Last week I was talking to my sister about how Andie needed a haircut since she was sporting the "Baby Mullett." Well, Kate must've heard me talking about it, and decided to take matters into her own hands.
Yep. She gave Andie her first haircut this morning. Mom wasn't too happy about it. In fact, Kate spent about 2 hours in her room, cleaning and thinking about what she had done. Mostly those 2 hours were spent in her room for her own safety, seeing as I wanted to ring her neck! But, I was a "good mommy" today, and discussed with her the dangers of using scissors (which, by the way, we have discussed before), why Kate isn't allowed to use scissors without Mommy's supervision, and why we don't cut other people's hair. The sentance of the day was, "We don't cut hair, we only cut paper, and we only use scissors when Mommy has said it's okay and is watching."
My little sister, Crystal, came over on her lunch break and told Kate, "We only cut hair if we have gone to school to learned how to cut hair properly." So now Kate is aspiring to be a "Hair-Cutter Man." (She knows that my friend Mike cuts my hair.)
One might ask how this happened. Let me fill you in. I was in my bathroom applying minimal amounts of make-up and pulling my hair into the ever so mom-friendly ponytail. While I was at the mirror, the girls were laughing and giggling out on the back deck. Nither one was crying, screaming, or quiet (you know what happens when it gets too quiet). So I thought all was well. Obviously I was mistaken. In the 5, maybe 10 minutes, I was in the bathroom, Kate got ahold of the scissors and went to town being a "Hair-Cutter Man."
Here are some pictures of the damage. I have an appointment to get it "fixed," or at least as "fixed" as possible tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully we won't have to buz it all off. There are several spots that have been cut right down to the scalp. Guess, we'll see. Tune in tomorrow for the sequel.
As you can see, Andie could care less, and as Rob put it, "At least it's just hair, it'll grow back. At least she didn't stab Andie in the eye with the scissors."

Tune in tomorrow, and see the "fixed" product.

That Kate. Looks like she'll be quite the "Hair-Cutter-Man" someday.
That is so sad! I would die if Parker did that to Allie! I think I better really emphasize the not using scissors without permission with him, before it's too late!
Oh my goodness!! I think that I would scream!! But, Rob is right--it will grow back. I once slept with gum in my mouth--through out the night it was all through my long hair. Oh, what we do to our parents!!
Oh...hats are definitely in and she looks absolutely adorable in that hat. Plus it is getting cold, perfect timing.
Oh Noooooo! Like you, I would have been ready to wring some neck were it Kayla! Fortunantly, Kayla loves her hair long and hates to have it trimmed, so I'm not worried about her giving herself a haircut. I wouldn't put it past her to try to do it to someone else though!
