Hair cut

Grant was born with old man fringe...not a lot of hair on top and loads around the bottom. While the top has steadily grown longer and thicker so too has the fringe. One day, after Grant's nap, I noticed that his hair in the back was not lying flat, instead it looked like a hair ball, a bird's nest, a you name it! He had four inches of hair back there! He'd roll around on the couch and come up looking like Albert Einstein...his hair was simply incredible. I would comb it into submission only to find it standing and ready to fight 5 minutes later. He looked like an orphan or a step-child or any other fairy tale child of neglect. I hated to take his hood off at church because his hair would be sticking straight out the back. Ack...the horror! We finally took the clippers to his hair before it took over the house. It now is as straight and well-behaved as I could hope for. I win...for now.

So how hard was it for you to get Chad to stand in for this picture?(= Grant is so cute with crazy hair or without.

I trapped Chad in the photo...he couldn't let go of Grant so there was nowhere to run!
