big changes here lately in the appearance of my two brown boys. Hudson's front tooth finally wiggled free enough for me to get my grip and execute one swift tug, suffer through the very loud "pop" that still gives me shivers, and out it came....he was so pleased. he never flinches a bit and consoles me as i recover from my least favourite job ever~ pulling teeth. (well, hold it...toilet training is still worse...) it's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me...but you gotta do what you gotta do, i guess.
haha...he's trying so hard to smile in such a way that displays the hole up front, and that's the best we could get...
then, a few days later we finally set aside some time (think one whole hour!!) to tackle AJ's hair. it was time. when his head starts to look more like a collection of lint then you've probably left it too long. and we had. but we also knew it was a slow job and so last Sunday we sat and began what must be very similar to shearing a sheep. literally, his hair was so thick~ it required first a scissors cut and then a slow go-over with the clippers.
the end result was pretty precious, we think. it always seems to make his eyes pop even more...now he can wear a winter hat and not suffer from "hat head" for the rest of the day. it's pretty sweet. funny how it brought him right back to looking like he did when we first brought him home. he's thrilled. anything to look more like his big brother is good to him. he'll randomly throughout the day announce "i like my new haircut"...."me too, AJ, me too"
