The Peanut Gallery slash Barber Shop

On this particular day in history...I, the mother of this household...decided it

was time.

The "cute" in L-boy's "cute baby hair"  had flown the coop weeks ago.

I'm quite certain that if you look closely,

you might just find a small creature nesting peacefully.

 L-boy's attempt at accessorizing was not helping the situation.

But you gotta give it to him for trying.

He's innovative.

His sweet sister and his clever mother decided that a set of pigtails might be nice.

And I must say...

HE ROCKED THE PIG TAILS.

But for some odd reason, his brothers and father were NOT impressed.

I understand their concern.

But, I did revel in his girlish cuteness for one sweet moment!

Here is the smashingly handsome L-boy before his very first "Big Boy" cut and style.

You probably didn't know that his very versatile mother doubles as a barber.

There were some very sketchy moments. 

One in which, his mother fell to the floor in laughter as she looked at her son who resembled

Moe of the Three Stooges.

But after the addition of a few layers,

with the precision and savvy of Edward Scissorhands...

She was tickled pink with the results.

In order to achieve this most excellent "surfer dude" look...

His mother resorted to bribery.

In the form of a very blue sucker.

I'm quite sure it was organic and sugar free.

He was quite delighted with the results.

He's feelin' the new look.

This hair cut definitely calls for a "cool dude" facial expression.

And the true test of a great haircut, is how it looks the morning after!!

Eat your heart out Justin Bieber!!

"And I'm like baby, baby, baby, ohh."

Those are the only Justin Bieber lyrics I know.

Promise.
