oh, my god. the passed out picture is one of the cutest i’ve seen – for passed out babies, that is. it’s a tough call on the hair cut, eh? i mean, their hair is so damn cute all longish and curly-like, but at what point do we, as parents, decide to stop allowing them to look like hippies? i was thisclose to cutting isobel’s, then a brave woman got pigtails in and now, it’s my daily goal to work some pigtail magic.

Hi Lotus!
You did some magic again this week with your camera! Do you have a new one? The detail in that rose is breathtaking, and the bumblebee, way to go! I would like to have a nibble at Braden’s little foot, can I? Hehehe!

And then I’ll say hi to Braden.

#47 by Tara on May 25, 2008 - 3:25 PM
All lovely. I love the bee in flight! We have a bunch of clover flowers – I find them more annoying than photogenic.
I say give him a trim. Why not, right? Really, I just want you to jump on my band-wagon. We’ve compromised and I think #2 is going to get his first haircut around his second birthday. But, mind you, we are not cutting off the curls – just cutting the bangs in front b/c they annoy him. But then he might have a mullet. Hmmm…we’ll see…

Once again your nature shots are stupendous… any chance you could do a tutorial on your blog?
As far as cutting his hair… tough one! My Mom went through the same thing with my youngest brother. She finally gave in. I have girls, so I don’t have to cut their hair (lucky me).
I love his hair… but… I think maybe it’s time for a trim. Sadness, I know! Don’t hurt me, k?

I cannot CANNOT believe that bee photo! Wow.
My son has curls like that in the back, and the rest of his hair is pretty wild. I recently cut the back, though, on impulse. One snip, and now you can see his neck. It will be better for this hot summer.
