It’s been so hot here lately that Gavin sometimes wakes up from his afternoon nap drenched in sweat. He doesn’t find it very comfortable and usually cries for about twenty minutes after waking up in such an icky state. Also he’s not very understanding about holding still while I comb tangles out of his hair. So, we decided it was time for a cut!

The stylist (yours truly) had to be very skilled at cutting Gavin’s hair at a relatively even length while dealing with Gavin’s swiveling head (he really wanted to see what was happening) and keeping the very shiny and attractive scissors out of his hands without appearing to
Gavin to be keeping them out of his reach! The whole process took about half an hour and was done in the bathtub for maximum distractions and washing ease.

This is Gavin enjoying his new low-maintenance look while playing in his block fort in the living room.
