Uncle D's Birthday


Shenan turned 31 during the month of December, which means I will be turning 30 next. uggh But of course a picture with Minor by the tree was necessary. I think he came over to catch up on The Hills. Notice TV in background.

Minor's first buzz cut


So, after dinner a couple of days ago as I was preparing Minor's bath and I realized he was starting to look a little homely. I thought about earlier that day and how I commented on one of my student's appearance thinking "It looks like Noah was dropped off at school today by a garbage truck." And then looking at Minor and his hair and thinking a similar thought again. So, in effort to save time and schedule an appointment with Minor's stylist (aka: gammy) I got out the clippers and decided to do it myself. Minor doesn't like getting his hair cut, because he doesn't want his hair to hurt or feel sad. But, I talked around his concerns and began cutting.






We have referred to his hair as "hockey" for quite some time now, so we JUST had to shave off half first for Minor's Mullet for a Minute!

























Finally, we got him situated again and finished the job. Minor was over having his picture taken so this was the best I got. And yes if you are wondering there is a split in his forehead (also known as the $75 dollar superglue incident, and bite marks on his chest from his good friend Thomas at school. poor guy!
