Chop, Chop

On Friday I took Quinn to our local kids haircut salon for a little boy haircut.   For Quinn it\’s a love-hate relationship.  He loves to play with their train table, sit in an airplane chair,  watch a video, and then get a lollipop.  But he hates the cape (we just skip that part now), having his hair sprayed with water, and the snip-snips around his face.  In the car on the way to get his hair cut, he was talking about the train table at the haircut store.   I was impressed that he remembered the table.  
Here we are at the haircut store.  Mamarazzi is out in full force 🙂

Here\’s the end result.  I love that wet, freshly combed look.

I guess Quinn didn\’t think they took off enough hair.  I know I always need to make some minor adjustments after I get my hair cut too.    This is the scene I found.

I think this might qualify as a shenanigan 😉

Shenanigans

Our home has been full of shenanigans lately.  You know, like climbing up the stairs on the outside of the banister.  I think in the above definition, 2b applies to our household.  Quinn can\’t be left alone for too long because he really likes to get in to stuff and destroy.  And he\’s getting bolder.  
Last night we were watching TV and Quinn climbed on to the kitchen island and put on my sunglasses.  Pretty harmless because we caught him early.  

Here\’s Don getting in on the shenanigans too.  Quinn beckoned Don to come ride his horse with him.

And it wouldn\’t be complete without a topple off the horse.  I don\’t know if you can see it in the picture below, but Quinn has a huge hole in his shirt where he took his scissors to his shirt.  Shenanigans.

 On Wednesday our kitchen barstool went missing.  I found it in Quinn\’s playroom.  It looks like he was pulling everything out of the closet and needed the stool to get to the high shelves.  He normally just climbs up the drawers to get to the higher shelves.   How did that barstool get upstairs?  It was a Wednesday so Marlini was watching him.

Gasp!!

Last weekend I was downstairs and Don was upstairs on the computer.  Quinn asked for something upstairs and I told him to go ask his papa for it, not knowing that the gate at the bottom of the stairs was closed.  I could here Q calling for Papa to bring him X (I forget what it was).  I could here his voice going up the stairs.  A couple of minutes later Don said \”Amy, come look at this\” in a very urgent voice.  

This is what I saw (note my very caveman re-enactment).

I should note that Don had a secure grip on Quinn at this point.  Gasp!!!!   Needless to say, the gate at the bottom of the stairs was immediately removed.
