Hair today...gone tomorrow!

I have always hated cutting Memphis' hair because I LOVE IT so much.  Even when it's long it's the beautiful red color and the curls that just make it all Memphis.  Yes, it gets too long and we have cut it a couple of times but just to get it off his ears and out of his eyes.  I would also get so many comments from strangers on how beautiful his hair is.  Danny kept threatening to shave it all off but I kept saying no and I would cut it.  Until last week that is...

I went to the dentist to get a tooth fixed and let's just say it was a catastrophe and I had complications that the dentist had never seen before so he basically told me I was to be bedridden on painkillers for 3 days because the pain would be unbearable if I didn't.  I think Danny saw this opportunity of the fact that I could not even lift my head off the pillow and he SHAVED OFF ALL OF MEMPHIS' HAIR!!!  I was so mad and so upset.  Well, no going back now.  It's all gone:(  Danny is so lucky that it doesn't look as bad as I thought it would;)  We should have done this over the summer because now the weather is freezing but oh well.  He looks so much older and all the comments we get now are that he definitely looks like a Royer and just like his Daddy who also shaved off all his long hair too.

So here he is, the new Memphis.  What do you think?  If you can't remember what he used to look like check out the previous Halloween post below.

And of course what's a post without some pictures of cute Kayzee Lynn.  She needs her hair trimmed too!

Just an update on my fixed tooth.  Well the pain got better and then even worse.  The painkillers stopped working.  The dentist had to go down into the gum line too far to fix the tooth and basically he caused it to need a root canal so he did an emergency one after I couldn't handle the pain anymore and he couldn't even finish it.  I have a root system he has never seen before so I get to pay a specialist a ton of money to finish it:(  Oh well, eventually this will all be fixed and finished and I can live pain free.  Not being able to eat very much the past week has helped me lose a lot of weight though.  I am down another 5 pounds so my total weight loss for the year is now 25 pounds!!!  GO ME:)
