Poor Zachary got a haircut today.


We're finally having Easton's birth announcement/3 month pictures taken this weekend and the big boys were due for haircuts - we'll be attempting to get all 3 in some of the pictures. Zachary went tonight and Brady's going tomorrow night - we have to take them separately because they both absolutely hate it and it seems to decrease the trauma a little if they don't see each other freaking out. I took Zachary tonight...


Brendan will have to take Brady tomorrow night - he basically has to restrain him during the entire haircut.....they'll both be sweaty and covered with hair by the time it's over. And Brady's haircut is always a mess as a result. Oh the joys of raising a child with sensory issues. :) I don't think we'll be taking pictures of that appointment!

Luckily, Zachary recovers quickly from the traumatic experiences we put him through...




Of course, since we're planning on having pictures taken this weekend, facial injuries are inevitable. You can't see it in these pictures but Zachary has a lovely bruise and cut on the left side of his forehead near the hairline. I got home from work two nights ago and the first thing Brendan said was, "I don't know what happened".....I knew what that meant right away and as soon as Zachary turned his head I could see the damage. It's definitely not going away by this weekend.....you can't see it in these pictures but it'll be hard to avoid in the real pictures this weekend.

Then, as we were getting ready for dinner tonight, Brady was sitting up on the back of his booster seat - we've told him not to do this hundreds of times probably - and then we heard a crash as the chair (and Brady) fell backwards onto the kitchen floor resulting in a lovely scratch on his leg....and one on his chin! Uggh! It seems like this happens every time we have pictures taken!

This is how Brady "parks" his "motorcycle" for the night....so proud of him for wearing a "motorcycle helmet". I still need to get a picture of him riding his hog! :)
