I decided it was high-time Declan got his first haircut. His birthday party is coming up on Saturday and I wanted him to look nice for pictures and it's time to get his wispy ear covers trimmed. When we got to cookie cutters he was willing to sit on the cool car and play with the steering wheel. He was even alright with the cape they put around his neck. But then when they pulled out the clippers and turned them on, this is how it went......
and it only got worse.....
He didn't want to be in that chair and he definitely didn't want to have his hair cut!
No bribery attempt of Batman, sucker or bottle would calm this little guy
I have to give kudos to the nice 20-year old that cut his hair while he was throwing a GIANT tantrum. She worked quickly and efficiently and got it all done in just a few minutes. I kept apologizing to her and she kept saying, "Oh, we're used to it, we get cry-ers all the time." I must say, I am very pleased with the final result!
After the drama
(Look at those crocodile tears rolling down his face *sniff sniff*)
But don't worry.....after his haircut he got a balloon (which he didn't put down until he went to bed tonight). We also took him to Texas Roadhouse where he had all the mac-n-cheese, fluffy rolls, applesauce and super yummy mashed potatoes that he could eat. The kid literally ate the entire time we were there (about an hour and a half).
At the end of the day.....
A super cute kid with a super cute haircut!
