Uh-Oh We Have A Problem!


These are words you never want to hear. Especially as your husband is shaving your youngest child's head. Timmy usually starts the hair cuts and I do the trimming after he has shaved their whole head. Maybe all the money we have saved by doing this ourselves over the past years might not be worth it. Tonight was hair cut night. Timmy started with Andrew first. A few minutes into the haircut is when Timmy says "Uh-oh we have a problem, Bekah could you come in here." This is when you get that queasy feeling in the pit of your stomach. The problem was that the guard broke and fell off. So right on the top in the middle of Andrew's head is a BIG bald spot. We used the shorter guard to try to make it not so obvious but it still looks pretty bad. He doesn't seem to mind having a big bald spot. Timmy decided he would wait till we got a new pair of clippers before he did his own head. Here is a picture.
Poor Andrew, good thing his hair grows really fast.

at least it's on the back of his head. One more reason I don't do my kids hair.

I got a good laugh out of this. We've cut Wil's hair a time or two and I think he was always afraid we'd make him bald all over.
