Haircuts for Alexia and Marco

Ricardo has been asking to cut Marco's hair for a few weeks now and I officially protested up until Saturday. I finally realized that he was right and Marco's hair was getting a little wild. We don't like hair over the ears or mullets, so it was time to save our sweet baby from both. Ricardo sat him on his lap and took the buzzer to his head. He did so well and was quite the champ. I need to get some good "after" shots, but he looks absolutely adorable. I am so thankful for a husband who takes a genuine interest in the grooming of the children and does an awesome job keeping it up. Alexia has also been long overdue for a haircut. I'm sure you have noticed that she rarely wears a clip in her hair and her eyes are often covered by her hair. Don't think it doesn't drive me crazy...it does! She hates having anything in her hair and her hair is so fine and her scalp is so delicate, that I can't blame her. I finally took her to my salon (again, at Ricardo's request) and asked them to give her a cut that will keep the hair out of her eyes. She was so excited and I absolutely love how it turned out! The "before" shot Diego came down with strep throat this weekend so he is still a little low on energy. He just wanted to sit in the chairs and watch. He has been on antibiotics and fever-free for over 24 hours so I figured it was fine to take him out. She received special treatment with the roll brush and hair dryer. She loved it. I love how this picture captures the pensive boy in Diego and the spunky girl in Alexia How cute is she!?!?!
