Freshly Shorn

Okay, so that makes Ben sound like he's a sheep. But he did go to the barber for a much-needed haircut. Behold the beauty of Cookie Cutters. Yes, I've written about them before, and yes, it would be cheaper for me to just buy a new set of clippers (ours broke) and cut Ben's hair myself. But he loves the little cars, the playground, the movie, and especially the sucker he gets as a treat. I love reading a magazine while he gets clipped instead of having to wrangle and cajole him myself. We tried setting up our little DVD player and having him watch Finding Nemo while Andy cut his hair, but the pros are quick, easy, and painless. Not to mention he actually gets a decent haircut. Plus, they spray something on his hair afterward that smells like chocolate chip cookies and I enjoy the scent for the rest of the day. Mmmm.

Cars was the movie of the day
Voila - a new 'do
