This is my youngest child, my baby girl, my sweet giggly Audrey.
Exhibit A
Although it would be fun to post pictures of her and talk about how cute she is and oohh and aahh over my precious little angel, thats not what has inspired me to share today.
I want to talk to you about a couple personality traits of mine. Not just any old quirks… the two quirks that when used together produce a dangerous and often painful result.
The two personality traits in question are "cheap mommy" and "oh just let me do it!"
Alone, these traits can be ok. Even beneficial! Cheap mommy at the grocery store or a Chuck-E-Cheese is a good thing.
"Oh just let me do it!" mom is a breath of fresh air when you are trying to get on an elevator filled with seventeen people and your toddler stops in the door way and decides to tie their shoe even though they just learned yesterday.
But together… **shudder**
Exhibit B
Audrey's bangs. I thought I could cut them myself. I thought I would be saving the family time and money.
I thought it was silly to take a one year old in for a 'bang' cut.
Silly, silly mommy!
Yes. I did this to my baby.
I may have scarred her for life.
Well, I may have scarred me for life. If I hide the evidence I think she'll get over it.
We’ve all been there when we’ve tried to cut our children’s hair, I’m sure. Well, not ME of course 😉
She looks lovely, Amanda! You did a great job!
LOL…you are too funny. She is precious with mommy cut bangs. The haircut doesn’t even matter when you have eyes as pretty as Audrey’s. Just put a little barrette in there and you won’t even know they have been touched. Her hair is so fine and soft looking.

LOL I’ve seen worse, you didn’t do to bad 🙂 I cut my girls bangs all the time. I remember my mom cutting mine as a little girl, she’d put a row of tape across them, and cut under the line of tape for a straight line. Sounds silly but it worked for her.
it does look cute! but better to sic those traits on her bangs now rather than when she is 13. 🙂
i just cut my 4 yo son’s hair last month – not my finest hour. i told myself it was part one in a series of cuts. . .guess part two will be when i take him in to get it cut professionally before his birthday.

She is still so adorable! If it makes you feel any better though, my mom tried to cut my hair when i was little…she thought it had to be even in a pony tail. Lets just say the hairdresser who had to fix it was not happy. lol
I think she…and her hair…look adorable!
It’s really not too bad. My husband made me start cutting his hair about seven years ago to save money. You should have seen it the first time. I kept telling him he was not allowed to ask how it looked and he was not allowed to tell a soul I did it. Now it’s not too bad. I’m no professional but I’ve finally learned so techniques that work for me. She’s not gonna know (unless of course you tell her later on) and if you keep practicing no one will be the wiser when she’s older 🙂
