just like daddy...

For the past 3 years, we've always taken Keller to get his hair cut at a kid friendly salon w/fun chairs, dvd players and game systems. The DVD player is only important if it's playing Wiggles but other than that, it doesn't count for anything. The motorcyle chair and Nintendo are a big hit even though he has no idea how to play the games...he's great at pretending. On Saturday, I told him I was going to take him to a new place to get a haircut.

In the back of my mind, I was thinking we would probably end up back at the same place b/c I just knew he would be unhappy about not going to see his friends at Sharkey's. Much to my surprise, he was fine and informed me that he needed to go to a "big boy hair cut place" so he could get his hair cut "just like daddy's".

Not only was he pleased with his new haircut, he now has a new "favorite place". The helmets, footballs, b-balls and suckers were a huge selling point w/him. He also told Tony, "daddy, you need to go there b/c they don't make you itchy."

I think that might have something to do w/the fact that mommy remembered to take a shirt to change into but we won't tell him that!
