So one day I was nursing Chase downstairs and Porter and Makelle were quietly playing upstairs. We had just had guests in town that had left the night before. I was thinking to myself how nice it was that the kids were playing so nicely together since I had my house to clean and a bunch of things to do. I put my baby down for a nap and went into the spare room were the kids were playing. They quickly ran out and then to outside. I started to take down the inflatable bed, when I saw something. It was a fair haired RAT! No, it was someones hair but there was no one attached the the head of hair that I found. I flew down the stairs and found my daughter with almost no hair on the back of her head.
I took her into our cosmotologist and she fixed it up. In the end it didn't look half bad. I proceeded to hide all the scissors in the house in a drawer that I cannot even see into even when I am standing on my tip toes. The next week Matt was home with the kids while I ran some errands. Porter and Makelle were once again upstairs playing quietly. Matt called up a few times asking what they were doing and Porter specifically said, "playing with my cars." When Matt decided he had better check he found that Makelle no longer had much hair on the front of her head. Porter got into more trouble for lying than for the hair cut.
I came home a few minutes after the incident and frantically called my hair dresser again. They said she could get us in a few hours later. As I was looking more closely though, I realized that my poor daughter who had taken two years to grow much hair at all now had really short cropped hair, and the only solution really was to just shave it all the same length. So a few tears later I called and canceled the appointment. Matt pulled out the hair trimmers and my daughter's head was shaved at 1 1/2 inches attachment length.
So, now she is back to having hair bows glued to her head. She tolerates them pretty well.
