3RD TIME'S A CHARM...

Everyone that has seen Landon in person, and Jamie seeing the blog (he's out of town) all agreed that Landon's hair needed to be shorter in the back. So Landon got a third haircut this week but I stopped trying myself and took him in to my salon and Margarita fixed it for me. I know, I know, I should stick to what I know... coloring hair. Thank you Margarita!
3rd time's a charm...











Haircut #3... He looks so grown up now! but atleast he doesn't have a mullet and doesn't look like a girl anymore!

Hair cut #2... I cut his bangs shorter but didn't want to cut the back too short cuz I thought Jamie would be mad, so it still looks a little mulletty (and kinda choppy cuz the kid was moving a lot while I was trying to cut)










Hair cut#1... still too shaggy and hardly any curl left so looked pretty choppy and mulletty.











Jamie's favorite, the "mistaken for a girl" hairdo

I got in the mood to cut some hair...

I decided to cut the boys hair tonight.
Well, actually I gave Landon a hair cut on Monday before his party and it cut off most of his curls but was still shaggy and I just decided tonight that I wanted it shorter.
(usually I just have someone at my salon do it, cuz I'm a colorist, not a stylist, but whatever... I just wanted their hair short)
I didn't think to take "before" pics tonight so the "before" pics are ones I had in my camera already....
BEFORE...

Here's a more recent "before" pic I just copied off Katherine's blog

AFTER!






I used clippers on Zac and he was TERRIFIED and the longest guard I had was a #3, so his sides are a little short. But now we can spike it. He likes to check himself out in the mirror while I spike his hair


BEFORE...

This is a more recent "before" pic that I copied from Katherine's blog


AFTER!

His curls were growing out, it was just a matter of time before they would be gone, it's kinda sad. Well, no one should mistake him for a girl anymore!

I think Landon's bangs might be a little too short, but those things grow like a weed, so it'll be fine in like a week.

Sound the Alarm!!!! Landon is 2!

Landon had his 2 year birthday party this week!
We went to a park and played and had presents and cake....



Kelly Dolezol made the cutest fire truck cake!!!!


Then we went to a real fire station. One of our friends from church, Rudy Gonzeles is a firefighter there and showed us around. The kids got to look at the trucks and while we were there the station got three emergancy calls and the kids got to witness the firemen rush in (some sliding down the poles) and hop in their trucks and drive off with the lights flashing and the sirens blaring. It was soooo cool!

Landon's friends loved it!














Zac had a pretty good time too!











Now that Landon's 2 years old and such a big boy..... we got him a big boy bed!
He was so excited and slept in it for the first time the night of the party. He got out like 5 times and then finally fell asleep. (not bad, Zac got out like 20 times his first night in his bed) We took down the crib and he's maybe gotten up once or twice each time we lay him down for nap or bedtime. He's doing amazing! Next Potty training... dum dum dum!
