Hair is gone!!!

Well, I do have to say that the events today were so amazing! Just the amount of people (mostly men, but yes, a few women) shaving their heads and getting donations for sick kids. Its so neat tobe a part of it!

I have to tell you the story before you get the pics, LOL you can scroll down, cuz I'm going to ramble ;-)

The past few days, I have been talking to Zach about the events today. Prepping him for the fact that Papa was getting his head shaved, and mommy was getting her hair cut. He was very animate about NOT getting his hair cut. Today when we got to the place, he was still very against getting his hair cut (he has been since about 2). Every time we mentioned getting hair shaved, he said "Nooo mommy, I'm not getting my hair cut". So, we pretty much gave up on the idea, we wernt going to push him.

So, Papa gets his hair shaved (along with Phil Woolbright, Chandler and Alex Woolbright and Roger Tripp). Zach wasnt very thrilled that Papas hair was gone. But he started getting used to it.

About a half an hour later, I went up to get my hair cut, and he was very worried that I was getting my hair shaved, too (he loves when I straighten my hair, he plays with it all the time). He came up on the stage to make sure I was okay. The man interviewed me asking me various questions about myself. And he asked Zach what his name was, he said "My name is Zachary" and he asked him how old he was, "I am 3 years old" and then he asked who his mommy was and he goes "She's right here!!" and points to me. It was so sweet.

Well, about 45 mins later, after talking to Zach, Kristy somehow convinced him to shave his hair!!!!!!!! He marched up on stage, sat down in the chair, and he got his head shaved! It was the cutest thing. He was such a trooper and he was so proud of himself!! All evening he kept saying, "Its sooo soft!!" and feeling his head. I think it made the entire family tear up to see my brave little boy getting his head shaved!!

So when you see Zach, you'll have to tell him he's a brave little boy and feel his head, because he loves it! (Zach LOVES his head rubbed and his back scratched, so he's eating up all the attention!!)

Here are some pics of us!
