I decided to cut Parker's hair today. This will be his 3rd hair cut. The 1st one, my sister helped me with and the 2nd was just me with pair of clippers and scissors. (Scary!) He stayed still through the clipper part, but he had very little patience for the scissors. I ended up having a few uneven parts. I have spent the last several months fixing little parts that seemed a little too long. I have been very tempted to just let someone else do it.
Well today I decided I better do it now so it has time to grow out a little before his birthday. It was getting pretty thick. He just needed a little trim, but I ended up cutting more than I wanted. I thought I was using a longer comb on the clipper, but it still turned out pretty short. I used the clippers on his whole head this time. He did a lot better. I think it is even. There is one part that is a little shorter, but overall I think it turned out pretty good. I am still not sure I should continue trying to cut my son's hair.
Parker before the haircut, doing what he loves to do. He loves to watch music videos on You Tube. His loves "Move it, Move it" and anything with the movie Cars.

Front view before the hair cut. He didn't smile because he just wanted the camera.
The final results after a bath to get all the hair off of him. He refused to wear a towel around him to keep the hair off of him.
My happy little boy.

it looks great! good job shannon!!
When my son was young, and I cut his hair, I sat him in front of one of his videos/movies. This way he would be more likely to sit still for the whole long time it took me, inexperienced as I was, to finish the job.
How cute, That age is hard to get to sit still for anything.
I never could cut Max's hair when he was little; still can't very well. Good job! His hair looks great and of course then there are those adorable dimples of his...
His hair looks great Shannon. Good job! I can't believe how big and grown up he is looking!
I'm so glad I'm not the only parent who uses youtube to get their kid to sit still. Lorelai loves watching crazy frog. I'll have to look for "move it, move it". Love the blog!
Looks great! I just shave Benjamin's head cause if I had to make the hair even pretty sure that wouldn't happen haha.
