Lookin' good...

Niko has been wanting to cut his hair short like Daddy. I haven't let him because I love his hair longer with curls. Well, summer has a crazy way of getting you to do things you wouldn't normally do or allow...
so...I find myself gobbling down my lunch, Matt running out the backdoor with clippers and calling Niko to follow...
Matt strategically places a chair out in the yard directly in my view and I go running out back. Now it may seem as if I had no idea he was gonna do this. I don't wanna steer you wrong. Niko brought it up over lunch, I looked at Matt and said "Well, I guess. But do it outside. I don't want that mess in the house!"...and then yes, in the blink of an eye, they were outside.


And this is where I start thinking, "uh oh...what was I thinking?"...


Look at all his hair!! It looks like little hamsters in the yard!

 

We thought he could sport an "original" side mohawk but he wasn't going for it...


Here he is...just getting cleaned up...he looks like a little man : (



So I laughed and laughed because I think now he TOTALLY looks like a mini-Matt. Well, Niko LOVES that he's daddy's little sidekick and he says, "Daddy, Daddy...do you know who's calling you?" and Matt says, "Who?" and Niko answers, "Junior!" haha...
He tells me he's gonna keep his hair like this even when he's a daddy. He tells me he never wants to grow his hair and have curls ever again. I'm not gonna argue with him. I'm gonna let him enjoy it. But between you and I, being his mommy and all, I think curls are in his future!

(cut away to a Fantastic Sam's commercial...are those still around??)
