She didn't....

I walked in my bathroom last weekend to find this. I freaked out! It was a lot of hair and I knew it had to be Kaitlyn's. So, I run into her bedroom at 10pm and wake her up to survey the damage. If you look closely you will see the wad of gum in the hair. Apparently, she snuck some gum and the gum got in her hair. Fearing she would get in trouble, she took matters into her own hands and cut the gum (and half her hair) out. I was just sick. It was on the underside of her hair so I just left it down long all week while I decided what to do. I did her hair today and realized she had cut more than I thought and I had to take some drastic measures. So, I had to cut it off. She cried, I cried. It was not a fun experience. I had to cut off about 8 inches.

Here is her new do. Notice the red eyes. She was still crying but tried to smile for the picture. It is cute but I miss all that long hair and everything I could do with it. What I want to know is why this only happens when Jason is gone. Mac cut her hair the first time Jason deployed and now Kaitlyn. Argh! Oh well, it will grow back soon enough and I will be able to do all those fun hair do's again.

Oh, her face is just heart-breaking! Poor thing! Bet she won't be sneaking gum again.

I was just noticing in church last week how long MacKenzie's hair has gotten. It sure grew fast! I'm sure Kaitlyn's will be the same.

So sad! Victoria cut hers too, but luckily it was a little in front so they kind of worked as bangs for a while. She still looks cute and it could be a LOT shorter. :)

I dread the day that I walk into the bathroom to find a clump of hair on the floor. Her haircut looks adorable, though!

I love the tampon tornado! That is too funny!

Tell Kaitlyn that Grandma thinks her hair is beautiful short. She looks so sad in the picture, I just want to give her a big hug!
