting/ hold them-so-tight-they-can't-wiggle.
I think your Judah is a ham. Yes?
Love it! They are both so cute.
{love} my nine year old boy with a fresh haircut!
sooooooooooooo cute!

They're both such handsome boys! Andrew looks like a little man and Judah is getting so big!
I procrastinate about haircuts, too. In fact, my 3 sons need me to get it this week! They're getting too close to that mountain goat status. ;)
Good job! Andrew looks so grown up! Sad to let go of the little boy in Judah, but so be it--out came a little man. What a darling.
all I can say is AWWWW...he looks SUPER ADORABLE!!! :)
I fear my oldest son's mop is reaching mountain goat status. Every evening I go to get my clippers out and something else takes priority - for over a month now!
Ok, tonight's the night! There.
(We'll see if I remember...)
Judah is getting big! Still adorably cuddly though. :P
I did it! Thanks to your motivational post. ;) I gave all 3 boys haircuts this afternoon! Thank you! :D
Precious little babes and they are definitely LITTLE MEN - if you're scared of hairy things you wouldn't want to come to my house since we all look a teeny bit like flower children. My dad said he was afraid I was going to marry a mop when I grew up...and I kind of did...just a very handsome one. :)
