Hair!

Summertime brings summer haircuts. In our house, those summer cuts come in stages. We start with the spring cut, also know as the soccer cut or mohawk. The boys have had mohawks for the start of the soccer season in April for the past 2 years (Luca has had one since he was 3 - his choice). This year Aiden ended up with one as well. Luca kept his for about a month and then asked for a buzz. Anthony lasted quite a bit longer, maybe 2 months. Aiden was the last hold-out. Every time we tried to cut it, he would put his hand over it and tell us no. We finally decided to start July with a buzzed head and the mohawk had to go. Aiden was OK with it at first, until he saw the hair fall, then he grabbed a handful of the cut hair and put it on his head. When that fell off, he continued to place his hand over his head and asked for his "pelo". He got over it pretty quickly and life is back to normal. We'll have to see how everyone's hair grows back in now!

Aiden is so cute! I loved the mohawks! Did they actually stay up on their own, or do you have to gel them? Too fun!
