First Haircut

It was time for Connor's first haircut.  He was looking pretty shaggy and people were starting to mistake him for a girl.  So I decided that today was the day since it was an "early" day for me.  Got off work at 3:30 and went and picked up the kids.  Got to Melodie's right at the same time as three other people.  That means they got in the door ahead of us because we aren't fast getting out of a car.  So we waited in the lobby for 45 minutes and both kids were BORED.  That made them cranky and antsy.  After the hairdressers got done with the other three people one of them came and told me that since he didn't have a nap they couldn't cut his hair.  It was too dangerous because he was too cranky.  Funny how it was five minutes till five and they close at five.  Connor had had a nap and even though I told her that she again told me to bring him back another day after he has had a nap. Fine.
I took the kids home and we had a bite to eat.  Well I wanted his hair cut.  So we got ready and headed out.  Dave was just pulling in so we took him with us and we headed to Great Clips at Padden Marketplace.  We walked in and he got put in a chair.  He sat so still and let the hairdresser do her thing.  And she did a great job.  He looks fantastic and very man like.
After he was done Dave suggested that Audrie get a trim and she wanted it.  So she got a trim and even though it was just a trim it made her look a lot better also.  Cleaned it up.  They are both so beautiful.
Now Great Clips costed me $11 instead of $8 that Melodies would have charged.  To my mind it was well worth the price difference to be treated well and get really good haircuts.  I left the hairdresser a fiver because she really was excellent. And I have coupons so the next cuts are.........wait for it.......$8.  Yes!
