He Did It! He Did It! He Did It!

Regular readers of my blog probably remember the post I wrote about my son Chase's ugly beard. If you are a first time reader or just don't recall the situation, click here. 

Good news! Katelyn convinced him to trim it! Thank God and Hallelujah! Check out the before and after shots...

Before

After



Of course, Chase wouldn't be Chase if he didn't try to get something out of the whole ordeal. The brat tricked me into saying I'd pay his phone bill for the month of April, but do you know what? I am sooo happy he trimmed the ugly thing, that not only did I pay his phone bill, but I scheduled family photos for this coming Sunday (before he can grow it back).

Of course, I hired a professional photographer. This occasion is too monumental to have our pictures turn out like the ones below. (These families are complete strangers to me, but funny nontheless!)

Pics for Proof

After I wrote about how much I despise my son's beard in my post Wittiness and Whiskers , some of you requested that I show some photos. 

Much to my regret, your wish is granted.



Scary and Revolting





Nasty Freakin' Beard







I wish he'd go back to this. I think shorter is better.



But, being the pigheaded, adamant, mulish, headstrong person that he is, Chase doesn't care what anyone thinks, especially his mother. (However, out of curiosity, I wouldn't mind hearing your opinions.)

LOVE YOU CHASE!
